"Pretty sure all Airsoft Mortars DIY 😂🤔

10 seconds on Google shows this is bollocks

 

This Ollie bloke sounds like a bit of a twat to be honest. Does he have anything to do with running the site or is he just a regular player?

Sorry I mean his long post about me shouting at kids and being a serial bad reviewer and getting others to do so to feed my ego? 

I wonder if someone pointed out UK law on defamation and libel?

Possibly. Or he re-read it back to himself and realised it was a load of rubbish he had written, and just not true??

🤣

IF this did happen then why didn't the marshals step in? Stopping incidents like this is part of their job and if they witnessed it but did nothing then it's on them.

 

As for the mortar, that's just a lawsuit waiting to happen. I just hope the owners see sense before it comes to that.

If it did happen, why didn't the children's parent(s) intervene?  I would have if someone had been screaming at my kids when they were young.

Equally possible!

Nothing that I have seen in this thread has caused me to question the review; neither has it, or anything that I have seen on FB, encouraged me to visit 501st Airsoft.

What do you mean you don't want to get an improvised mortar round to the head?

I would rather not, to be honest.

Given how diabolical the TLSFX one can be (Had a flying mortar'ed flashbang hit me in the head at one site in England), I definitely wouldn't be wanting to be downrange of a homebrew one.

 

Word of mouth is still fairly prevalent, and all the locals dogpiling (which by the way, is now a criminal offence under the Online Safety Bill 2023) on a negative review just confirms that the site is best avoided.

Anyone else slowly falling victim to the reverse phycology here, and now also becoming desperate to visit this site?!

Not me. Like @Colin Allen the more I read the more I'm avoiding the mess of a site

I'm torn, it's not far from me which is a definite plus, but I detest badly run sites, but now I wanna see how bad, if it is I'll rip the shit out of it & it's sycophantic fanbois 🤣

If you think that I'm driving four or so hours, and even dragging the Mrs along, to play airsoft with a bunch of fellow fanatics then you're sadly unmistaken... 😅

 

Seriously, we did similar with a Farcebook group for mature players a few years back.  We all wore DPM and '58 pattern, and used 'interesting' gnus.  Not knowing the site we didn't do too well, but many laughs were had and I ate the biggest breakfast of my life so far in a B&B before the game.  Had an interesting discussion on arthritis meds at lunchtime too.  Memorable day.   Even got to sample Milton Keynes roundabouts on the way home too.

Sorry guys, no matter how much I'd like to meet some of you here. I just don't want to give that site any more of my money.
