  1. My apologies you are correct the first video is in fact people from the UK. But, and this isn't a dick swinging competition, having done karate for a number of years there was never once a strike first attitude. In fact the complete opposite. Striking another person was taught as the last resort if all other avenues had failed. There is definitely a difference between attitudes towards fighting/defense in the US and the UK as well as other countries around the world. The UK has had some very high profile cases where a single punch from someone claiming a preemptive strike for self preservation as self defense has killed someone. What I was trying to articulate rightly or wrongly is that a preemptive strike isn't always the best course of action.
  2. So you've posted some videos from the US on youtube... none of which show the true ethos of the vast majority of original martial art forms, these videos have taken the offensive parts of martial arts to convince people that being the aggressor in any situation is the right way to go.
  3. This is actually so far from what is taught in the vast majority, if not all of martial arts its untrue unless of course you are referring to the likes of MMA which is more a hash up of offensive techniques taught in various martial arts. Likewise in security or personal safety the first things you are taught is de-escalation techniques or to remove yourself from the situation only. What you are describing is probably the reason for the majority of "self defense" killings in the United States.
  4. I used to Marshal, decided to sack it off. Spend enough of my time during a working week dealing with idiots and spent even more time doing it every other Sunday. Sucked the fun right out of playing and since Covid I think I've played twice in a year and a half. Do I miss it... to an extent yes, do I miss working as a marshal...absolutely not.
  5. ... and any other medicine that has had adverse side effects otherwise not presentable from study phase (but I see your point)
  6. Even though Thalidomide wasn't/isn't a vaccine...
  7. The Billet (Ambush Adventures run by Charlie James - nice little CQB site made up of joined up barracks (hence the name the billet) and was superbly run, even with Charlies safety briefs) The Depot (Ambush Adventures run by Charlie James - was just an amazing site and had plenty of space so people didn't bunch up on stairwells) The Sandpit (UCAP, was the best site down south non-MOD Stirling did a few games there with ribs for insertions across the lake)
  8. FYI - JCI comms sell pretty much the same thing, you can also get an AUX in made so you can listen to music etc.

  12. "but no one should mix in a group of greater than 6" How can you guarantee that people wont huddle in CQB hearding airsofters out of a safe zone is bad enough let alone trying to get people to push a stairwell.
  13. So a CQB site has both out door and indoor area's so the indoor bit will no longer be allowed.. technically.
  14. Anyone had to send their optic back to Vortex UK? mine is taking rather a long time to come back...

      Mate had to replace his SPITFIRE AR earlier this year, and got a Strike Eagle as replacement.  It could be down to COVID though.  I would chase them up on it.  He had no issues and had a replacement within 3 weeks.

      Yeah I've chased it, posted it after lockdown eased got a mail to say he'd received it and that they were waiting on replacements but that was two weeks ago. A courtesy mail wouldn't go a miss or am I expecting too much

  16. Dear Mods,

     

    Please get rid of the search function, its clearly not used and the space on the top of the page could be better used with just a link to google.

      Maybe the Search box should be the whole width of the page, highlighted in neon yellow with a big arrow saying "USE THIS FIRST!!!!!"

      Maybe a new reaction called 'use the search'. Every time you receive one your search box gets permanently 1px taller and wider.
