Stormhall Posted July 14, 2013 Author Posted July 14, 2013 I don't remember the other things but yeah a t-shirt isn't cosplay.
Coldy Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 Wear what you want. Don't care about what other people think. As for the person who posted that some sites won't like it... Dream on kid, since when do airsoft sites worry about what their customers wear. Coldy

If they do that I can't see them wanting people playing whilst dressing as a power ranger.Dream on kid.

Dream on kid, since when do airsoft sites worry about what their customers wear. Coldy Quite a few sites actually... its not that they will ban you its that it will be frowned upon and they may even ask you try to dress more "appropriately" in the future. While I know this isn't the majority there are a few with a more milsim inclination that may very well take this stance. Its the same with two-tone guns. Many sites ask that you tape up your guns not to ruin the experience for other players. and also what Marcus said.. (damn ninja post) If I were you I'd save the costume for a Halloween or Christmas game
Longshot Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 I'll also vouch for the concept of knowing that some sites aren't too happy about you not milsimming it up. I think that's the very reason why Team Bacon go there in Hawaiian shirts though...

I think that's the very reason why Team Bacon go there in Hawaiian shirts though... Long shot sounds like they need to see Shiteshirts http://www.shiteshirts.com/? £35 for a shirt of their design, all you get to choose is the size. I've thought about one for an urban/cqb loadout. As for the original subject, go for it if it makes you feel better, I've seen plenty of people in outfits outside of the normal Camo but they tend to be at dedicated games, eg, 50 santas for a Christmas special. Hawaiian shirts for a Columbian druglords vs USSF. Or where's wally, the stag on his stag do. But perhaps its for somewhere you know well and would take it positively. Two of my regular sites wouldn't give two hoots about it, you'd get the piss ripped out of you in one though. The third company would prob have a bout of humour failure as they have a blanket ban on any 2 tone or ex 2 tone guns.
remus Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 they have banned ex 2 toned guns?how does that work?whilst i can understand for certain apecial days etc as a general rule i dislike that tbh. course i am working still on my umberella corp loadout so couldnt give 2 hoots, and i know of others with similar loads etc.
Supporters M_P Posted July 15, 2013 Supporters Posted July 15, 2013 Because the law isnt hugely clear, assuming im thinking of the same chain of sites, they dont want anything that's even close to a grey area taking part at their venues (such as manufacturing an rif)- which is fair enough I guess.
remus Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 yea but how hard is it to tell that a gun is ex 2 toned at times? would be interested to see them enforcing that well(im guessing they go by looking at the guns, what looks dogy(scratched to bright colours/taped over etc) and work from there but still, some times you cant tell the difference...
Chippins Posted July 18, 2013 Posted July 18, 2013 Ive always wanted to go airsofting dressed like this I'd just run around all day with a sword and one of them flintlock pistols shouting "Yew Bluddy fooool man" at every given opportunity

Chippins Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 Get someone you know to make one or do it yourself, the plans and genuine materials are available online and a shako will probably set you back about 40 squids
Supporters Ian_Gere Posted July 19, 2013 Supporters Posted July 19, 2013 genuine materials are available online I'll tell yer what yer need, lad. Parafin oil and best brown paper.
