newish player. addiction is real

[meth da man]

Took the 15yr old to a new local site for his birthday, fast forward a year.

 

the magic ukara licence appears. and we now have four guns.

the lad has a cyma ak47 and a m14 .

I'm rocking a specna m249 and a jg sa56 fal 

 

I'm in the process of absolute going over the top with the m249.

got one of those bonkers smoke tracers. a gun cam.

just waiting on an under barrel grenade launcher abd and a laser unit to fulfil my 3rd midlife crisis.

 

most fun a 52yr old has has since discovering rave in the late 90s.

 

The eldest 27 has decided he wants to get on board so best start the wish list.

 

I honestly thought you were all joking about the money pit this hobby is.  but my god there's just so much cool shit either for a tenner or £200. 

 

Game day Sunday. can't wait to sling plastic from the beast while chucking pyro everywhere

4 Months ago i had no guns. I now have 26.. plus tracers, scopes, silencers, lights/lasers, etc..

 

It will consume an alarming amount of money.

Nice eclectic collection of guns, rather than the usual 6 x M4 variants.

I'm guessing... motorcycles and... uh... My Little Ponies?

September 30th 2022 I had 1 RIF, now I have no savings.

It's only an addiction if it causes you serious problems. What good's a hobby if you don't show passion and spend loads of money on it?

 

I couldn't agree more than you can find some really cool shit for not a silly amount of money.

I’d be divorced if I had done that in a 4 month spell

 

7 guns between us is what my wife says is more than enough. Little does she know I’m getting another rifle soon

Lol, to be fair, a gun addiction would probably be much cheaper than a wife🤣

Without a doubt.

 

As Bob Marley famously said; "Guns, tools and cars. No woman, no cry."

 

Or something like that anyway.

What?

[Mik3F]

I spent close to £7 grand on a new Mountain Bike not long ago, 

 

Need to manage my spending for a little while (a few months at least)
