Airsoft on the beach

[Jambo88]

Why is there not a site on a beach?

It would be great

 

[SeniorSpaz87]

Hmm, not sure if it would... Sand would get in all the AEG internals, and water too. Add in limited cover and getting bogged down in wet sand would tire players out before they really ever got to enjoy it, and if you hit the deck there's a fair chance your gun would fail in a spectacular way as well...

 

[Jambo88]

You don't need to play in the water. The limited cover and slow game play would encourage team play.

May be wrong but most of the UK shoreline is Crown estate (I know this as I had to get a metal detecting permit) so getting permission and insurance probs would be pretty hard

also the wind would be an issue too

Bravo 22 in Formby is in a pinewood on a sand dune.

and limited cover doesn't encourage teamplay it encourages people standing round flinging BBs at each other from 100m away screaming 'take your hits'.

Yes but it character building

I built enough character running on beaches in the RN.... don't need to do it in my recreational time as well!
