Welcome As a starting point this link will list some sites in Kent http://www.airsoft-forums.co.uk/index.php/topic/30516-kent-sites/?hl=kent Recommend trying the forum search function to see if any more information on the sites, the term "Kent" will call up many threads so may take a bit of time to work through them. However, you can Google the site names and hopefully get more details. I am not aware of a specific county list of all airsoft sites, although it would be a good project to put one together. This sticky link will also help http://www.airsoft-forums.co.uk/index.php/topic/3581-new-and-looking-for-somewhere-to-play/ I read a recent article in Airsoft Action (Feb 2016) about a new CQB site in Ashford - After Dark C.Q.B. run by Darkwater Airsoft http://www.darkwaterairsoft.co.uk/

Welcome The fourm does has a wealth of useful knowledge, check out the sticky posts and do not be afraid to use the search function. There is always someone with advice, opinion or just random off topic chat.

UK Tactical - kit Nightgear - kit Military 1st - kit Combat South - guns (TM & ICS) Fire Support - guns and parts

Yes, tan is guns look naff . Would rather have a bright yellow or an orange one anyday.

You could have let this run a little longer before the spoiler.

Why not have an airsoft license, similar to a driving one. All held on a national database, and the license can be revoked. Must be over 18 to hold one, and no purchase of RIF allowed without it. Players will have to sit a theory test on VCRA, UKARA, safe handling, correct terminology, battery storage, etc. And a practical exam to demonstate proper use of eye-pro, magazine and battery changes, safety procedure before entering the Safe Zone, etc. Their Airsoft license can be checked at sites to make sure the player is legal to carry a RIF. And a provisional license for under 18s, to make sure they are responsible enough to be allowed to use a two-tone gun. Could also introduce gun registration numbers. Every gun has a unique index number, held on a national database, and when you sell a gun you complete the details of old owner and new owner and send them off to the Airsoft Licensing Agency (could be located in Swansea for example). This would also mean stolen or lost guns could be traced back to the owner. Note: Yes, it is April 1st. And this is not a serious post.

Good review. Only thing extra I would like to see is it actually being worn on the leg and with a demonstration of getting mags in and out of the pouches.

To clarify, and from personal experience, in relation to singing (a cadence) when doing a squaded run or tabbing just meant we had to run/move quicker because we had spare energy if we could sing. However, agree that on ops people singing while travelling or off duty as it is a good boost to personal/team morale. One of the greatest war film moments, Zulu

Simple answer - Yes. As a hobby it has a wide range of players, from 30 year olds needing extra-marital adventure, snot nosed kids, students, old and bold (or maybe bald) chaps, military, ex-military, walts, chairborne warriors, etc. Airsoft could be considered as care in the community. There are also plenty of tech-heads in the game. Even going to a site solo you soon get talking to other players; I have not met anyone yet who does not like talking about guns and gear. Overall it is fun, whether skirmishing or trying milsim. Play fair, take your hits regardless what of the other team does, and get stuck in. You may get lit up like a Christmas tree and have plenty of welts for the wife to laugh at, and ache like crazy for the next day or two but you will take away memories of epic moments and classic fails. I began airsoft after a visit to my brother, where my nephew was packing his kit for a weekend away with mates. I had a look at the guns whilst he explained what airsoft was. In an instant I knew that I wanted to take up the hobby. Then began the process of researching and reading all about airsoft, and joining a forum. Just wish that I had known about it years ago and gone to my first game sooner.

If you can sing then you are not working hard enough. Do the British sing? No, that is why we had an empire

As long as you can fit a LiPo battery in it with Deans connectors they rock

There are some one day milsim games held on a Saturday. I was at Longmoor last weekend with 3 other forum members from our AF-UK private night at The Mall. The next one by Airborne Airsoft as part of their Total War series should be at Bramley near Basingstoke in early May. You can drive there or I can collect you from the railway station.

Assume your previous thread did not answer the question of best goggles fot FAST helmet http://www.airsoft-forums.co.uk/index.php/topic/30411-best-googles-for-fast-helmets/?hl=fast A quick search for some links that may help http://www.airsoft-forums.co.uk/index.php/topic/29882-helmetgogglesmask/?hl=fast http://www.airsoft-forums.co.uk/index.php/topic/28853-revision-bullet-ant-goggles/?hl=fast#entry225784 http://www.airsoft-forums.co.uk/index.php/topic/28710-fogging-please-help/page-3?hl=fast http://www.airsoft-forums.co.uk/index.php/topic/28536-face-mask-alternative/?hl=fast#entry217426 http://www.airsoft-forums.co.uk/index.php/topic/28399-the-infamous-goggle-fogging/?hl=fast#entry216295

The Mall is an excellent indoor CQB site and recommended. UCAP Sandpit at Dartford is a large outdoor site that provides a good mixed of terrain and buildings.

Welcome . You meet fellow airsofters by going to airsoft sites and playing. Do not worry about turning up alone, most of us start out that way, and you will soon get talking to other players. We are a fairly friendly bunch and do like taliking about guns, kit, (some especially about technical stuff) and our experiences. Through this forum I have met up with several airsofters and played at different sites. So you could say that this forum is a place for lonely airsofters to meet. You do not need to be part of a team. Best bit of advice - just choose a site, rent some kit, and go play. See how you like it; I wish that I had gone sooner as it is good fun. In the meantime read the sticky posts which contain lots of very useful information, use the search function, and ask questions.

The imax B6 charger is very good, buy a genuine one. I have one myself and have not experienced any issues with it. I like the fact that it balances the battery cells and also discharges the battery for storage. The audible alarm when battery is charged is loud enough to get your attention.

Yes it in an old quarry site to the east, off the Roman Road. It is being slowly redeveloped but hopefully still had a few years of playing available. Worth a visit.

I do not know whether such a list exists but it would be useful to have one for all counties. Have you looked at this map of sites? A good starting point: http://www.airsoftmap.co.uk/ I can recommend the UCAP Sandpit, Dartford (next to the Bluewater shopping centre) which is a massive site. http://ucap.co.uk/ucap-airsoft-venues/ucap-sandpit-venue/

Have you been there, and if so would be worth a review [Edit: I do not do facebook so cannot see details from the link] Although I did note from the website that Swindon Airsoft, Badlands allows: Participant minimum age is 10 years old to play, accompanied by parent, guardian or nominated adult.

There is a new site in Abingdon, Oxfordshire, so not too far away from you. I have not played there myself yet or seen any reviews of the site but is an option. http://www.airsoft-forums.co.uk/index.php/topic/30024-new-site-in-wiltshire-abingdon/?hl=abingdon

Have you tried The Mall? Worth considering going to Reading, only just south of Oxfordshire.

H&K is Heckler & Koch, the German company behind the real G36. The brand is the maker of the airsoft gun, i.e. G&G, Tokyo Marui, SRC, Umarex, Well, etc, which could be stamped/painted on the body.

Website shows it is offering paintball, laser tag, arrow tag and archery.

No it was writing figuratively. I always thought that for thousands of years soldiers have been wearing helmets for protection and as part of their uniform. Now if we want to talk about tit like headwear that would be people in cars wearing babseball hats, the sign of a low IQ driver
