Loving the socks @Aengus

My team socks from rugby! Pretty tactical if you ask me.

Tbh I would much rather play tournament style speedball than airsoft but there's no such place in Scotland @Samurai

Literally play with real military mindset, volume of fire and violence of action just less reserved because well no death.

They are very tactical for the application of speedsofting
Personally, I'd love to give speedsoft a go but the cost of the gear behind it for a proper speedsofter is probably a little outside my budget right now lol *looks over at his skirmish kit* got a bit money happy there... still not even bought the stuff for maintenance on it... hmm... I think I need a payrise...

But yeah, speedsoft looks like a lot of fun to me... Guess ill have to make do with just general skirmish kit for CQB for now though. (not that it's a bad thing, 11.1 Lipos and all that so can get some decent speed going)

My kneepads were £6 from sports direct where does the cost come from?

 
The HPA setup that I will want and the fine tuning of the gun lol.
It's more the fact I can't get the trigger response out of the AEGs so wouldn't quite be a "proper" setup. Obviously it'll do the job. Just not gonna feel quite right.

DSG, decent gears and a decent motor can be had for well under £100 then chuck in some sort of microswitch trigger then you're set.

DSG? *goes to google then comes back before i even typed anything in* faster if someone explains it because I am a lazy teen-im 20... hmm... ok guess I better be adult and google it myself lol...
(I started airsoft in September and have zero tech skills lol, scared to take apart either one of my guns in case i break/lose a part in them)

Oh and I second the "if it works, it works"  same with the "if it's stupid but works, it works" approaches

Good read. It's not as hard as you think it is. Considering saving up for a hicapa race build or a stubby dsg m4 as a loaner.

Alright I will have a read of that at some point. Thanks :)
Although that still requires me gathering the courage to take a gun apart. Hmm... Guess I can ask in the Classifieds about a cheap one thats already broken so then I can break/lose as many parts as I want lol.

 
So FINALLY got some photos of my CTSFO loadout. It's a poor mans effort, costing below £300 (Considering my own topic post to post everything inc Links and individual photos of all gear, if allowed)? The "actual" load out cost over £1000, and I really like it, so I have picked out what I find as close to, on a budget :)  Just missing patches (police ones) and knee pads. And of course, I have added my own personal touches as unique is what sticks out more right?View attachment 30998View attachment 30996View attachment 30997View attachment 30999

So what you are saying is Italian airsoft is like the Crystal Maze but with airsoft guns :huh:  
Click to expand...
that's competitive airsoft..

normal sundays are more or less a series of attack/defense, using some of the "competitive" rules (15m time limit, 30m max from the flag for the defending team, team balancing usually is either 3:2 or 5:3 for the attackers)...

unfortunately there's no place for speedsoft here... it would be cool though to play something less tactical and more "basic"

 
@Skara

Wow, even your skirmish is more competitive than the stuff at my site lol... Generally just capture the landmarks both sides attack/defend them. Team with most landmarks at end wins.... Or actual story driven where the most enforced rule typically is "defenders cant cross the border" which is down the centre of the map usually.

The sad thing is: there's not much variety, we don't have milsims (a team tried to organize one in 2010, it failed miserably), I wish we had fields like the mall in here.. But I'm afraid that they won't last very long, costs are just too high and you'll never get the money to pay for the field rent and all that stuff :(

We do have one cqb "field" in which a speedsofter can feel at home, but it's quite illegal to even be there (property of our Navy even if it's abandoned).. Also the people who go there to play usually have guns that shoot way too hot for our regulation, they don't have an insurance and usually they're dickheads who play just to hurt other people.. And to make them call a hit you basically have to shoot them with a real 7.62..
