anyway, I was looking at a gun like this one and I was just wondering if that's maybe where I'd want to start out, I really want to get into Airsoft seriously, that kind of sport has always been what I've lived for (paintball, Counterstrike :P, stuff like that

First, you don't want a gun like that as your first gun. The JG guns can be made into a reliable airsoft gun, but you have to open the mechbox and do some work to it first. IE, it will probably cost you another $50-$100 in parts to make it come anywhere near as reliable as a TM or CA. Go for a really reliable gun first. When I was getting into the sport, I was looking at the cheaper guns and I finally went with a Classic Army, and man am I glad I did. I have a gun now that I know I can rely on and won't stop working half-way through a game (Wasaga game aside for those that were there....).
If you are serious about airsoft, I'll tell you right now it IS NOT counter-strike. If you think it's counter-strike you are going to be dissapointed. It also doesn't play like paintball. There isn't much speedballing involved. As Greylocks said, get yourself out to a game and see what it's all about.
