Teo Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 Hi. I started Airsoft when I was 9 and have been hooked ever since. I am now 13. Over the years I have acquired a lot of kit. I get mixed remarks about me having kit that sometimes looks better than the middle aged guys who have been playing for 10+'years. As you can see in the pic. What do you guys think. Please no hate
AK47frizzle Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 i've been playing airsoft for.... 7-8 years now? I can't remember anymore and i'm hitting 16 in 4 days (LEGAL SEX). I haven't acquired much kit as i've only skirmished twice, but i'd done a few backyard shootouts. I also learn ninjutsu, so it helps with tactics and stealth. Generally, I think full tactical gear suits adults more because they have the developed and muscular body to look mean and lean in gear. Apparently people in my school think i'm scary when I wear a suit or blazer.....
Moose87 Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 all i can say about that pic is why are your goggles on the back of your head and your rifle is about to shoot you in the crutch. gear is gear. i wear a set of 95s i got in 2000.

The googles are on the back because it was photo shoot. Not a skirmish. The gun is hanging from a tactical universal clip, that's just the way they hang

I get mixed remarks about me having kit that sometimes looks better than the middle aged guys who have been playing for 10+'years. As you can see in the pic, I am kinda a gear whore. What do you guys think. Not to piss on your chips there buddy but all I can see here is knock off kit? Think your a long way off a gear whore im afraid. Edit: I see you have edited your post

GiantKiwi Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 Not to piss on your chips there buddy but all I can see here is knock off kit? This. Buy cheap, buy twice. Hence, my airsoft expenditure is astronomical. Like the real SureFire M600 Ultra I bought last month..

Supporters Ian_Gere Posted February 9, 2014 Supporters Posted February 9, 2014 Get 'em down t'pit! That's what I say... Too big to clean chimneys at that age. Down t'pit. That'll teach 'em the meanin' o' work!
lethaldave Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 lmfao ian that comment made me chuckle, reminds me of when my grandad goes on about the 40s lol
Teo Posted February 9, 2014 Author Posted February 9, 2014 But.. Bank of Mum and Dad? No actually. I buy all my own kit. My mum got really pissed once when she found my wallet empty. She still doesn't know I bought a lot of Airsoft stuff.
GiantKiwi Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 No actually. I buy all my own kit. My mum got really pissed once when she found my wallet empty.

Mind you, If i'd started airsoft around the age you did, I wouldn't still be alive as my parents would've blown their stacks at the money involved
Kaza66 Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 :angry:Quote button isn't working! Anyways- Frizzle - "I've been playing airsoft for.... 7-8 years now" Yet you've only been skirmishing twice... Wut? You can't play airsoft on your own you know...
Airsoft_Mr B Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 I'm 16 and pretty much nobody else at my school knows about airsoft and I don't go skirmishing anywhere near as much as I'd like to either I'm lucky enough that my dad enjoys airsoft too and he bought ours RIFs. To be honest though I don't like the look of my loadout at the moment. I don't have a job yet so I can't go buying gear and things.

Unrustle_Thine_Jimmies Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 Yeh,Jcheese is a Crye© Or Die kind of guy! He doesn't use that cheap surplus tat,that's for poor people and Communists!

Pit, PIT ! you don't get rained on down t'pit. Eeer luxury. When I were a lad it were a hole in t'bog and we had to use our hands ...
TacMaster Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 I've been airsofting for 3 years now. Spent under £600 total on guns and gear. A lot of my stuff is knock off except my tactical tailor rig and my issue balaclava. I play in DPM trousers I've had since 2009. My friends consider me an overspender. Don't know how you could be a gear whore with what looks like Kombat multicam pouches.
Baz JJ Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 Whats your point ? People play Airsoft for different reasons. I choose to spend my budget on Airsoft weaponry and furniture for them because that is where my interest is. I could spend lots of money on turning myself into a carbon copy of a special forces operative or a WW2 Japanese infantryman. Can't see the point, but others might. If you say "how do I look ?" most men will feel compelled to say nothing flattering. Men communicate by piss taking. Now women ! different story.. Hi. I started Airsoft when I was 9 and have been hooked ever since. I am now 13. Over the years I have acquired a lot of kit. I get mixed remarks about me having kit that sometimes looks better than the middle aged guys who have been playing for 10+'years. As you can see in the pic. What do you guys think. Please no hate
Skaut Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 +1 to Moose87 googles on back and gear is gear I m from Russia, my frend from Moscow for example have own armored car BTR 80, tow years ago we have couple combat helicopters for game,it question of money. In Russia you can't take part in game if not 18 years old.
remus Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 No actually. I buy all my own kit. My mum got really pissed once when she found my wallet empty. She still doesn't know I bought a lot of Airsoft stuff. have to ask, and where did said money come from? cause if at that age i could have found a job that paid well enough to airsoft and wasnt during the times i would have been at it or something similar(tbh probably more martial art classes) id have been on it and parents couldnt have said anything....
Mike636 Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 So just to be clear , we are jumping up and down on a young lad who has bought his own kit and is proud of that, when I was that age I had a paper round and a milkround, I also worked with my dad doing labouring which was pretty good money for a young lad. Kudos to the OP for buying his own stuff !
Black Death Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 Looks ok mate. Nothing special but nothing ridiculous or stupid either Nice one
