Stupid player experience

First time i went to under arm throw my Ohshiboom, it should have only been a short throw, 6ft or so ..... insted i completely totally and utterly failed. for some reason i still cannont explane, i just couldnt let it go and ended up throwing it straight up .... ohh the shame

 
Not airsoft related but real steel instead. On exercise with a new 2nd Lt and he decided to name two of our checkpoints as 'charlie' and 'charlie charlie'. Needless to say there was a lot of confusion and in the end a lot of swearing haha

He also got our section lost and then turned to me and said "so Corporal, how did WE end up in this mess?" . Royal WE is that Sir?

 
Very 1st game I played, lit & threw a pyro BUT my arm caught my rifle and headed towards 3 team players

'Mooooove' I shouted, they stood there wondering what's going on and the BANG, after we'd picked ourselves up from laughing our tits off, the Marshall was crying and said 'I'll let that go' never done it since :)

On an exercise on Salisbury plain, about 6 in the morning, me and my mate having a piss when about 20 paras are running & firing at us, turned out they got lost, thought we were the enemy and attacked us :) we were in our crackers firing back :)

So much for communication lol

 
I remember this one guy (would have been about 16, I reckon). He came up to me in the safe-zone and started asking me questions about my "G36C". I quickly explained to him that it was a UMP, but it is quite an easy mistake to make as they look vaguely similar to one another. Guy then asks me if he can have a hold of my "MP5". I assume that he meant my MP5K, so I get it out of my nearby gun bag and hand it to him. His response to me was- I shit you not- "I was asking if I could look at your MP5, not your Scorpion. You know, the one in your hand?"

Are you f***ing kidding me?

I hand it over to him and, again, inform him that is a UMP and not an MP5. He then comes out with "are you sure? I've used a UMP in Call of Duty, and it doesn't look anything like a UMP. Looks a lot more like the MP5". I confirm with him that it most definitely is a UMP and not an MP5. I talked to him for a few more minutes until the next game was called. Dude then walks away and thanks me for letting him get a feel of a "MPL"

I lost a lot of faith in humanity that day.

I had never even heard of the MPL myself

The MPL is made by Walther. It's still pretty niche though!

All of the guns Falcon had with him were extremely different though- and how can you mix an MP5K up with a Scorpion? They're completely different!

I just had a look over at IMFDB on the grounds that maybe it's the models used in game that were screwing the kid up but no - seems he is ultimate derp.

 
The gun models in a lot of FPS games nowadays are extremely detailed, you can definitely see the difference between them!

Anyway, my regular site is criscrossed by ditches filled with brackish, muddy water. They're a bit of a health hazard, so the safety briefing always reminds players tht the only way you're allowed to get across them is by using bridges.

So we're midway through the day, and I'm merrily picking off targets with my DMR when all of a sudden I hear splashing coming from the ditch behind me- some idiot had crawled through the ditch system (risking his health) just to come and 'kill' me with his rubber knife!

I'm still holding out for an MPL AEG! Love those things so much.

That said, Echo1 USA have a gun coming out soon that looks kind of like it, without the stock. Would make quite a nice build project

looks like a tech 9

 
Not really a stupid player, nor an actual battle, but whatever.

I was playing a backyard battle back when my B500 from JBBG (don't lynch me) was my best AEG. I was using my stock uhc W700 on the ground, and we were shooting at the group on the roof (long story). I see something odd, what I believe is a hand. So I aim, and fire, and hit it. Turns put the kid was trying to take an "airsoft selfie" and stuck his hand up with his camera to take the pic, and I shot him. The pic was rather funny, as it was taken as he got hit. Rather mild in comparison to some of the stories on here, but it was still funny.

That seems to be a Tec 9. Not sure about the external battery mounting though, why not just make it GBB?

 
I didn't notice the battery connector at first... gawd, that's 'orrible!
