  1. My other suggestions (based on the picture, so if you have it already done these things, you can ignore me ?) would be to get a few more mags for the AEG or get a high cap one that you can quickly refill in a game, I normally go through my two mid caps and resort to using my high cap (as you can normally just tip your bbs in them quickly). It can be a bit of a ballache to reload your midcaps in the middle of a game with the type of speedloader you are showing. I highly recommend footware with ankle support so you dont break a bone when you foot goes down a ditch or rabbit hole. ? You might find that mask fogs up too, so try and pre-treat it prior to the game with some cat crap (yes, a real thing haha) or some anti-fog solution/wipes, you'll find plenty of opinions on glasses, goggles, masks and anti-fog solutions on here. Ultimately though, as @EDcase says, if you are having fun, you are doing it right, so welcome to the world of airsoft, hope you enjoy it!
  2. Unfortunately been quiet busy with the new house etc, plus winter is just depressing! Nearly over the finishing line, so plan on getting over to Ace on 24th April!
  3. Depending on where you are you are based in "Staffs", another site for you to try out could be Ace Airsoft . I normally go with a few mates and usually see another forum member ( @strykerles ) there. 100% agree with this, I was a bit unsure when starting and did wonder how "clique(y)" people were at Airsoft, but the people I've met are very welcoming and you find yourself upholding this attitude when you see new guys joining. Don't forget, we are adults running around the woods with toy guns ?
  4. I used them too (but for glasses not goggles), would rate them 100% I did do a loose review on them a while ago if you are interested @JoeH
  5. Currently isolating as I've tested positive for the dreaded covid and decided to go through some of my cam footage of the very first time I played airsoft and it picked up a very glorious war cry....

  6. Welcome to the forum buddy. Couldn't agree more with this, get yourself along and you'll be pissed you didnt do it sooner!
  7. Welcome to the forum buddy.

      thats actually a decent ripoff of an Evo. down to the handstop and everything lol

      I’d have one of them before I’d have an Evo ! ?

  9. Welcome to the forum buddy.
  10. Is that your subtle way of asking for nudes? ???
  11. Hiya dude, welcome to the forum and glad you are enjoying the hobby. You'll more than likely find the answer you need somewhere on here or if not, just ask, the guys are friendly enough as long as you don't mention certain airsofters from youtube
  12. Welcome to the forum and the hobby dude. I thought starting at the age of 33 (nearly 2 years ago) was "old" but soon found out I'm one of the younger models ?
  13. Welcome to the forum, I bet your bank account is already swearing at you again!
  14. Welcome to the forum dude.
  15. Welcome to the forum dude. No doubt you'll get friendly with the regulars, the more you go. Have fun!
  16. Boooooo, apparently though, there are "early signs that the crisis at pumps is ending" and hopefully all the idiots have gone by the weekend, so keep your ear to the ground!
  17. I'm in the same boat, enjoying Alyx and Elite Dangerous (when I get time to play them, the joys of having young kids!) but been bouncing between phasmaphobia and pavlov when gaming with mates. I've got Onward on the wishlist too, but waiting for a decent price cut before I get it.
  18. @Ace Airsoft War Games booked again for the 3rd Oct ?

     

    Looks like I've rallied another 5 people to go too ?

      the usual bunch or more noobs to shoot? :D

       

      see you there btw ?

      Usual bunch with one nomad and one noob! 

  19. Yep Can't stress this enough, your ankles will thank you later after you put your ankle down a ditch ?
  20. Should get onto them! They should replace those controllers if you are having issues.
  21. If you don't mind using a facebook account then I would recommend the Quest 2 is best for price (as a quest 2 user myself). Can be used standalone without a computer or you can just connect it to your PC witha USB cable (one long enough haha) and play your VR games from your steam library etc
  22. Great stuff, hopefully you'll have a good game and get into it!
  23. Welcome to the forum @Buck3131 Looks like you doing it the right way, rental first instead of "all the gear and no idea" I wouldnt worry about meeting up with anyone from here, I've found most people at games are approchable and some even let you have a feel and take a few plinks with their guns. (insert fast show "ooooohhhhhhh, suit you sir" here) While you are waiting for your first game, give @GAMBLE's channel a view, specially aimed towards to new players: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCL-V_yVApaCpm096XBAQE1A/videos

    Sure you can mention me, buddy. I'm 6ft 2, average build floating towards the dad bod, and I don't know if it's cuz I've hit mid 30s but I've noticed I've started to sweat more than a glassblowers arse while doing exercise! I've kept off the sugar loaded fizzy drinks, hence why the coke zero I took the following month did naff all! Would recommend the raspberry lucozade sport over the orange tho ??
