Forums > Community Center > Interests > Sports

Does anyone go air softing? Kinda like paintballing but with BB guns. I just started like 2 weeks ago so I'ma a lito newb and don't really know much >< But I'm pretty good I guess. I have a Tatical L96 rifle and a 5.1 silver dragon and I'm currently saving up for one of those rubber masks and materials for my ghillie suit. So does anyone play?

I've done it, but I'm not like a huge fan or anything

Oh dear, sounds dangerous. ph34r.gif I'd be too scared to do something like that. Does it hurt when you get hit?
EddieV
^ It doesn't hurt Jane, the outfit you're going to be wearing will just let you feel the impact, the worse that can happen is a lil sting like you just got hit with a rubber band. Or in some cases if you don't decide to wear a suit it feels terrible.

I play, I have an ICS MP5SD6 with a UTG CQB 1x32 Red Dot scope mounted on. My side arm is an HFC Colt 1911. I also have a cheap UHC Super 9 Sniper Rifle that I use to play around with in my backyard.

By the end of this year however I'm planning on getting a CA AUG A2, and as my sidearm, possible a Beretta M9, or a TM MK23.

an Airsoft game.

oh i used to have 3 aegs and a gazillion gas guns but once you hit 17 you trade all your guns for drugs.
magicfann
no but paintballing is mad fun
i go with some friends at least a few times a year
EddieV
eh I'm not really into paintballing as much as Airsoft. Airsoft seems much more realistic to everyday combat. Plus I prefer using guns closely related to real firearms.

Eh, no, but I really want to go paintballing sometime. I have a friend who competes in that stuff and makes a lot of money.

One time my brother shot me in the knee with a BB gun, does that count?
EddieV
^ lol they use plastic bullets instead of metal...but I guess you kinda get it? with more pain involved?

Like Eddie said, it's usually not all that bad. Though, one time I, uh, accidentally shot my friend in the back with a shotgun at pretty close range and it left a nice, sizable purple welt on his back...

I use to go airsofting all the time with kids in the neighborhood, and with guys who have huge forests as their backyards. I haven't really gone in a long time though.
EddieV
We should have a CB airsoft game LOL!

I've never done it. Paintball either. But it seems super fun. I'm just really bad at handling guns I guess. I got pwned bad in laser tag.
EddieV
^ If you have extra money just buy like a cheap bb gun or airsoft gun and do target practice in your backyard, it really helps.

It's fun until you realize that they're cheap toys that are easily broken and it's much more fun to shoot real guns.
EddieV
I can't wait till I buy a real Remington 700.
kryogenix
Bring it to a gunsmith to retool it as close to an M24 as he can.
EddieV
^ That's what I'm planning to do, though, getting my hands to the standard scope they use on the M24's might be a bit hard.

Isn't that like a shotgun? BB shotguns kinda suck don't they?
EddieV
No a Remington 700 is a tactical rifle.


BB shotguns are actually getting better, though the prices are a bit high now too.

I used to Airsoft until my friend got hit in the eye.

Now I only paintball.

I should introduce you to my boyfriend, Sulphur-in-K - he's a die-hard airsofter haha!

Are you part of any forums or anything?
EddieV
I'm starting to be a die hard airsofter too.

Yeah, I belong to Airsoft Pacific, New Jersey Airsoft Command, and New Jersey Airsoft.
