Hey guys, I don't know why I am posting this, and to be honest, I'm going to regret it, but I would like some advice, or just anyone whos experienced this. Basically, at home to cut a long story short, my mum and dad split up ( they are both lovely people and very friendly, they just took different paths ) but, my mum then met another guy, who is also nice, but this man isn't like a permanent thing, he just sees mum every now and then. This is good, because he makes my mum very happy. And he doesn't live with me, he's not like a step dad or any of that malarkey. Then a problem has a occurred, as this guy comes round, just to be at the house, to talk to mum etc my depression kicks in, and one of the modes of depression I suffer is where I lock myself away, this can be seen as to gain attention, but it's just because I'm a mess at that point in time. Other things happen, like mum tries to take me along to things, and sometimes I say no. Now, the problem, my mum gets upset, and because I'm a considerate person, I'm only happy when all of my family are happy. This therefore makes me upset mum gets upset because of me being awkward, and she feels like she's stepping on egg shells. If anyone has advice, or has had experience please tell me. I'm up for talking about it (If anyone took the time to read this, I'm very grateful for that, and hope you all have a great day, for taking the time to read my post)

I'll check some of those out, I like Nov and bodge though!

Good point, I enjoy sniping, as the intensity of walking slowly through thick and dense forest to then hear a snap of a twig - signalling there's an enemy nearby, oh, that must be so exciting. I know sniping is slow, but I can imagine being somewhere, scanning the area, then see some movement far ahead. Then, you arise your sniper, pull the bolt back, 'klink' , a bb has been flung towards the enemy. It misses, and he now knows your position, and you get pelted with 30 BBs.

Eh, was randomly looking through a dictionary, came across the word, and, well, it boggled my mind..

Oh, LOL! Never knew that was an airsoft shop... Thanks for that, probably will stick with the one I was previously looking at, as it's cheaper, and I'm only 14, so I don't have much money. Thanks for that site though, wasn't really wanting one, but I'll certainly have a look into it. Thanks very much

JEEZ! I have to wait 4 weeks or so till I can get my hands on the beast (TM vsr) lol. Anyone had experience in having to wait to get a gun you'd really like? How do you cope? Lol, patience is not an attribute I have.

What youtubers do you like to watch? Airsoft or not, who are your favourite youtubers? Have a good day. (I generally watch youtube, as I suffer from bipolar disorder, so yeah :/)

If you can find the website of your local sites, look on their website, and they often have a "game days" page, which will tell you what events come up. I know my local sight has a milsim every month or so, and they are normally over two days. So check the website if the site. Goodluck

I'm based in suffolk, and I travel up to thetford for my games, when I play. Welcome to the mystic land of the forums.

Ok then. I like the idea if the cardboard. Thanks for the review.

Been looking myself, if you measure your waist size, searching for some plate carriers will be so much easier. Since your 5'10" I'm pretty sure that's more or less irrelevant, I may be wrong, but when looking at plate carriers they give you a rough size guide, and it's all about waist size. Of you're from the UK, go to the website called "Military1st.co.uk" they do free delivery and sell great army clothing & equipment. Here's one that may be good for you, http://www.military1st.co.uk/201042-003-condor-sentry-lightweight-plate-carrier-tan.html. Goodluck! Let me know if you find any!

Toy guns, yes. But, can inflict pain, not as toy as those action men

Guys, I understand most of you are grown up, and have a different sense of humour to my sort of age. This is not aggressive, it's a fact. Most 14 year olds may joke about, well I don't know, but, something stupid to do with sex. But say people of the age of 20+ may have a slightly more sarcastic way of portraying their humour. This is completely cool, luckily, I was brought up by a family who are generally quite jokey, so I can take some joking about. Airsoft isn't really my age group thing, so I don't really fit in here, but, I do my best to get along. Have a good day guys

Just found something out, my waste size is 27 inches. I'll look into a JPC ad they seem to be nice and tight

Ew, 200 quid. Lozart did recommend me a plate carrier earlier, it has straps, and seems quite small: http://www.military1st.co.uk/201042-003-condor-sentry-lightweight-plate-carrier-tan.html

We are on our journey to getting it, we're going to play a game in two weeks or so, bring the ukara form and get it stamped. Then play like the week after, then have to wait 2 months, I think that's how it works... The "3 games in no less than 2 months" confuses me.

where from? Which website.

That link - I'll hav a look at my waist size tommorow, it says 30-46" that's probably father right fit.. Plus UK seller, thanks for the help!

Found this, http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Viper-Special-Ops-Jump-Plate-Carrier-Platform-/181902850045?var=&hash=item2a5a4137fd:m:m_Mj1ZdEucmnhr_EL9L3plA has those hypalon shoulder straps, supposed to give a tighter fit, a good price compared to some other models. Seems good

I was just looking at some JPC's myself. One problem, I'm only buying plate carriers, if they come with action men. thanks!

LOL. Thanks for that, I will be carrying my toy action man around the field, he'll go in my right pocket.

Hey I've been looking at some plate carriers but not really sure what ones to get. I think most of them are too big for a 5.2ft kid. If anyone knows a decent tight plate carrier for a 14 year old kid, that'd be great. Thanks

I tried xD

It's all about the joules. After an extensive thread of people explaining to me (prof,sac) I am here to deliver the good stuff to you. Joules joules joules. Typically, an airsoft skirmish arena has an FPS limit infact, they all do in the uk and other countries too. In most airsoft skirmish arenas the FPS limit is around 350 with 0.2g bbs, depending on which site you go to this may vary. Now, it's not so much an FPS limit, they just say that to stop people getting confused, it's more a joules limit, energy = joules. (There is a joules equation if you want to find out about it google it) if a 0.2g bb travels at 350 FPS and it hits a human, 1.14 joules will be transferred into that human. So therefore, the limit of that site is 1.14 joules. SOME people (I used to think this too) think that their gun is too powerful, and shoots at 450 FPS with 0.2g bbs. Now they're worried that their gun will be rejected when they take the chrono. So they think they'll just chuck in 0.3g bbs to lower their FPS to 350 and they'll be okay? WRONG. If you fired a 0.3g bb at 350 FPS, it will transfer 1.71 joules, and that is cheating, meaning they have a hot gun. If you put this into an extreme, a 10 Ton truck hitting you at 350 FPS would be okay? I think not... So a site with a limit of 350 FPS is really a limit of 1.14 joules (all the site's limits are with 0.2g bbs) here's a picture to help you understand. Just thought I'd say something of use... (FOR AUTOMATIC FIRING GUNS)

China have ak's? Thought they only had Katanas...
