The 'How Did Your Airsoft Day Go? Thread

But to be that guy in power tho 😇 I get your point, I'll probably just give it a go sometime and then make up my mind 🤷🏼 -
The 'How Did Your Airsoft Day Go? Thread

I second that it was a great day. Vukodlak didn't have the greatest start, but we definitely took back initiative after "lunch". Was my first time being squadleader in a while, which meant I was in contact with both HQ/command and my squad. And neither would ever shut up, many times I had to ask for radio silence on the squad channel and a message repeat on the HQ channel 😂 And I didn't get fragged at all during the day, so I think my squadleading went well, although my squad was a bit annoyed at sometimes being given more quiet orders. "HQ, this is Charlie lead, we've been holding this position for 20 minutes with no sign of the enemy, requesting new orders" "Copy that Charlie lead, hold position for now!" "Understood, Charlie holding position" [grumble grumble] Still had great fun tho, I might try to find more milsim events in my area to join. As much as I like the more 'arcade' skirm days, milsim are good fun as well. -

My loadout from Sundays game, that @Skullcheweralready posted about in "how did your airsoft day go?". It's subtle, but you might be able to make out my favourite outfit colour. Not shown: 2 radios on my back as I was squadleader. Also not shown: me getting a headache from having to decypher what two different channels are trying to tell me at the same time. 😂 -
I have. I also found a short clip at one point showing it with a folding stock, if I remember correctly it could also be removed, making it ultra short. Just gonna have to wait till September-ish, which was the rough date I heard for release.

There was bullying going on, for real? Wish you had pointed them out so I could hunt them down. Was a good day for players as well, although my team lost all games, quite badly. Even tho I tried real hard to actually get my team to attack and advance. One of those days I guess 🤷♂️. Still had fun tho. Quite like these days where there are so many players. It gets a bit hectic at times but for me that adds to the fun 😅 -
God I am so hyped for this! I just hope it's gonna be as good as they say it is...

Thanks for the reply, I'll try contacting them.

I did, sorry if I didn't make this clear in the post (will update). Tried holding the trigger many times, at many lengths. nothing happened.

When the factory G&G ETU in my RIF (G&G Armament TR16 MBR 556WH) burned out I replaced it with a "Perun MOSFET ETU++" which worked well for a bit, but recently I've been having some troubles with it. I love how many different settings there are for it, but a short while ago I tried to change the settings again, and for some reason ended up with semi = semi and auto = semi/binary/triple/full auto, where every time I'd pull the trigger, it would have a different effect. I tried to reset it today and nothing happened, I got to the 'master reset' option but nothing appeared to happen when I pulled the trigger (2 seconds, as per the manual), no indication beep either. Eventually I somehow managed to get it to be binary on both the 'semi' as 'auto' selections, but I was unable to turn the binary off again. Does anyone know what I could try next? Or should I just give up and buy a new ETU? It still shoots whenever I pull the trigger, so no issues there, I just can't change the ETU settings anymore. Thanks in advance.

Load-Out / Loadout Picture topic

Decided to try and make my airsoft loadout in Ghost Recon Wildlands. I'd just started a new playthrough as well so had to do a bit of work to get the correct rifle (or as close as anyway) Bonus safety briefing pic (hence the wearing of glasses and not goggles) Quite like this one but I've been told I look like an American patriot/proud boy. Also, my last game before finally upgrading to a plate carrier. Photo's of that soon (hopefully). -

Decided to check the forum again, encounter you. Was good to play with you at the Battlesim Lite. Still a shame that sneak around to their spawn didn't work. -
Every time I'm at Red Alert I go in and have a browse (or two). Good selection of 2nd hand stuff (RIF's, outfits, webbing, etc.). Bought a scope last time I was there. Helpful staff who also sometimes marshall along at Red Alert itself.

Ammo clip for my H8R discs (holds 4 discs) came in over the weekend, now to wait till kydex customs sends me the holster and I finally can better take my H8R with me on skirms (already really love this revolver) -

I was mainly thinking about the weight of it 😅 As for looks: go for it! Seeing as a lot of people walk around with dummy rounds anyway... -

This made me realize one thing, I could wear my bullet belt to a skirm... not that it's a good idea at all, but I just like them, need to get my tacti-cool look on point. I stopped wearing it to shows because obviously, so it has sat gathering dust for a few years already now. -

Usually I'll have a few photo's after a game of which one or two are really good, but for this set of photo's I'm happy with all the ones I'm in. -
My mate told me he dipped his balls in glitter. Pretty nuts, right?

Mentioned that to the owner last time I was there. He said he likes his site to be a bit more 'family friendly' and less pushy and doesn't like rushing to much (paraphrasing, but that's the gist of it). Basically, if the marshalls say "10 minutes" (or any other time frame), double it -

Let me know when you're going, I'll join. -
I'd like to make it known that I also yell stuff luke that, but not from the back (and there are several forum members who are witness to that), not every shouty person leads from the rear, mostly because my aim is crap and I can't hit anyone otherwise

Been to some fields where friendly fire doesn't count, or where friendly fire means the person shooting has to go respawn. And a site where friendly fire means both people involved have to respawn so the one person can apologize to the other, so it all depends on which site you go to, but it'll always be explained during the game day briefing (or just ask a marshal if you're unsure). I've never played at a field where ricochets count, but it's always mentioned that if you're unsure if it was a direct hit or ricochet, just take it. Spawn camping is annoying and generally frowned upon in my opinion, but most sites I play at have spawns thus far away from each other it's difficult to get to the enemy spawn (except one site I played at that had a massive field with 5 spawnpoints where it occasionally happened, but usually telling the attacker that he's at a spawn is enough for them to try his luck somewhere else.

Plate carrier recommendations
Smiling-Dutchman replied to ConfusedDad's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts
Boy did I read that wrong... OT: from talking with friends, Viper has some good stuff with the buckle up system for exchanging pouches/setups on the go! That's the brand I'll be going for anyway, when money starts becoming a thing again. -

Agreed, was fun! I really enjoyed the attack/defend bit with the ferret! (my throat is a bit sore from shouting...) And the using the cards you find for more time to go into the fort and doing the shooting course in there for the actual points was really good, makes it a bit more fun (and 'light', which I guess was the idea) And thanks for making me a member of the team, And apologies for making the team worse (it will happen, it is inevitable)
