    gas rifle

    For my first gun I am going down the gas route, I came over from paintball so know how fickle the gas guys are. After playing with a rental aegis, I can't face the noise. Good points you have made for not using a gas gun as first gun though.

    Best goggles for not fogging

    Coming from paintball scene, most goggles mist or fog up. Look for ones with a thermal lens they tend to fog up less quickly than other lens. I have used a motorcycle visor demisting solution on most of the goggles i have used, with the exception of gloop all seem to work ok. I have used JT...

    Tippman M4 - A Field Review

    I have read that there is what could be called in the paintball fraternity tournament locks for the guns, maybe these could become more the norm in airsoft. Another solution could be for the site marshalls to test the guns when people are in the safe zone, i know this is both time consuming for...

    Camo Conundrum

    For me it has to be tiger stripe, i liked it when i saw it back on the paintball tournament field in the 90's. Either that or go black, bit boring but it can be effective. if you are daring have a look at rhodesian, bit different but i know it used to work quite well

    What Camo gear is everyone wearing

    I did rememebr one guy who went paintballing in a white coveralls, his explanation was they can see you when they start so why hide. I do like on the odd occassion to be a sneaky sod, so I like a bit of camouflage or black flight suit.

    What Camo gear is everyone wearing

    I know when I last played what I would call a woodland tournament (paintball) tigerstripe and Rhodesian stripe were all the rage as they worked quite well and looked quite good. Does everyone go for the more traditional british army DPM, or is there something better out there to wear.

    advice on my first gun

    I do like them. I was offered an M4 CQB at a great price, only issue is most of the sites near where i live are all outdoor sites. so looknig at them gives me another idea.

    advice on my first gun

    I agree with the noise of a GBB firing, that is what has drawn me to it as well as the recoil. I am not a spray and pray type of person, i miss the pump days of paintballing. It was quality of the shooter not the amount shot that always won.

    advice on my first gun

    any downsides to a GBB, looking to run it on HPA to avoid the dreaded gun freeze. Also i still have a few hpa tanks from my paintball set up. on the mask front, I have seen some mesh masks. Does anyone recommend these? I currently have an old scott paintball mask but think it needs replacing.

    advice on my first gun

    As for the regular site to play on, no idea yet. This all depends on what is close to me, most of the dual purpose sites are woodland one. Dual purpose as in paintball and airsoft. I know it does matter what weight bb are used in a gun, they all come out the same velocity.

    I am just used to regardless, no shooting under a certain distance, thanks for that one.

    advice on my first gun

    Thanks for the advice. I only like the sniper rifle, as I cant seem to find a nice looking SLR replica. is the MED the same for pistols, or again is this across the board.

    advice on my first gun

    Hello there, I have been reading a few posts and I have learned few things. I have been paintballing for the past 20 years now, at most levels ranging from tournament player back when pumps were used to a walk on's more recently. I have looked at a few online videos and this has brought up...
