Anyone airsoft?

Hey, anyone follow this hobby? For those who don't know, its kind of like paintballing but with replica rifles and pistols. Responsible players play on a closed in environment with permission from the owner for safety reasons.
 
I used to a couple years back. I was rockin a TM M733 with two 8.4v 1100mAh batteries. Only had the standard 70rd mag and a 300rd hi-cap though.

I had a red-dot sight and fake silencer, but i took them off because they got in the way for woodland battles.

As for a sidearm, I switched between a TM M8000 Cougar G and a UHC USP NBB, depending on if i wanted to deal with the green gas.

.20g for the M733/USP, and .25g for the Cougar.

Pretty fun, but it got old trying to find people to skirmish with.
 
Me and all my mates tried it once. Great fun but you have to rely on everyone being honest as there is no proof that you hit someone. We all had a great day even with the cheating bastages who didnt own up. It was great running around in the woods pretending you are 8 again :)

Yeah getting hit with a paintball hurts. Not so much with the airsoft though.
