Khyber

Just joined the site and the sport. First off... it is great to have a proper forum for a change. As someone who ditched FB for good a few months back and of an age who remembers when forums were the place to go for information and connections, it is so good to see a very active forum again. I remember all the old forums I used to visit for various hobbies that died out with the rise of FB and groups. I hated the lack of diversity FB groups offered in terms of sub forums and individual threads etc...
 
Anyway I digress, had a nosey around and the forum looks great and well categorised with an absolute wealth of activity and information. Cant wait to get stuck in more and learn more about the sport and contribute where I can. Have a great day!

Thanks guys, @GAMBLE just subbed your youtube, I will check it out when I got some free time. Already watched countless videos and found some tubers I like and many who I don't... no names mentioned. Cant wait to delve into the off site side of things with my own gear and see what makes these things tick. I'm a tinkerer for sure. 

Hey all, My name is Steven. Live just outside of Whitby, North Yorkshire (any members nearby?).
Played my first game of airsoft last weekend at District 23 Billingham. Man was it fun, the most fun I have had in countless years. My only regret... waiting until I was 33 to try it out. 
 
That being said I can't wait to go and play again. Made a few purchases already to make the next game a little more comfortable as the rental face pro was awful. So purchased some Bolle goggles, a lower face mesh mask and got some armored gloves from the site on the night.
 
I already have my heart set on a certain rifle but I know my best bet is to just go out and play for now with rental. My closest site is District 23 with Dirty dog not too much further and in the other direction have SAC101.
 
Sure looks like a very informative and friendly community on here and look forward to getting stuck into the sport some more. 
 
I'm a tech geek at heart too so am excited to also learn as much as I can about what goes on inside the RIFs as much as the outside. 
 
Thanks fur 'avin' me (as we would say up 'ere)
