GAMBLE 436 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Hi @SouthAS! 👋 Welcome to the forum, full of advice and like minded players! 🔫🤪👍 Soon as it is safe get stuck in, have you got any gear ready to go, I started late and have only one regret.... wish I had started sooner! 🤔 Also got a simple channel giving simple tips and advice, if interested? 👍 I also have desert flecktarn trousers, just need the shirt to complete one of my many Loadouts.... got any spares!? 😂👍 💷GAMBLE💷 Link to post Share on other sites
SouthAS 7 Posted February 22 Author Share Posted February 22 @GAMBLE hey there, you must be quite famous in this forum as I’ve heard of you, user name wise. For now I just have some Targets, Protection Glasses and a Plan-B-Pistol (KWC Sig Sauer SP2020 Springer). Advice and Tips are always very welcome as I’m so noobie, that I didn’t even know how to put bbs in the Magazine and find out why I can’t pull the slide back so the hammer is ready for shooting, so that bbs fly. Yet it only dry fires. Link to post Share on other sites
GAMBLE 436 Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 Hi @SouthAS! 👋 I get around on here, but I’m not famous.... not yet! 😂 Just doing my part for the community, during these times, I’m not an expert, just a guy who enjoys he’s hobby and giving some varied content for fun, as well as keeping me sane! 🤪 Springers you have to cock manually every time and are not the best materials used to make them!? 😤 Rent first when you get the chance, browse around on here and YouTube on what RIF you want, personally recommend an AEG RIF for beginners! 🔫 In the mean time you can look at getting your Loadout ready, depending on 💶, gloves knee pads, boots additional face protection, etc. Don’t need a rig of any type when you start, but if you know what you want go for it, up to you? 🤔 compare prices, to save 💶.... Hope this helps? 🔫😎👍 💷GAMBLE💷 Link to post Share on other sites

I know, I just bought it because I didn’t know what would be quiet enough for at home. Well, I don’t like AEPs. I guess for Airsoft on Fields I’d go for GBB or CO2. But like I said I have no field or hall near me and we don’t have many teams in my area and the ones we have play in France. Link to post Share on other sites
GAMBLE 436 Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 Hi @SouthAS! 👋 Yeah! 🔫 Your choice, rent first and see what you think afterwards! 🤔 Try and find your nearest site, you don’t need to be on a team to start, you can go solo or with some friends who are keen, or persuade them? 😂👍 💷GAMBLE💷 Link to post Share on other sites

GAMBLE 436 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Hi @SouthAS! 👋 You may be a bit nervous going solo, don’t be, most of the Airsoft community 99% are nice, fun and welcoming, there for the same reason, check out and ask about their gear, 99% likely to talk about what they have and may even let you hold it, possibly test it? 🔫🤪👍 Just have fun, follow the rules, have a laugh and before you know it, you get on with regulars there on your team and the enemy team, making new friends in the community, doesn’t have to be everyone! 🔫😎👍 💷GAMBLE💷 Link to post Share on other sites
SouthAS 7 Posted February 23 Author Share Posted February 23 @GAMBLE well, the main thing is to be able to go to a field. It’s really hard without drivers license and car. Link to post Share on other sites

Have you not got any German Airsoft forums or Facebook pages, in particular any that have mention of the site in your region, if yes then it's worthwhile registering your interest with the sites & asking if there's anyone in your area, or who passed through your area on their way to games ?. You may find there are literally fellow players on your doorstep who'd be happy to give you a lift, especially if you offer to contribute to fuel. Always worth a try, nothing to lose 😁 Link to post Share on other sites

I simply asked for advice and they started to bully and mock me, when I created a thread they all commented rude on it and called me a fake and that I’d have blamed myself. 🤬 Shamal 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Airsoft123 30 Posted Tuesday at 19:22 Share Posted Tuesday at 19:22 Hello SouthAS, Why not rejoin the shameful Deutsch forum under a new account/username(will require new email but that takes 5 mins) and start a new thread? Capture all of the information you need from the good people and just ignore the messages from the minority that are unhelpful. Bullying should not be tolerated but if confronting them is not an option then create a bypass. Tackle 1 Link to post Share on other sites
