Enjoy mate haven't been to a proper outdoor skirmish in so long myself (about 2-3 years) :\

Have done indoor since then though but I don't like it as much

Really hope I can get new job I've applied for which means I could buy all the airsoft stuff I want yet I have to work Sundays which will mean it's even more limited when I can even do it

 

[Sitting Duck]

Blimey - what did you get sent down for ???

Married with kids ???

Serving overseas ???

Just kidding and none of my business why the the 10yr gap

welcome back and have a great game - show them youngsters how its done

(or hope you don't get owned too much if a little rusty)

 

[ak2m4]

Haha have fun. Were you born in 91? If so you started very young. Let us all know how it went when you get back.

 

[kerby91]

Hey all, well it went ok I guess...my low cap mags refuse to feed so ended up borrowing a lads 120 mid cal all day which sucked. Got a few nice kills off, like a ghillied up sniper hiding in a bush...he took out three of our team before I managed to sneak up n knife him lol. Good fun.

As for the gao, I moved abroad and then when I moved back I got engaged and now have a 9 month old lil girl haha...so a mix of reasons.

Yeah I was born in 91 mate, I started airsoft at 11, back then there was no ukara etc so didn't matter.

 

[Lozart]

Good to hear you had a good time!

 

[Ian_Gere]

So, will we see your wallet running for the hills now? I mean, do you see yourself getting back into it?

 

[kerby91]

Haha ive chucked 200 into it already, so I guess ill hide my wallet from myself lol! I'm already getting the cash together for a lovely TM 1911 MEU ?

at least ya knife worked ok then - bet that felt good stopping that mofo's gallop

stuff like that and the odd pmsl funny stuff - that is what makes for great day win or lose in my book

(yeah its good to be victorious but I mainly go for fun & enjoyment first)

 

[kerby91]

Weren't even my knife haha! Had one guy not taking hits which pissed me off, hot him at least 4 times on semi, then an auto burst, he then saw me and I took two rounds to the throat...got a bit fecked off n walked towards him on burst with the m9 raffika our medic had thrown at me when he ran off...one full mag to the face, plus being binned for 5 minutes of the next game and he was a bit sulky...arse

 

[Sitting Duck]

tut tut tut - non takers they fail to see how they can f*ck it up for all

plus I have found they can be the biggest whingers if boot on other foot

you always get 1 or 2, plus the odd genuine time when we are all pumped up and not seem to feel it straight away

but we "try" to play fair n call hits - christ its just a game with toy guns

besides no matter how good some people "think" they are....

when you see some experienced & co-ordintated teams play - yeah I still have so much to learn

when I do then I might pop down to the more serious sites - is a long way off though but I'm having fun all the same

Glad you had a good one - loads more to follow I'm sure & ukara etc.....

 

[kerby91]

Oh ill definitely be going for ukara, need to sort myself a new rifle, I like the m4 I have but its not"mine" so to speak, still feels like someone else's gun, that and it ain't powerful enough haha

 

[n1ckh]

Last game I played, had a guy hiding in a hooch, I saw his barrel and bright blue hand guard so I crept pass the door, peeked through a window, pulled my pistol and said 'bang bang' he claimed blind firing, shot me in the ribs 3 times

I held back and said let's see a Marshall, so we did and he got balled out after we gave both sides, a guy came up and as a witness said I did the right thing

The young guy got balled out again for shooting point blank because the witness also saw it

 

[kerby91]

Yeah that takes the piss, luckily it only happened once so was all good. Gonna be booking in for my next game soon, probably the 21st of Feb, gives me enough time to get my sidearm (tm 1911 meu) and sort the mag feeding issue out. As well as order a single point sling and a decent belt to attach my serpa holster to

 

[n1ckh]

It's not the 1st time its happened to me, I had someone not taking there hits but I could see them hitting as they kept squirming when hit but that's what the marshals are for

Surprising how quick the bug hits you again when you get back into it so fairplay to you buddy

 

[Ian_Gere]

Oh nooooooooooooooooooooooooooez! Someone else who wants a pistol straight away Mate, you'll get far more use out of good eyepro/alternative eyepro for different situations, spare mags, face mask, knee pads, spare mags, webbing, spare battery, spare mags, decent gloves, spare mags, elbow pads, spare mags, oh and... er... something else on the tip of my tongue... got it! Spare mags.

You get me? By all means get a pistol for the s&g (although a skinny girly-hand framed 1911 wouldn't be my choice), but just be aware that if your budget is limited, money spent on a pistol is pretty much wasted until after you have a full rig and loadout. Here is my opinion in more detail.

 

[n1ckh]

I agree with ian ^^ and dont forget spare mags

My gloves has seen more outings than my pistol, only time I draw it is for building/behicle clearence and I'm lucky if I fire 2 rounds depending on how many people are inside

 

[kerby91]

Haha I've kinda already bought the 1911, always been my favourite pistol since I was a kid so took the plunge. As for spare mags I'm ordering a load of mid caps soon as I can as well as fixing my low caps. The rest of the kit will come with time haha, I'm in no rush yet

 

[n1ckh]

Long as you've got something to carry all your mags in, doesn't matter what you wear really

Next game I go to, I'm going to wear civvi clothes, mix it up a bit

Light sweat shirt, cargo trousers, cap & boots.maybe some old jeans
