I've never understood the whole airsoft thing. No offence to those who enjoy it. Last time I played "Japs and Commandos" was probably 1978. :D

It depends where and how you play. The site that I go to you get Royal marines and it is very good fun. Everyone's entitled to their own opinions. Don't get me wrong, its a game for men acting like kids again but everyone enjoys themselves.
 
Not the airsoft/paintball debate again haha. Run around like idiots or use tactics and play realistically? I know which I would do.
 
Just trolling ^
I got shot by a bb yesterday that drew blood, I would like to see a paint ball penetrate the skin?
We do this for fun, you cannot compare this to fighting in the forces at all

So you've never actually played it then? You can feel it quite well trust me. If it hits an unprotected part like the legs, arms or if you're not wearing a vest you're probably getting a bruise too.

Totally agree, you cant knock it untill you try it. Its an activity that people enjoy at the weekend, slightly different from actually joining the army. Could say the same thing about paintball, they might aswell join the army cos they play with guns haha
 
Yeah opinions are fine, just that everyone says painball is better when they havent tried airsoft. Everyone trolls

Airsoft is awesome! It's en expensive hobby you want your own kit, but it's a lot more fun that paintballing. I go Airsoft regularly with my AK and Colt 45 pistol, GOOD TIMES! All I can say is give it a try.

Yeap, expensive it is. Once your into airsoft there is no letting go.

I've been paintballing about 5/6 times over the years( Edit - it's not really my thing). Never tried airsoft but from the videos linked so far (I've skipped through each of them so could have missed the action!) nothing seems to happen. The last one to be posted seemed like a walk in the woods with bags/stuff for no reason. Again, apologies if I skipped the action without realising.

The last video does not have any action in as this was a military simulation and the team went un detected.
 
I have been having this discussion with my mates. A majority say they pay for the experience which I can agree with but I would like some engagement. I can still imagine it being good though, proves they did a good job to go unseen I suppose

If you want non-stop action airsoft you need to be getting to CQB sites not woodland ones. I recommend the Academy in Leamington Spa, it really is like a real life game of counter strike.

Thank you for the recommendation. We have a CQB video coming soon for you guys

As cool as the tech is, I just can't get over how unsatisfying and unrealistic the sounds are.

"tick tick tick" Just does nothing for the experience, especially when you take into account the amount of money, time and effort airsofters put into getting all the right gear and trying to look the part.

Also, what is the point of that green bog rol... Sorry mortar? Is it just for show? You could lob a grenade that would cover the ranges it seems to be used for, surely?

The mortar we use is not for show. It can launch a grenade 10 times further than you can throw. also as for the sound I do agree, but it is something you get used to. if you want something that sounds a bit better you can get a gbb weapon (gas blow back)
