https://www.airsoft-hub.com/item/27717-gbb-hicapa-pistol Relisted with prices from £90-£100 with the condition being "Only some minor scratches" but doesn't disclose that the gun is missing the fibre optic rods on its front and rear sights. Peace of mind, brand new for £95 https://www.highpressureairsoft.co.uk/raven-hi-capa-51# https://www.eliteairsoft.uk/products/raven-hi-capa-5-1-black

That's what I can't get my head around. I'm not saying it doesn't exist but I haven't seen quantitative analysis of how spending 3. 4 or even 5 times the value of the base gun on parts gives a significant gain in performance. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ https://www.airsoft-hub.com/item/30554-gas-1911 I hope that in paying more than 1.5 times retail value of a JBBG special, the seller throws in some magic beans or whatever illegal substance he was on. https://www.justbbguns.co.uk/hg121-airsoft-gas-pistol/

I play 1 to 3 times a month. Teams are nice to have and play with together but they're not essential. Depending on the games you play, teamwork is required if completing objectives is your thing such as securing areas, retrieving items, recovering VIPs, etc. For the most part, teamwork with strangers can work out really well in my experience.
-
That is definitely part of the appeal of the G36 platform to me, especially the G36C. That aesthetic gave it a certain distinction in my eyes.

Anyone can sue on any grounds but the question is whether there's a case. The fact that the site you play at has games specially for ND players and that there is a precedent of such players playing among NT players on normal game days would be a compelling argument that the banned player was banned because of their actions, not their condition.
-
Welcome!

As said, if the player's behaviour was aggressive or dangerous, that is more than adequate grounds to them being banned. Being ND/disabled would be completely incidental so no discrimination is at play. Any self-respecting site will say safety comes first and if anyone, be they ND, NT, disabled or "able-bodied", behaves in a manner deemed dangerous or otherwise against the site's rules, that's on them to deal with the consequences. On a somewhat related note, someone posted a negative review of a site saying its staff were unwelcoming and that his experience fell short of expectations. It was vaguely written without specific examples of what he didn't like. It transpired that he wrote it out of spite because he was asked to leave for ignoring multiple safety warnings. I think he was Romanian but I very much doubt that it even crossed the minds of the staff who asked him to leave.

As others said, rental is very much recommended to start until you get a UKARA number. You might be tempted to buy from the start but without a UKARA number or other defence to buy a realistic looking airsoft gun, your options will be limited to a two-tone gun and that will very likely resell for much less than a RIF. If you try airsoft and decide it's not for you - the chances are that you'd sink less money on rentals than you would lose trying to resell a two-tone gun. Depending on the site, a lot of players only use a rifle and don't use a sidearm (pistol or SMG) unless it's required e.g. snipers and dedicated marksmen are often recommended to have a sidearm to take on opponents within the minimum engagement distance for sniper rifles/DMRs. I'd recommend buy decent boots with good ankle support. They won't necessarily prevent you from suffering foot/ankle/lower leg injury but they can lessen the injury if it happens. Good eye protection is also non-negotiable for obvious reasons. That's not to say you need to spend silly money on it from the start as there are plenty of low-cost options suitable for airsoft from the likes of Bolle for example. Lots of sites have their own or a retailer partner shop so you can have a feel of the guns there and find if there's a particular platform you can see yourself investing in heavily. That's not to say you can't peruse around at a bricks and mortar airsoft retailer! As for locations in/around London, you can check the website below for options. https://playairsoft.uk/locations/greater-london As Rogerborg said, don't worry about going on your tod. You'll find no shortage of people to talk to in most games. Plenty of regulars are in the same boat.

Yeah. I deliberately didn't mention the price because it wasn't unreasonable. It was just the guff about saying it does but doesn't work properly and the autofellatio he was performing over the paintjob that read like he was dreaming as Stevie Wonder could probably paint it better using his feet.
-
https://www.airsoft-hub.com/item/30179-we-hi-capa-7-inch-co2 "Gun works very good just needs a new nozzle" That's quite the contradiction there along with his self-congratulatory remark about the paintjob he did that looks like it's flaking away more than Goldmember.

The death spiral of trust in society is a symptom of the death of acting in good faith. Not everybody is a bad actor but when you see more people acting in bad faith and they are treated leniently when caught, it's not a surprise that some become less trusting. I'm not saying it's right or wrong for marshals to wear body cams though I can understand why they would to deter aggro from players in disputes over not calling their hits for example.
