I'm mid 40s and I've enjoyed FPS video games for years, so when I saw some airsoft videos and thought "I don't give a shit if people think it's daft, I i really want to try that!". My friends and I had Airsoft guns in the 90s, but never played, so the modern scene looked awesome. I went to one of my local fields recently and despite struggling a bit with the social aspect (went on my own and to be honest I've got a bit of social anxiety) I was FULLY into the game. Soon as the start klaxon went, I was thinking "yeah, this could be for me!" Defending a base while the enemy poured grenades over the walls was just the best! And Good lord, crouching for hours behind cover is a good work out for your quads!!! Just wanted to say "Hi" and i can't wait for next time, where I promise to try and chat more!8 points -

Welcome to the sport, I'm 40 and I've been playing for years now (think it's approaching 13.....man I feel old). Anyway, I wanted to make a few points. 1. Hold off buying too much. It's easy at the start to think, it's amazing, I'm going to do this big time and spend a fortune. Most of what new players buy is crap and they realise it's crap after not long. Also, it's as easy to lose the love for the sport as it is to fall in love with it, then most of the money youve spent will be wasted. There's "airsoft" bits that really get some people and make them fall out of love with it. 2. Everyone at airsoft are adults, dressing up to play pretend toy soldiers.....a bit like that trick where public speakers picture everyone is naked, you should try picturing everyone there as a massive nerd into playing toy soldiers.....which is exactly what we are so there's not really much reason to have social anxiety around us.....except for the neck beard body odor stinkers....avoid them. 3. Everyone loves to talk about their gear and guns, sometimes it's hard to get them to shut up, even if you didn't ask. Great for starting conversations but can be extremely dull. 4. Try different sites, some sites are great and some are crap, most are ok. But you could be going to a crap one and not realize it.....or you could be going to a great one and experiencing a crap one will make you appreciate the one you have been to. Anyway, welcome and stuff.7 points -

Indeed; Mr Bailey encapsulates all of the worst aspects of airsoft players. He is a piece of shit.6 points -
Hey Andy, welcome, exactly how "new" to airsoft are you ?, played many games ?, own any guns yet ? The reason I ask is many people like the idea of being a sniper, fueled by movies, YouTube, or video games, but the airsoft reality is very different. For starters, while the fps limits at most sites for snipers are a bit higher than those of regular aeg's, up to 50%, that's not guaranteed out of the box, nor is accuracy & range, sometimes even a reasonable brand needs a bit of time & money invested in it to be worth using. Then there's the style of play, a mix of fieldcraft, patience, & a particular mindset will decide whether sniping is for you. & then, even if you've ticked all those boxes, does where you play lend itself to sniping, plenty of cover with long sight lines etc. All things to consider ? EDIT: in case your not aware, fps in airsoft is a bit like hp in cars, a 50% increase in power doesn't equate to the same percentage increase in performance,far from it, even when harnessed properly.6 points

Hmmm... We're all one team (oh wait, we're airsofters) We're two teams (oh wait) We're dozens of individuals with the same objective (oh wait) We're dozens of individuals with our own objectives (that's better).6 points -

L115A3 This is the ARES AW338 spring version. It's all pretty much standard at the moment, needs some work internally. Externally I managed to source the correct flash hider for this. The brand is calibre, and had to order from abroad. But never heard or seen them since. I know ARES did do one similar for their Stryker range, but the dimensions made it look fatter than it should. I was also led to believe the AW338 barrel is slightly thinner than that of the stryker, leaving their flash hider too loose a fit. I've added extra serial number stamps on the bolt and handle as is done on the real thing. Managed to source the correct Type scope mount, and a replica S&B scope. Then I've had a dovetail to picatinny scope mount 3D printed, correct to the real one. Now at this stage, it is just a prototype. And still working on the finer details. Other part 3D printed, is the L115A3 45° STIC NVG rail. This Is clipped into the front of the rifle as per the real thing. Both parts have been painted an aluminium colour. Then sprayed over with black. Worn back around the edges, giving the illusion it's metal. As I have based this off of L115s in Afghanistan. Most rifles seen were covered in tan SCAPA tape at the time, with some individuals adding some extra colour/camo to their rifles. Similar to those seen on the earlier issued L96 at the beginining of the OP herricks in afghan. Mine is a replication of that, covered in SCAPA, and the paint scheme similar to that of a family members. Also added ranging marks as also seen on sides of the rifles at the time.6 points -

Not yet, but I'll probably be going for light kit as I run hot and at my first game I was POURING with sweat! I think if I wore a plate carrier I'd die of heatstroke! Oh yeah, I agree. Especially as I'm a total newbie I want to develop good habits. A pyro landed about 3ft away from me but as I was behind cover, I was unsure if cover counts or if its a blanket 8foot radius kill, so I shouted to a ref "Am I dead?". Before he even opened his mouth, 2 more pyros virtually landed in my lap. "Never mind, ref" 🤣5 points -

Welcome 👋 I feel really old now at 52 😆....love the dressy up side of it too, I feel like a big kid sometimes. I've noticed the AS community don't care what people wear or shoot. You could game dressed as a chicken, or full on military load out, with a electric, gas, hpa, shotgun, sniper rifle, sub machine gun, It just doesn't matter as long as you're having fun 😉5 points -

I have found that with single (not semi) fire airsoft guns, the user takes extra caution and precision when firing knowing the "limitations". : )5 points
