    Hi bud.
    Nice to meet you as well.
    I bet I know what gun you want to get 😂
     
    Check out 'playairsoft.co.uk' that will tell you about any sites near you.
     
    Be prepared to have your wallet hoovered clean lol.
     
    Find a site near you,make a booking as a rental player(I'm assuming you don't have any kit yet) and go along. You will need some sensible oldish clothes but make sure you are well covered. Good sturdy boots with ankle support are a must as is good quality eye protection with ballistic rating of En166,En172. No eye pro no play.
     
    As a rental you will get a gun,battery and ammo.there will probably be full face masks if you want. It would be a good idea to use them to start with. You will still need your eye pro though.
     
    Talk to people there,you will find them ready and willing to help you out with any questions.(I wouldn't though cause I'm an anti social git!)
     
    If you enjoy it and want to carry on then that's good but be prepared to spend 😂
     
    Good luck👍

    London is rather large ...  roughly which bit?  Do you have your own transport?  How far are you willing to go?
     
     
    Welcome to the site!
     
    The last thing to worry about is a social network of airsofters...  I regularly go on my tod.  Airsofters are a friendly bunch.

    Random room inspections can and do happen.  I have been in the slightly awkward position of having to run a disciplinary case against a student whose RIF was found in his wardrobe.

    I am my faculty's Prevent officer, so I have to check up on students who have been accessing websites and content on university WiFi or via university PCs that could indicate that they are at risk of radicalisation or are potentially a risk.  Recently, a Chinese Year 3 direct entry student was flagged for accessing a number of airsoft sites.  I called him in, as I am required to, and asked him in particular about an airsoft site whose website he had repeatedly accessed.  He explained that he and his friends were looking for sites to play at; I asked him if he had played at that site and he said he had.  I asked him when and, when he told me, asked him which team he had been on.  When he told me, I mentioned that we might well have shot each other.  We then spent a great hour talking about airsoft.

    The moral of that is that you should not look up airsoft related content using university PCs or WiFi, including Eduroam.

    Most airsofters are fucking deaf anyway as if they listen to the saftey brief or listen out for hits 😂
     
    But I wonder if it's worth looking up a laser tag site near you, I hear the the gear they use now has a shock/ vibration vest that are better than the crap from the old days so when you get "hit" so he can feel it,
     
    That way he can experience the same sort of thing we do and he will be a bit more safe and still run around and shoot guns with you and you can use it as a stepping stone/practice to get him to airsoft

    Or you could do what I threatened my son with, if he starts running off all Sgt Elias, or you just need to get his attention,  quick buzz on a shock collar would do the trick, they can be set just to vibrate, or if he still doesn't respond, turn up the voltage & take him down like Frank The Tank 😜

    On the subject of disability there was a player at awa (didn't get his name unfortunately) who played in the woods in a wheelchair. I saw him fall sideways off a pallet bridge once when his wheels slipped on moss. I watched him throw himself out the chair to the ground and pull the chair Infront of him as cover. I watched a complete wanker call this out as cheating, no seriously... He can't do that! He's using his wheelchair as a shield! 
     
    Great attitude and had a blast. 
     
    Everything has a work around if you speak to the site. But I'm sure there will always be that one dick that claims somehow it's an advantage.

    New 'inexpensive' DMR build. Base gun is a polymer GE 417, for weight and low price. Out of the box it was pretty horrid , but tbf for what it cost I wasn't expecting much. Gearbox is a long V2 with a mosfet and some sort of electronic full auto set up, no COL and a micro switch whitch enables full auto. I'm not realy a fan of mosfets as I see it as adding unnecisary electronic crap, ( and I'm normally running GBBR) but I'll concede that the lack of COL is handy in a semi locked pew.
    I've replaced the piston head and added a slightly longer double o ring nozzle, compression is now awesome. Switched to a ZCI rotary hop and inner barrel, along with a M/L rubber and Omega nub. Also a high torque motor. Now running at 1.78j on my home chrono on .36BBs.
    Quick blow over with Halfords paint to make it look a bit less plastic and added a few spare decals I had. 
     
    It'll get a run out next game to shake it down, but happy with that.

    So, I haven't shared this yet despite having it sat around for a few months. For context this was a boneyard A&K Masada/ACR. When I got it, the exterior of the rifle was scuffed, chipped and dented beyond belief and the previous owner had even super glued rails to the handguard. Instead of fixing the ambi fire selector properly, they had also super glued the fire selector on which I've since fixed. Since it was already destroyed externally I decided to go the absolute opposite way of what I normally go for, so I went with the brightest colours I could think of.


     

     
    Is it cursed? I think I actually prefer it to the standard look of most of my RIFs.
