Hello from the south coast ​?​

I'm usually in a variation of this,


So look out for the gear whore in tiger stripe - got it....? (just playing with you)

I usually wear as little kit as I can get away with these days.

I call this the 'hoody, 2 hicaps and a bag of BB's in a dump pouch loadout'

Sometimes I rock a cheapo viper chest ring and midcaps in my special 'i'm too fat to be a speedsofter but wear paintball goggles anyway loadout' when playing CQB.

Deeply uncool I know -  I don't even run optics or sights on my guns most of the time now. Accuracy by volume and all that.

AKA "The Hope and Pray Bundle" ?

Best way pal. I'll be ditching the PC soon...but yes, I fully own being a gear whore ? 

 
If you are Southampton based, you should give Ambush Activities at Botley a try (if you haven't already). They have just (as in 2-3 weeks ago) moved away from Paintball completely and have become a dedicated airsoft site.

I'm hoping that they will be focusing on the optimising the field for Airsoft gameplay (it's very paintball-arena based at the moment) but the staff are friendly, have HPA fills on site, and the best run chrono station I have ever seen. Oh, and Dominos pizza gets delivered for lunch.

I plan to return there later in the year to see if they implement any changes.

Will do mate!


Interesting I didn't know that. I'll add it to my ever growing list of places to visit

 
Like maybe, occasionally playing south of the bale strip.....


That bit of the site is weird. You can't shoot into it, you can't shoot out of it. But you can shoot each other when you are in it. Again - a byproduct of trying to use a Paintball site for Airsoft methinks.

I will try the site again - but I'll give it 6 months or so, hopefully they will change things up a bit by then.

 
Hardcore on the diesel... NGL ?

That's understandable, no kids here at this point, just a girlfriend at the end of her tether ? ?

Yeah, I'll be honest, I couldn't believe my luck when i found out that NAF, essentially the biggest airsoft get-together, is literally outside my front door. We seem to have a nice mix of skirmish, CQB, Milsim all within 1 hour of us. Have you been to NAF before? Do you rate it? Haven't bought my ticket yet, but gunna have to soon. 
Hi bud.

Yes,as @Speedbird_666says,I have been going since 2016.

It's a bit like marmite. I like it because it's a bit of a get away from it all for the weekend with guns and games as a bonus.

Great festival atmosphere with plenty of gear being sold at good prices.

Games are as intense or laid back as you want. I like to play at a slower pace than the youngsters,but at the same time I try to stay on mission.

At the end of the weekend,if we win that's great and if we don't it's still great.

GIve it a try and see what you think.Be prepared for lots of walking though,it's a huge map ?

oh yeah loads of choice for food and the bar is pretty good lol.

See you there....

regards
