Yeah, I think having AI previously using the same venue - I'd like to think they would iron out or attempt to address some of the bad points. Might be worth it...

Having never previously bothered about the AI500, I thought I might try it this time round... Anyone care to share their previous experiences and why they thought it was so bad?

I think I saw Southcoast CQB down near Bournemouth put one on last year.

I'm also into my watches and I can't not wear one, even for airsoft, just feels weird - so I just wear a very old Timex Expedition that I don't mind it getting beaten up further. I'd like to wear my Victorinox INOX, as that's literally bomb proof and more than fit for purpose, but don't want to fuck that up, weird isn't it haha. So maybe another G-Shock, or the good ol' F91W if you're into your digitals. Or, a G10 military watch, if you want the military aesthetic with some genuine military background - MWC will do you a solid example for about £70 Oh and stick it on a NATO!

Appreciate the effort to type that, nice review. It's on my list of new sites to visit, sooner rather than later as I suspect it won't be around for many years.

I've attended a few pistol drill/CQB "courses" when FCS were about at in Lewisham, many years ago now. If anything, it was a laugh!

Don't forget the Maglite!

Done it a few times, and you've usually got to be in one of two camps... 1) Sneaky, low and slow approach. 2) Pistol and a fuck-tonne of pyro, running and screaming and dying painfully. Rinse and repeat hah.

Just checking in to follow this thread, I'd like to know also!

Reminds me of a day at Urban Assault (RIP that site!) There was one building where most of our team were pouring through the windows and getting shot to shit. I just used to front door and casually strolled in.

Welcome back from another freshly returning player!

I'm quite the opposite right now, having returned to airsoft after a good number of years I feel refreshed and ready to shoot shit! However, I can completely acknowledge what it feels like to burn out on airsoft. I simply had other interests that I wanted to sink money into. For me it was cars, motorsport and trackdays. I think it's one of the few things that rivals airsoft in cost! 😅 As others have said - maybe it's time to refresh and minimise your kit back to basics. Or, like what I did, sell off the majority and keep the basics - knowing you'll be back at some point in time.

Yeah. Maybe in hindsight, TWA wasn't the best site to return to hah

That is the massive downside to mesh, I think i'm just used to it - that or I don't mind putting up with it in a trade off for fogging up!

Welcome! Mixed results from some people using stuff, but Rain-X antifog used to work for me. If it can demist a leaky classic Mini Cooper, then googles were never a problem. Ultimately solved that by going for mesh.

....I mean, if you're going for some kind of futuristic paratrooper, where your rifle is secured to you for the jump, then yeah, sure haha.

Thank you for the warm welcome! @EDcase - That might be an interesting thread after my first few games back, i'll look into it! @Shamal - Still got a lot of my gear, didn't get rid of lot as I probably knew I'd be back in the fold at some point or another hah, most of my gas mags needed taking down and attacking with silicone grease though. @Impulse - Been doing my research and it definitely sounds like that's the case - there's a 1J rule in Ireland right? They seem to get on just fine! In regards to the bolties, I was probably one of the very few who would use one regularly. Now yeah, i'm expecting a sea of them all strapped with scopecams 😆

Thank you! Bring on the madness........ ...... and the backaches 😅

I like a P90, but not that arsed about it. But I've no doubt it'll make him money.

Cheers! 😁 Oh i'll certainly have a gander - I just remember when I started, the only (or at least the most popular) airsoft youtuber was Scoutthedoggie!

Greetings all! Returning player here from over 12 years ago. Used to frequent the ZeroIn forums under the username Intervention - I've already recognised one or two usernames from there. Apparently, I had an account here also, but must have forgotten about it. So much has changed in the world of airsoft, it's mad. From the return of HPA (They were all but phased out when I first started) to the rise of youtuber wannabes haha Experienced bolty "bush wookie" player, but will dabble in different gameplay styles when I'm bored.. So, cheers and see you in my crosshairs! 🍻

Trust me, my 3rd post and it's already car related.. '02 Impreza WRX Bugeye, relatively standard as I've only owner her for coming up to 7 months, I had an '03 Blobeye before this one.. And up to date with a recent Zunsport grill install -
