Airsoft Habits

[PopRocket123]

What's an odd habit you've picked up because of airsoft? This can be on or off the field.

For me it's holding my rifle on the bottom of the magazine between games, even though I've used mid caps for years and only occasionally use high caps. That and walking around outside of airsoft which my trigger finger sitting further forward than my other fingers.

An occasional habit of trying to wind the bottom of my pistol magazine ? (high cap hero ?)

Guessing ranges to various things while walking the dog. And then checking my range estimates by pacing it out.

Not strictly airsoft derived, I’ve been doing it forever but I’ve been increasing at airsoft ranges.

Walking through wooded parks looking for enemy ghillie snipers.

A lot of my job is driving around rural areas so often find myself thinking that'd make a good site.

Trigger discipline on electric drill, portable dyson etc. Bit loony but that muscle memory....

When walking or driving past certain areas, always looking at the terrain, with strategies going through my mind! ?
?GAMBLE?

Most recently, Gemini Man....IWI Galil ACE GAP39SB.

As mentioned above, the questions of 'how would I take/storm/defend that' (with airsoft in mind so i'm also thinking of respawn points) 'that looks likes a good sight'.

also as @DerDerr mentioned, trigger discipline on house hold items. 

My battery management has got better for my console controllers as well

Glad I'm not the only one to do this..!  

Not bad practice TBH, as I shoot HFT as well.

I've started with casual paintball before moving on to airsoft, so every now and then I notice myself shaking my rifle if there were no bb's coming out (in paintball this means you loossen any paintballs that are stuck in the hopper, but in airsoft, playing with hi-caps, it just means you're playing the maracas.)

At the start of a game it can also mean you’ve switched guns and got over excited by the abundance of targets in front of you, spamming your trigger finger and in seconds cant work out why it’s stopped shooting.

Courtesy of my head cam, there is footage illustrating my confusion that everything’s stopped working until I work out that I need to reload

I can't even pick up a drill now without putting them on.

Same! I think I just like to feel like I'm getting my money's worth. I think if I had a gas mask for airsoft I'd probably end up putting that on too.

 Especially when you see these buildings around your city that have been abandonned for years or you cant remember how  long the "to let" sign has been on them

Went to see that film in the cinema (simpler times) and it was the standout from that film.

Remember craving once since seeing it for the first time in one of the Resident Evil films. 

Would love an airsoft version.
