Hey All, Been looking at starting a hobby which would make me a little more active than I currently am and Airsoft peaked my interest! Currently sitting at 275lb (and only 5"10) - I'm somewhat overweight! I used to have fairly good stamina for a fat-un, playing Badminton fairly often, where I would get out of breath but would able to keep up with the session/other much fitter plays! But this was pre-lockdown and now my stamina has bottomed out and don't last as long as I used to, though I hope this fixes itself fairly quickly once I start getting active again. I'm fairly shy and take some time to get comfortable in the environment I'm in when its unknown to me (unless there is beer involved... then im alright!). My main reservations are meeting/making friends with the locals and the impact im gonna have on others due to my lack of fitness. I've been reading/watching alot about Airsoft and do want to take that leap to give it a go, but would make it a whole lot easier if it was with a few people who are already into the hobby and would have the patience/banter to support me. So if anyone has any tips/tricks or fancies introducing me to Airsoft locally that would be awesome Thanks

It was a great day for sure. I really enjoyed it too, despite being on the losing team and even though I basically just held two positions through the whole day. I was covering a flanking route through the whole morning (path by the field that heads to Paradise) and then covering another flanking route for the whole afternoon after lunch (ferns on the border of dark woods, near to #8 tree). I wasn't really feeling the VSR though, so next game day I'll be bringing the m21 along again. MED comes up way too often and I'm rarely making those 70m+ shots that my VSR can do with its 2.3J with ease that my m21 struggles to with it's 1.1J. Were you on yellow team? Yellow team definitely turned up and definitely deserved the win; they played hard and played as a team. Blue team just didn't show up as much. The team Beans group and the Defiant group were propping the team up, but there was only so much we could do That all said, I actually really enjoy being on the losing team, as long as it isn't a complete stompest.

Was a good day, some great objectives to play, some excellent team play with mot of my friends now on radios, and I always love being able to play the whole site. My rifle is performing nicely, just needs to be made a touch more accurate. New pistol was pretty disappointing, even after I thought it was lifting bbs. probably just needs a new rubber though, so there's still hope. Also got shot in the ol' jewels, so that's one off the bucket list I hope to never repeat.

He dude. Welcome to a world of fun. I’m no where near you, but would say, get yourself along to a site near you and I guarantee you will wish you had done so sooner. I guarantee it. Most airsofters are welcoming and inclusive, irrespective of your personal perception of yourself. just go. You will not regret it. good times mate.

The one on the right looks like the Morita

Ah yes. Getting that way myself... can't be arsed with social media anymore or the dickheads that inhabit it and seem to think their opinions are of importance. Anyway. Nothing new here but took this pic of my two main plastic blasters with pet Xenomorph looking on. Thought it looked quite smart so I'd share. Nothing special but I just liked the shot.

I blame getting older and assuming everyone else did too but there's an endless summer of kids.

Is this your first time on the Internet? ?

If we are remenicing about the days of yor (or some shit) my quickest win in Warhammer Fantasy (before gw actually let the bad guys win, - it was grim in the past as well) was in my opponents first turn. They went first - his Vampire Counts vs my goblins & orcs, billy big bollocks lines up his large unit of black knights lead by The Count himself does shenanigins to get a charge off. He gets off put by my smile getting bigger and picking up dice.....release the shroomed up balls of death that were night goblin fanatics all somehow pile into the count killing him outright as the poor guy conceeds, didnt bring any necromancers. Good times. Picked up an Eldar force for modeling and painting purposes with thoughts of finding somewhere to play.

First game back after a knee reconstruction and also my first game of 2021, felt good to be out and about again. An open day at anzio with first and only. Good day, nicely run; some slight longer breaks for the less fit, and from what I saw some solid marshaling (taking no bull and following up on the site rules and even ejecting where needed).

After the MP7 and the HK45, I said I wasn't buying anything else. I would've stuck to it, but I was given an offer I couldn't refuse. £280 for this beast, now I just need the mags to come back in stock somewhere so I can get a bunch of spares, because 35 BBs isn't enough. Come on, Tokyo Marui, get some more mags out! ? Fired it on the range today and I'm never going back to AEGs. It was so much fun to shoot!

Lol, he definitely wasn't det, to be fair he wouldn't let me play with it (ooh er?) so il assume it was the price western, still pretty awesome, couldn't tell he was carrying even in a suit.

Was in Egypt few years ago & had a bodyguard with us, a local cop, so I asked him what pistol he was carrying, he laughs & says "no pistol", opens his jacket & he had this exact rig on, cool as f#ck ?

New handguard setup: I kind of like it black.. debating on whether or not to even get it cerakoted red now.

So you’ve consciously made the decision to upset other players(because it will) and possibly ruin their day simply because you can ?

I think he means that anybody getting hosed by that on full auto is going to be a bit pissed off. Site legal is one thing but taking 15 hits when one or two will do will annoy some people to the point words will be had.
