Smiling-Dutchman

Went airsofting by myself today and I got recognized and had friendly chats with people I played with last times. Obviously this won't happen the first time you go, but if you just chat to people some of them will remember you. We're a friendly bunch

I'm going to my first game since lockdown, haven't found any battlebrothers in the UK yet (downside of moving to a difderent country) but I'm beyond caring. I'm gonna go there by myself with an open mind and make friends, even if it'll be just for that day. As long as you kinda know what you're doing (point your rifle at the enemy and don't forget to pull the trigger every now and then) you'll be fine. If you lived any closer to me I'd go with you in a heartbeat, a bit too much travel tho.

Thinking of getting this one: https://www.defconairsoft.co.uk/product/gg-tr16-mbr-556wh-full-metal-with-g2-etu/ so that would be nun-chuck style battery then? My mates tell me to go for titan batteries, does that make a big difference than any other ones?

As I have my 3rd game coming up on sunday: How long does applying for a UKARA number take? (How long untill I can finally start buying my own RIF) How do you know what battery size/type to use for your replica? (I've seen "nunchuck" type, but also a battery that is basically a long and a short stick, or only just the one stick. I found a replica I'm thinking of buying, but nothing on the website does it say what battery to use)

I do want to, at some point, get a JG star Dragon, if only the shell, and make High RoF rifle from it that's actually decent, just to mess with people. Had those rifles at a place I worked at, they might have some old broken ones I can take over for free.

yeah, probably more suited for urban environments.

saw this passing by on FB, for sure an interesting concept, no idea how well it would work during an actual skirm tho (probably not that well tbh)

That's the case for me tbh. but I'm okay with being proven wrong on this, especially if I can get my hands on one as cool looking as the one Davegolf posted

First time I see aG36 that issn't a rental, who knew these could be cool looking replica's?

storytime?

good to see I will not be the only one attending that day then, even if COVID scares everyone else away, we can do 1V1 skirms Having played there last just before lockdown, site looks good, but all the buildings seem a bit post-apoc (still sturdy enough tho), and their CQB zone consists mostly of fallen over walls. So far I really like the site, the "main area" has a good ditch and a big, steep, hill at the end which makes for a great defend/attack scenario

I've started with casual paintball before moving on to airsoft, so every now and then I notice myself shaking my rifle if there were no bb's coming out (in paintball this means you loossen any paintballs that are stuck in the hopper, but in airsoft, playing with hi-caps, it just means you're playing the maracas.)

My alpenflage hat cam in yesterday. I have an alpenflage shirt and backpack (original, so will attach to the jacket) coming in hopefully soon. Alpenflage trousers and jacket came in 2 weeks ago. I'm ready foor the fall! Might need to look into an SG 550 RIF to complete the look.

Just saw this movie on Netflix (out since July 10th) and quite liked it. Without giving too much away, apart from some unconventional plot elements (if you've seen it you know what I mean) the gunplay in the fighting scenes is quite fun to watch. 8/10, would recommend.

I do find it a bit of a dick-move (while we're talking about netherregions anyway) to laugh and not say anything, least you could do is say sorry

Damn, and I thought I was original with the carrier case I'm designing/planning
