It was fun fun fun! But to be honest, it was a little easy. You see, I went with my brother to see all his geeky friends and half of the them were a little round and clumbsy. I really went with him to see whats so great about airsoft.
I had fun. The adrenline was there, and hey, you shoot people. It was a good thing that I was on the side with the guy who had the electric P-90 :| Yikes.
But one thing about airsoft thats a bitch is the reloading. Little bb's are everywhere and you have to load 50 one by one into a hold thats the size of a head on a nail. I've been killed two out of 4 times that dealed with ammo and reloading. :fork:
So in my freetime I'll find a way to get a speedier system. Also, when I get my next batch of birthday money, I might get myself an airsoft gun. woot

Did you have a loading rod?

Nope. The gun I was working with did not have rods in mind. Thats what I'm trying to design.

When you purchase an AEG (the electric kind) They supply a loading rod to help you load magazines quickly. Its a cylinder where you put the BBs in and then, insert the nozzle of the cylinder into the magazine and push the BBs out with another rod.
You'll find it much easier.

those are very good to use for loading, especially for low cappers like myself.

Oh, you had a little springer battle did you?

Just as a note, springers are really weak.

Most of them were. Except for that P-90.

Well, it's simply because it's not a springer. ;)

A springer war is what you play when you're like 10 or in the house =)

The big boys play with AEGs and Gas. And if you want a challenge, look around for neighboring teams with police and military personnel, gets to be a bit more challenging.

I use an electric loader. Got one for about 20 bucks and I can load 3 mags inside of 20 seconds

You know, when you lowcappers are busy reloading ill come up and hose you and still have ammo left over thanks to my highcap. How do you do it, i tried all standards for 1 event, and after that it was like, "Wow, huge mistake" and now i use 6 highcaps and am loving it.

Hard to be covert when your gun sounds like a ****ing maraca.

Unfoutunetly in my weekend events, little to no emphasis is based on any kind of stealth, its all just run and gun stuff, so you ned the ammo for that

Well in that case, youre playing paintball with airsoft weapons.

I play with low-cap because of realism, an mp5 with 200 rounds magazines is just stupid, it's a paradox to airsoft imho.

If you were at any of the fields I play at and you tried going in with 6 hicaps 5 of them would get pulled out of your vest.

Ehhhh its not that bad, we do utilize teamwork and such, and it is in the woods as opposed to a speedball field. If you wanted to be really conservative you could get by with standards, but we usually have about 40-50 people a game, so thats alot of targets, and given airsoft weapons arent the most accurate things i do beleive you have a big grace area since you cant usually hit a target with 1 shot like a real weapon.

Thats what I was going to say.

Hicaps are like hoppers in paintball.

Well I play with Hicaps because it is more economical. I cant afford twelve lowcaps/midcaps so I just buy three Hicaps instead.
