You rely on the honesty of the person to shout hit and raise their hand or hear them squeal !!!.

But unless you get hit on flesh or something hard that gives off a sound how would you actually know? I'm not talking sat still with pellets flying around you and one bounces off your jacket but when your legging it about, adrenalin pumping etc?
So someone with body armour ain't gonna feel it are they? |

Hasnt the law been seriously tightened up for selling weapons these days ? I used to do Airsoft with modded M5's, Glock sidearms and loads of flashbangs, at Chobham, Lasham and other places in Hampshire.

You need to be 18 and have a defence to own an all black gun aka RIF (realistic imitation firearm). The easiest defence is to become ukara registered which means you have to play 3 games in not less than two months with a ukara registered skirmish site.
You can still buy two tones guns though if you're over 18 and not ukara registered. |
I used to go airsofting still have me M4 with tactical adjustable stock, this isn't mine but exactly same thing but mine has an uprated spring in it and fires around 380fps semi auto and fully auto!! Anyone wanting one i may sell mine, just PM me.

M4's are really popular weapons I've noticed. What make is yours?
|
What range would these guns have?

Talking of muzzle velocity – are airsoft bound by the same laws as air rifles ie must be under 12ft lbs? From memory my Daystake MK3 .177 fires pellets out at around 750fps. So it would be some serious velocity for a 6mm BB to get up to that power. I’m doing this for my stag do end of april – mostly due to aforementioned honesty issues when paintballing (and the fact your mask is fogged up most of the time): http://www.warfighters.co.uk/warfighters-reconx.asp |
Different sites allow different fps.
Ours is 350fps for aeg, 450fps for snipers |

I never mentioned body armour. Was thinking more of a jacket / thick jumper. I guess if you play regularly then the chances of people being honest are higher. I just think back to the times I have been paintballing and 9 times out of 10 honesty goes out the window even when playing with mates.

Just picked up another G36C which was sold as spares or repair. Stripped it down and refitted the hop up and it shoots perfect!
http://a3.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot...52121767_n.jpg Bit of dual wield action haha |
I used be big into airsoft! Loved it and especially seeing you get a nice couple of headshots at range :D
Here are some of my old guns - though the scope was replaced with a rather nice Trijicon ACOG so it was more realistic :) http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y95...s/DSC_6700.jpg http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y95...e/DSC_7340.jpg |
Looking good!
What did you think of the grenade launcher, worth it or not? |
How does the grenade work?

It's a riot - though at my last skirmish a 204 round grenade went off in my pocket. That hurt. A lot. :lol1: |
I've been a paintballer for over 10 years now (tourney and rec player) and have thought about airsoft , the concept is pretty much the same but it seems the airsoft players like to rein-act the military side of the game a bit too much ie all the exact clothing/style of a particular army regiment.
paintball is just a fun game for the majority of players I see, where to me, airsoft is a bit too serious from what i've witnessed. |
That is the extreme side of it but I doubt that's commonplace at most airsoft sites.
I prefer the weapons and the tactical side of it over paintball |
