Deek

I have been airsofting / skirmishing since about 1997, being introduced to the hobby by a friend. My first airsoft weapon was a Tokyo Marui MC51 which I had imported directly from Japan (as there were very few retailers in the UK that held stock).

I took the plunge and joined the two airsoft forums of the time, Arnies Airsoft and the UK Airsoft Network (UKAN), where I went under the username of "Dangerous".

As time passed I sort of got dragged into the hobby more, ending up writing a few on-line guides and also having a few articles printed in the first printed UK airsoft magazine "Safe Zone".

Eventually I became the owner / admin of UKAN but due to personal circumstances had to pass this on and the owners of the fairly new Airsoft Community UK (ASCUK) took ownership and merged the two forums.

I eventually left the hobby in early 2005 due to many reasons, but my interest was re-ignited at the end of last year by the discovery of a local CQB site.

Despite the time that has passed I still seem to be causing controversy though...
