Airsoft 'SkirmishHD'

My experience of airsoft is that its fun with friends as then your more likely to pay attention to the rules, otherwise its full of cheaters who dont admit when you hit them.

Ahhh where I go, its like a family, everyone plays by the rules and the marshal makes sure of it. 'One big happy family'

When I went it was just full of ex-army (probably TA) marshals who thought they were gods gift to shooting things & folk with full body armour (elbow pads, helmets, everything) and voice comm equipment acting like complete ****s.

Would never go again.

What's the deal with people walking behind their team-mates and putting their hands on them? Is that "buddy re-gen" or are they just fondling? Either way, how do you win?

Thats it! Where I go there are people who are taking time off from the army, police officers, but they know how to have a laugh which is where there difference lies. Good Fun!

Yeap thats buddy re-gen, you win by what you are told to do, this could be anything for example capture the flag, normally a re-gen from a buddy takes 10 secs.

I just find it all a little embarassing to watch really.

Also, is there more to it than camping behind trees waiting for the other team to move?

Of course there is. you sometimes have to come up with tactical plans for your team to even think about winning, which could use explosives like.

- Grenade's
- Smoke's

Or sprint as fast as possible head on into enemy fire?, As i like to do, nothing scarier then a couple of guys running at you with Retarded masks on spraying in your direction

How are you supposed to hide when your guns are bright green?!

Thats what you call two tone 'brightly coloured' and some people have to use them as they are not allowed full black which looks like a real gun. You can get a licence which then allows you to have whatever you want but the two tine is mainly for the younger players.

Also you pay a premium for the "replica" models.

And you will need a licence to buy them, which you will have to have written evidence from your chosen Airsoft Area.

Also be 18+

Dokinator · 17 Jul 2011 at 13:35

Yeah and that aswell aha
Replica models are by far the best

see if you can spot the £1,500 gun in the video...

Kutter · 17 Jul 2011 at 14:24

I much prefer urban sites.
Any one know if south yorkshire airsoft is still going? Their site at camp proteus was brilliant.

You'd think that criminals would have caught on and simply started painting their real guns bright green, so that no one would report them if they spotted them and just think it was a toy

Bloody hell can you imagine that, but then the criminals might think that people wont believe that its a real gun and wouldn't be scared which is what the criminals want.
