It's a NBB and probably okay (it shoots, right?) .. that's the USP one? 15 rounds, with a spare magazine. It would be okay as a sidearm, but if you plan on going up against full auto rifles, you'll probably find yourself outgunned pretty fast.

2) I'm more like a "rushing sniper", i mean i dont want a sniper gun but i want something to snipe a bit with... well can you show me links of guns good for it ? (links very appreciated because guns' names don't help....)
Guns don't make snipers; skill makes snipers.

This isn't paintball, any gun can be used to "snipe a bit with". If you plan on "rushing" anything more than the Dead Player Area/Safe Zone, you want an assault rifle (or SMG, whatever tickles you). A tuned, stock AEG is reasonably accurate; well tuned/upgraded AEG can be extremely accurate.

You might want to find airsofters in your area and go check out a game and try some guns out so you can discover the performance of a real airsoft gun.

3) Being new mean that i have to buy some must equipment... can some1 link me this equipment (with price sure) ?

Just for your informations my budget is like between something cheap and middle quality (maybe 400-700 CAD for the gun and not too much for the equipment :xmas: )
There's a lot of places to buy gear, depends what you're looking for.

Surplus stores, you'll be able to find BDUs. Pball places you can get your goggles. You can find stuff online, too. Get good goggles, you only get one chance to save your eyes, so that's one place you don't want cheap out on.
