Young professional players

Hi.

I started Airsoft when I was 9 and have been hooked ever since. I am now 13. Over the years I have acquired a lot of kit. I get mixed remarks about me having kit that sometimes looks better than the middle aged guys who have been playing for 10+'years. As you can see in the pic. What do you guys think. Please no hate

i've been playing airsoft for.... 7-8 years now? I can't remember anymore and i'm hitting 16 in 4 days (LEGAL SEX).

I haven't acquired much kit as i've only skirmished twice, but i'd done a few backyard shootouts. I also learn ninjutsu, so it helps with tactics and stealth.

Generally, I think full tactical gear suits adults more because they have the developed and muscular body to look mean and lean in gear.

Apparently people in my school think i'm scary when I wear a suit or blazer.....

all i can say about that pic is why are your goggles on the back of your head and your rifle is about to shoot you in the crutch. gear is gear. i wear a set of 95s i got in 2000.

That's fine for you mate. People in my school slag Airsoft off quite a bit which pisses me off

The googles are on the back because it was photo shoot. Not a skirmish. The gun is hanging from a tactical universal clip, that's just the way they hang

Not to piss on your chips there buddy but all I can see here is knock off kit? Think your a long way off a gear whore im afraid.

Edit: I see you have edited your post

This. Buy cheap, buy twice. Hence, my airsoft expenditure is astronomical. Like the real SureFire M600 Ultra I bought last month..

Get 'em down t'pit! That's what I say... Too big to clean chimneys at that age. Down t'pit. That'll teach 'em the meanin' o' work!

lmfao ian that comment made me chuckle, reminds me of when my grandad goes on about the 40s lol

No actually. I buy all my own kit. My mum got really pissed once when she found my wallet empty. She still doesn't know I bought a lot of Airsoft stuff.

Mind you, If i'd started airsoft around the age you did, I wouldn't still be alive as my parents would've blown their stacks at the money involved

:angry:Quote button isn't working!

Anyways- Frizzle - "I've been playing airsoft for.... 7-8 years now" Yet you've only been skirmishing twice... Wut?

You can't play airsoft on your own you know...

 

[Airsoft_Mr B]

I'm 16 and pretty much nobody else at my school knows about airsoft and I don't go skirmishing anywhere near as much as I'd like to either

I'm lucky enough that my dad enjoys airsoft too and he bought ours RIFs. To be honest though I don't like the look of my loadout at the moment. I don't have a job yet so I can't go buying gear and things.

Pfft, cheap tat!

 

[Unrustle_Thine_Jimmies]

Yeh,Jcheese is a Crye© Or Die kind of guy! He doesn't use that cheap surplus tat,that's for poor people and Communists!

Pit, PIT ! you don't get rained on down t'pit. Eeer luxury. When I were a lad it were a hole in t'bog and we had to use our hands ...

 

[TacMaster]

I've been airsofting for 3 years now. Spent under £600 total on guns and gear. A lot of my stuff is knock off except my tactical tailor rig and my issue balaclava.

I play in DPM trousers I've had since 2009.

My friends consider me an overspender.

Don't know how you could be a gear whore with what looks like Kombat multicam pouches.
