Airsoft is like a military simulation game, kinda like paintball but more realistic. Here's a link to a video from the field I play at, http://http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=TR6sWHyRkdU (a bit a language) there's better videos but this is there new layout. It's pretty fun, people have varying load outs and everyone is pretty chill as long as your not a jerk. It's more of a group thing instead of a sport like paintball. Overall it's pretty fun and a good time for pretty
Cheap. Oh yeah,
I forgot to mention, the guns shoot little plastic pellets, my field has a limit I 350 feet per second for the guns.

Oh that sounds cool.  How does it feel when hit in comparison to paintballs?  I've been paintballing once, and it was fun, but those suckers do smart a little :P  I suppose if you do it enough, you get used to it, or get good enough that you avoid getting shot :D  My main issue with it though was that my goggles kept fogging up and it was really difficult to see well >:(

IMO it hurts a little more, faster projectile, but less mass. The guns shoot around 350 feet per second so you can do the math :p I use wax or shaving cream (weird but effective) to keep my mask from fogging up. I should take a picture with all my gear soon, when I do I'll post it

If I was allowed/able to go shooting things, I'd probably spend less time here too! :D

Good to have you back :cheers:

I use a Topeak Mini 9 bike tool for my paintball kit.  :D



Bike tools are a good way to get all the allen wrenches you may need, but then, so are those fold out wrench things that are sold everywhere for very little money...
