I would say the standard % (60-70%) plus the same for the shells (maybe a little less if they need a service)

They did retail at £200 - PM SENT I'm interested

That being said... the minority certainly ruin it for the majority. For instance I saw recently about a person who had a confirmed case and still decided to go out to a gathering resulting in numerous infections. Now while I'd like to think people who play Airsoft are pretty solid individuals and would use their noggins if they had a confirmed case other instances of behaviors doesn't fill me with much hope that they would either.

Bares no odds to me, Airsoft isnt my only hobby so losing that leaves me to concentrate on other things for the time being. It would be a very sad world if Airsoft is all anyone cared about? what else do you do for fun Mr. Borg?

Some interesting replies! Like I say I played yesterday and having done so I'm still not 100% on if I want to be regularly going just yet but that's just me having other people to worry about much more than myself.

So I got out this weekend for the first time since I think January. While playing I noted some good practices and some not so good which led me thinking about how much I really think playing Airsoft at the moment is or isn't a good idea.... Have you played recently? What did you make of the sites safety implementations (this isn't intended as slamming thread so please don't name sites)? How comfortable would you be challenging a sites procedures? Do you understand the current procedures?

You waited a year...?

Speaking as someone that works on a site, I would want to know straight off the bat if you have a pacemaker fitted as IF the worst did happen and you didn't have a buddy with you that knows you have one and an ambulance does need to be called for whatever reason then its information that can be passed to the attending crew. You don't have to disclose that to anyone but the site owner/marshals. We had someone on site who chose not to disclose medical issues and it was lucky a friend knew all of them as when the crews arrived to help when she had an episode they could treat the player as required had they not had the information the potential for things to go awry turned out to be fairly high.

Thanks, have an internet cookie

Cant say much for the brand you're asking about but what I will say about TM as you mentioned it is that they are like a new car, you don't NEED to do anything until things start to fail people just do a lot to them because you can improve on the platform. VFC are much the same whoever there are things personally that I would change straight away but only because I don't think much of their hop.

Element Ranger Plates TM NGRS Stang Mag Sent my vortex off for warranty exchange as well if that counts.

Not just airsoft but also real world.... "Influencers" Especially the ones that literally have the knowledge base of a wet blanket or those that promote bad play/advocate dangerous play styles.

You spelt HAO wrong

Try the search function... loads of threads on first milsims or beginner milsims.

Don't worry folks, they are hiring 10,000 new staff to cope with online shopping... don't expect that shopping to ever turn up though or if it does it'll look like Diana's limo.

IWA and the British shooting show are two I know of but neither are airsoft specific although do have a small (very small) airsoft footprint. IWA is based in Germany (iirc) and has had the likes of TAG and PTS etc.

From what I gathered from it there was a long standing issue with the guy that got banned just being a loud mouth and persistently annoying the owner (Andy) and staff. When the banning came about the player then tried to make it that Andy didn't like speedsofters or their choice of kit (which in the video Andy makes abundantly clear that isn't the issue). I think there have been a few instances of the player spouting off on the internet and Andy had just finally had enough. To my understanding any site can refuse entry for whatever reason they like, doesn't mean people have to like it or understand it. Goes back to mustang being banned from sites he hasn't played or has only played once, the way you present yourself especially in a public forum (facebook, youtube and the like) can have adverse effects and people need to start realizing that.

Judging by Andy from UCAPS video just now here's another cardinal sin... Don't piss off site owners and run your mouth on the internet.

You spelt scrounger wrong

The logic of having money for a game day and gear but not general hygiene astounds me.

Not wearing deodorant

Fun fact: bodgeups tried to get free stuff from a mate of mine at GZ for a shoutout on his youtube channel.

Still 3/5m radius would be sufficient, marshal in the building when people are getting close to police it and it's as easy as that
