Was going to say the same thing myself...I for one do Airsoft but havent been for a while due to funds but will say it's massively entertaining, Bongo you make fun of people who are doing something they love...your on here playing with an expensive 'toy' are you not?..I go with regular army guys who can actualy do something close to Rl fighting without using blanks or killing someone, I myself was in army cadets then TA and doing Airsoft all day is alot better than running around woods firing blanks all day..same thunderflash, same smoke grenades and using exact replica firearms like a M4 qmb 'Troy' for instance with Acog sight...beats the he'll out of a joystick and keyboard.

You've obviously not ever tried it but if you did giving the fact that you like gaming you'd like paintball/Airsoft too unless your sone fat f*ck who can't get out of his comp chair..

Get over yerself

Ok fair enough, didn't mean to upset anybody, I don't play airsoft it's true, I just did that kind of thing when I was a kid in the army cadets, I nearly joined the military but my late brother who was serving told me not to (he seemed to believe I could do better) I became a commercial pilot, so my 'outside' has been varied, but I will agree I spend far too much time on this forum.

~S~

Sounds a bit like me...only my Dad promised me a Moped (Vison i think it was) if i didnt join regulars so i took him up on his offer...only thing is he never got me said Moped so basically i was 'had'..went into Tigers instead (Portsmouth TA)


Airsoft is good, all walks of life and keeps yer fit too..have to agree that some do go O.T.T with radios and headsets but each to their own as i said before..they like it so thats all what matters

Much better than Paintball because of the guns...yes you can get cheap plastic crap but the full metal ones which as i say are replicas and are the way forward £250-1500.

Commercial airline pilot eh? sweet

OK sry for the hijack :)

No problem.....but I had to delete a post sharpish when I saw you posted this, nothing bad.

My Bro was a regular in the Queens and subsequently the POWRR (tigers) and was in the freefall team through the transition from the dragons to the tigers.

Not an airline pilot, I used to fly SAR/surveillance for the Coastguard (fixed wing yes it did exist), now I fly private jets.

Yep Private jets still makes me not like you just as much..guess to you though its just a job..

you had to delete a post??..lol

Wouldnt be the first time we have had a run-in... I resort to Yoga now and stress balls before i click 'New Posts' ~S~

Lol yeah a qiuck delete but it wasnt any sort of slagging off, I just felt a little hard done by, I prefer getting along with folks.......mostly :rolleyes:

once again, for the sake of science, in the movie "Idi I Smotri" there is a scene where they used a real German MG with real live ammunition, it was recorded on film, so what you see is what it looks like in REAL LIFE. Hope this helps a bit in the never ending debate of what tracers actually look like.. :rolleyes:

have a look from 4:14 and even better at 6:29
