Probe Posted February 25, 2021 Posted February 25, 2021 Back to Airsoft after 10+ years & looking to run as hard as I can before i'm too old. I'm in Liverpool/Wirral area & looking forward to knocking the dust off the muscle memory in game rather than lockdown plinking, so recommendations for decent sites and game days would be gratefully received. Look forward to seeing you on the field..... especially in my sight picture.
Cannonfodder Posted February 25, 2021 Posted February 25, 2021 Welcome. As midlife crisises go airsoft is probably one of the better options. It's less likely to kill you than a super bike or sports car and less likely to upset the other half than a mistress
EDcase Posted February 25, 2021 Posted February 25, 2021 Welcome back Probe. I think you'll find that the newer weaponry generally works better than the old pewpews and for less money. Don't worry, I'm on my second mid-life crisis ?
38super Posted February 25, 2021 Posted February 25, 2021 Welcome. I'd like to say I'm on a mid life crisis too but I'd have lie about my age.
Shamal Posted February 25, 2021 Posted February 25, 2021 Hi @Probe Welcome to the funny farm. Come in sit down and take the weight off ? Yep thats my take on it. Run with a gun while its still fun! ? Regards
Guest Mr. No_Face Posted February 25, 2021 Posted February 25, 2021 Ha, I'm about to turn 30 very soon and have no plans on hanging up the gear for a long time. Welcome to the forum comrade.

I don't feel like a spring chicken anymore and the body isn't as fluid as it used to be.? But I guess that happens when you got a rug rat running around too.?
GAMBLE Posted February 25, 2021 Posted February 25, 2021 Hi @Probe! ? welcome to the forum, full of advice and like minded player! ??? Good luck when the sights reopen soon! ?? ?GAMBLE?

AlphaBear Posted February 25, 2021 Posted February 25, 2021 Until you've bought a 911 (and not the pistol), a F430, and then possibly a green Lambo and then a Sunseeker... you ain't even had a midlife crisis. Oh plus the Tiffany rings to go with the supermodel girlfriend.... ?

Lol, remember thinking people 30+ were ancient & it seemed such a long way away, now I can't remember being 30 & I recently became a grandfather, times moving too fast all of a sudden?

Cannonfodder Posted February 26, 2021 Posted February 26, 2021 At least with grandkids you can give them back. Also don't forget to let the grandchild get away with stuff that would've gotten the parents a massive bollocking at that age 16 hours ago, SLACK_JAW said: lol well I certainly feel old.

I've certainly got guitar picks older ! And come to think of it I've still got the MG I bought at 17 , which is way more than 30 years ago !
CrackCommandoUnit1972 Posted March 16, 2021 Posted March 16, 2021 SWAT Airsoft are starting to run games at their woodland site at Parkgate from April. I have had some great days there.
