Kids in airsoft

[Dysperse]

90% of real military tactics do not work in Airsoft. Anyone who claims they do, or tries to use them to any effect generally doesn't know how they actually work.

True there. No one seems to understand that most real combat tactics are based on suppressing and diversionary actions. This doesn't work in airsoft as there is no threat of dying. Airsoft is about running around like a lunatic shooting people, not tactics. Think of it as more like a video game where you are the character... a very very expensive video game.

Not to mention the fact that everyone carries close to 1000rds ammunition, and gets to stock up again every hour.

I've spent a fair bit of time at a pistol school in Georgia, and that's the only training that has ever translated to airsoft (not AF myself, but both my roommates are, and I help at some of their exercises (drone videoing and such)). For MilSim a bit more translates, but thats about it.

Reloading is the most fun aspect of gear.

My definition is: airosft is not imitating real military action. It's imitating action movies. Milsimmers replay Black Hawk Down and such, skirmishers replay Die hard.
