Hi everyone I am new to this part of our hobby. I have mostly been shooting air rifles for the last few years but been involved with air guns since I was old enough to hold a gun. So thats a long long time. For the past few months have been seriously involved with "Iron Plate Action Shooting" using a Umarex Smith and Wesson 586. Took part in my first IPAS event on the 23rd November and it was while at that event got caught by the 6mm BB stuff from the "Practical Pistol" group who shoot IPAS aswell. I have purchased a TM Hi-Capa 5.1 for "Practical Pistol" events, and whilst researching that particular type of pistol I have "stumbled" upon "Airsoft" in general. Whilst I am not as agile as I used to be, when I was young, I am quite enthused with airsoft in general. Always been around guns so am enamoured by the RIF replica stuff available.
I was not expecting these "replica" guns to be usable as they appeared to be no more than "toy guns" however after extensive research they are more than they, initially, seemed. So, in short I am a convert, and am getting myself sucked into this new world (for me).
I "run" a small group of shooters who are equally enthused and we are in the proccess of adapting the land I have access to accomodate our new found "hobby", I am currently trying to get our land to encompass another type of shooting.
Anyway thats kinda my introduction to you all.
So Hi from a shooter with a new interest
