If the average airsofter can tell the difference between pre modern day Russian kit and what is in use to invade Ukraine now then I'd wear that.   But because I know the average airsofter wo

So stupid -“There was a guy on site today with a russian flag patch and a thick eastern european accent.
Bold move.
Got shot a lot.”

There’s an awful lot of lame ass excuses(“oh most players won’t recognise it’s Russian” or comparing the current invasion with the Crimea/Chechnya , saying no modern military is beyond reproach for their behaviour or everyones all time favourite “we’re grown adults shooting each other with toy guns !”) being floated to legitamize using recognisable Russian kit , err it’s really bad taste at the moment simple as that ? Russia is invading another country on live tv as we speak so not a stretch to say it’s very insensitive to wear it at the moment ? 6mths-12mth time ? Probably won’t be such a problem but now ? sorry your just an insensitive cock if you do wear it .

I wear russian gear as does my friend. However we both bought it specifically to put pride patches and shit on it cause fuck Russia. I love the guns and the camo pattern but the country and its government can go fuck themselves. That said ill still be wearing more generic kit for now.

I am waiting to see how nit picky people get with the rest of her kit.

 

As Ukrainian defensive forces are clearly using bao fengs  for comms perhaps Airsoft Cardiff having been providing training… 😳

 

Maybe we should sent over a load of batteries as an aid package?

Bit of a shitty thing to do, using your country being invaded to try and up your following on Instagram 

 

Thots gonna thot.

 

War is great for propagandists and profiteers.

Given the name of the person fronting it, I'd suspect it's a Polish chap who has brought some issues over with him.

 

I really do hope that our gutter press don't pick up on that lunacy, or if they do that they at least focus on the absolutely correct "absolute melt" responses.

Yeah if airsoft forums have taught me anything over the years it's that LiPos are ticking time bombs of mass destruction and we all need to get back to nice, safe NiMh.

 

Can a ukara license fit through an m-lock slot if you fold it enough?  We'll never know.

Well in the context of a game where people are pretending to kill each other with “realistic” looking weapons….
 

I’m not sure bad taste about what you wear to do that is anything other that namby pamby nonsense.

Exactly. I see it in a similar way to folk wearing German WW2 kit. Wearing the kit is fine, wearing it while spouting racist bullshit or doing nazi salutes isn't

Up to a point, and most of us play pretend soldiers to leave real life behind for a bit.

 

Ideally we'd bring nothing to the site except BBs and a magical belief about the accuracy of our toys.

 

However, that's not always possible for all people at all times, i.e. if you have family in an active war zone.

 

I have no idea if that applies to anyone at my local sites, but I wouldn't particularly want to find out by making a point of saying "Offence is taken, not given".
