Evening out of curiousity do any of you guys/gals do airsofting/skirmishing ?
if so tell us about ur local sites or anything else you want like:
your amoury or load outs (i'll post some of mine l8er)
experiances with the sport
post pics of ur at ur site
likes and dislikes !
or just general chat !?!
(for those who dont know the sport its like paintball mixed with millitary
reinactment only with no paint... )
out of curiousity are you going for the TM version or the G&G? i hear the tm
wood looks slightly more realistic tho lacks the strength of the G&G
version
anyhow ive just paid for me soc16 so it should be here soon ^^ (the soc16s the
shortened version of the G&G 14 with a ras rail and red-dot)
im going for the Marui wood stock. . . i got to hold both the G&G and Marui
at a game, and i like the marui much better; especially the finish on the stock
and magazine
plus marui is the only AEG company i trust because of their internals
i also heard that the dimensions on the G&G werent completely true to the
real M14
G&G have been very good custumer service wise corncerning their m14s with
free replaicement gearboxes if yours fails within the first year also the 2nd
gen g&g m14s are a vast improvement over the original
not sure about where u are but here in the uk TM are taking a real beating since
they refuse to open an ear to the market to the west
Manufactures like star G&G and ics have moved up the market considerably
making weapons ppl want to see also Star just released their new M249 for
£370quid !?!?!?! compaired to the
£799 of the Top original.
And they've got the enfield L85a1 out soon (british SA80) which TM are romoured
to be making tho star will be full metal 1.1 replica of the original its also be
full metal and comes in 4 different versions ranging from the LSW support type
to the AFV compact type
btw i belive wgc.com have new realwood stocks for tm m14s !
heh heh heh.
Reminds me some good memories.
I used to do Airsoftgun when I was in high school.
But I didn't have a lot of money, the only gun I bought was the Desert Eagle
50ae with extended canon (do you remember the last upgraded gun Leon had in
Resident Evil 2 ? I had his).
I couldn't do anything against my opponents, they all had M4 and Glock
17.
The sites ? Well I didn't do it in any club. I did it with some friends of mine
so we went to a dismantled local area and we fought in there.
By the way, I'm french. The area I was playing in was behind Versailles castle
(the castle were king Louis XIV lived), there was 1 mile away from there a
dismantled factory located near the railroads.
The thing I really enjoyed with Airsoftgun was (is should I say) the realism of
the weapons. They are so beautiful ! Actually, I'm looking forward to find a
original gun and maybe customize it. Creating a gun noone else but me would
have, that's the idea. But I'm still hesitating with a semi-automatic or a
revolver type one.
one reason i choose TM is because i trust the quality a bit more; my AUG hasnt
failed me, and from what iv'e heard (and experienced with my AUG), the AUG, AK
series, M4 S system, and M14 are some of the most durable guns out
there
TM's M14 has just the same amount of metal parts as the G&G, but G&G's
magazines have this sand-paperish finish that shines like glitter
really, the only G&G gun i would consider getting is the UMP
i was considering the TM aug a while back but im gonna wait for classic armys
version
im more a fan of classic army because imo they make the best armalites and mp5s
also most of their guns are upgraded out of the box
my m15spc came with a full metal gearbox with hardend steel gears, high torque
motor, steel brushings, the full works with a full metal body and ras front end
and to round it off a carbon fibre stock and pistol grip.
i.d heard about CA's internals problems but tbh i havnt had any with my spc then
again it has a newer version gearbox than the original set of m15s by CA
i also heard about ppl having probs with the hop-up but again ive never has any
^^
btw Seki wot kinda gear do u wear ? =]
im in German flecktarn atm tho im kinda edging over to digital marpat
I've just got me one WA Strayer-Voight infinity 6" Lmtd. She's my baby.
I've never been in any skirmish though, since it's illegal in NYC. I'd TOTALLY
be willing to see if i can smuggle it around for a game out of the NYC metro
area though.

btw i tried paitball a while ago..hated it tho
im so fracking addicted to airsoft. . i have a Tokyo Marui AUG Special Receiver type
the TM M14 wood stock is on my christmas list ^_^
my local site is an abandoned, dirty, warehouse; but its cool. . . just played there yesterday
i need to take some pics, but i either forget my camera, or get too carried away playing the game to take pics
the gun in my sig is a tokyo marui MP5J
I currently have a CA g6K on the christmas list =D and should have a soc16 with me in the next few days (oh the joys)
heres a few pics of my collection
your site sounds cool unfortunitly we dont have any urban sites here so its all mostly woodland

im hoping to get an M14 for christmas ^_^

Other gun I'm fond of: Colt Python 347 4inch. silver wood cross.
airsoft guns are alot cheaper now that wot they where 3-4yrs ago u can usual pick an AEG of the net for just over £100 which isnt bad
one reason i choose TM is because i trust the quality a bit more; my AUG hasnt failed me, and from what iv'e heard (and experienced with my AUG), the AUG, AK series, M4 S system, and M14 are some of the most durable guns out there

i can also run it on a large 10.6volt battery =>
CA's externals are good, and they are upgraded, but i dont trust their internals
i like my TM AUG. . . its just as durable as a CA gun
someone hit the takedown latch and the whole receiver and barrel fell about 4 feet; didnt even scratch it
i.d heard about CA's internals problems but tbh i havnt had any with my spc then again it has a newer version gearbox than the original set of m15s by CA
i also heard about ppl having probs with the hop-up but again ive never has any ^^
btw Seki wot kinda gear do u wear ? =]
im in German flecktarn atm tho im kinda edging over to digital marpat
btw heres a nice pic of me at another local site
i just have basic woodland BDUs, a boonie hat, and some OD web gear that appears to be vietnam era :P
heres a satellite photo of our site (the one and only unfortunately)
I have an m4-s, and a m733. I haven't played for a while, but usually play indoors and once in a while at Hollywood Sports, in Lakewood Ca.
california always gets the good stuff
heres a couple of my guns:
i gave it a "stove-pipe" jam. . . the shell actually ejects when i pull back the cocking handle too!
i also painted my springer P99 just for the hell of it:
its about time i put my collection of shell casings to good use, lol
nice pic of me (to the right with the ak) and a friend at out local site few days back
note i photoshopped the pic to look more like nam adding smoke and such...
I've just got me one WA Strayer-Voight infinity 6" Lmtd. She's my baby. I've never been in any skirmish though, since it's illegal in NYC. I'd TOTALLY be willing to see if i can smuggle it around for a game out of the NYC metro area though.
i just got a KWC P99. . . not the best GBB, but it was a gift, and it seems to work just fine
i got an ausome little HFC mauser broomhandle a few weeks back it is NBB but its full metal and spits out 420fps on green gas ^^;
can you tell which is real?
the top one ? =D
my mauser =D
