How Long Have You Airsofted?

[Mike636]

Hello All,

Just wanted to know how long you have spent playing the sport and how it has changed since you started and what you'd like to see next.

 

[evilfree]

Just started!

Will have my defence in October so I can purchase my own RIF's!

Loving it that much that ive already bought everything already except a gun!

 

[Mike636]

Happy Days, thats the best way to go, any plans on what you want?

 

[evilfree]

Im looking at getting the CYMA 039U tactical AK, and as a backup a DE M56C. Already have shells and mags for them!

 

[Mike636]

Sounds good, Let us know at AirsoftOperator.com if you do a review on it!

 

[evilfree]

Ive not seen any CYMA 039U reviews anywhere in English so might do a review for you to use!

bought my AEG (and only gun for a veeeeery long time) in 2002 while at uni, took a very long break until 2 years ago when I got right back into things.

i have been airsofting since i was 10 so a while

 

[sp00n]

bit off a tough one to answer, i voted less than a year as i have skirmished less than a year, yet i have had bb guns from 97'ish when me and my brother used to have garden wars

I made my account on here almost immediately after my first ever game.

 

[Unrustle_Thine_Jimmies]

Roughly 3 years now,started as a party guest,got hooked,got an ex rental,some Primark combats and off I went. Not much changes I have noticed. Attitude to airsoft is still border negative and not improving much,at least in my area in Ireland.

I think getting on 6 yrs now , my father got me a HFC M190, and a family friend gave me their warrior L96 before the VCRA came in, rather funnily they are both dead beyond repair.

16 and a bit years; started back in 1997.

Bought my fist spinger in 1996. But started properly January last year! so under 2 years.

 

[TacMaster]

Was buying LPEGs and springers for garden wars with my mates back in 2009-10, I bought my MP5 in 2011 and started skirmishing in 2012. Been properly hooked since

 

[AK47frizzle]

If shooting in my garden counts, 6 years. My garden is full of bbs everywhere.

Also sometimes I bring my springers with me to my friend's house and we shoot stuff. An ak47 would be awkward and loud to hide.

Been playing properly for just over 5 years, played the sporadic game or two for a couple of years before but not sure I would consider myself an airsofter back then

 

[Dan's Ark]

I made my account the day after my first skirmish, so I've been playing just over a year now. Feels like I've been playing much longer though, since I've learned so much.

 

[Ian_Gere]

19 months for me, but yeah Dan, it feels longer to me too.

I've noticed the trend in loadouts change: back when i started i seem to remember the own gunners wearing/carrying more gear, but now the fashion is low drag. Oh aye, and there's been the rise to domination of the MTP/MC Empire...
