Newbie with no cluebie!

[GhostGreebs]

Hi all,

Apologies for the terrible attempt at rhyming in the title but if it's pulled you in then great!

I've never played airsoft but I am looking into starting! I've read the newbie guides and I'm not ready to buy my own gear just yet and would rather try it out a few times first as suggested.

I'm looking forward to spending a bit of time perusing through the posts on the forums and will probably be a bit of a lurker for a little while.

Welcome to the forums. Best thing to do would be to find a site near you and try it out a few times to see if it's your thing. Don't be afraid to ask questions either here or at the site to play at.

It's game day for a lot of people so the forums will be a bit quiet for awhile.

 

[Mcckieran]

Yeah, as he said the best thing to do is to try out some guns and play a few times. If you ever want more advice email me at [email protected] I'll try and guide you a bit more and can even work out the best gun for you to buy

Howdy there fellow newbie!

Where abouts are you based? Where is your nearest site?

 

[GhostGreebs]

Thanks a bunch guys, the more advice the better as I don't want to jump into anything majorly just yet, just dipping the feet.

I'm in Wrexham and believe my nearest is in fact Wrexham First & Only The Armoury!

Hey, welcome to the forums. What everyone else said: Rent a gun and have a go - usually you're looking at £40-50 if you include the entry fee, gun rental, kit rental and a bit of extra ammo.

Edit

If it helps at all, looks like at The Armoury rental is £15 + £25 entry. http://www.firstandonlyevents.co.uk/hire-equipment/ - you'll want to buy a bottle of BBs though so that's probably £5-8 extra.

Hey Ghost.

Yep, title certainly worked for me

Where abouts do you live? I'm quite new to the sport too and have my own equipment. If you're close, could be cool for two newbies to play together

EDIT: D'oh! Just seen you live in Wrexham! Little bit far from me tbh

 

[GhostGreebs]

Haha! Yep I'm in Wrexham. I'm looking at going to the next open day at my local site to see what the crack is
