    Hey, just wondering if there might be any Airsofters on EC. If so, what are your favorite brands, loadout, just regular stuff.

    Who knows, we might even be able to form a purely LGBTQ Airsoft team!

    If you don't know what Airsoft is, direct your attention here: Airsoft - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Yes! Airsoft is the shiz. I haven't gotten to play in forever, but I'm set equipment-wise. Because if you ask anyone who's really into it, it is absolutely a tactical fashion show. :grin:

    I have a pretty generic "assault" loadout loosely based on USAF regulations, but have made steadily increasing concessions for functionality. Right now I've got a JG M16A2 with a 6.03mm tightbore, a no-name (but full metal :slight_smile:) gas blowback M9 pistol, and 6 120rd. mags in a molle plate carrier.

    Hopefully I can get out to romp around again soon.

    Yeah, I'm gunning for a Russian Special Forces or regular Russian Army loadout.

    I currently have a CYMA AK-47 with some rail covers and a flashlight/laser on the front of it. I'm using a Lancer Tactical Crossdraw vest with plexiglass plates.

    This X-mas, I'm getting the rest of the usual stuff: BDUs, boots, patches, helmet, etc.

    I used to play it alot but my guns broke and I don't want to shell out the money to get back into it, besides I rarely get invited to play it nowadays.

    still a fun sport though

    Yeah, it's kind of expensive to build up and maintain.

    Btw, I love your username. :slight_smile:

    Right now I'm in full 'Murica mode, but I do love the look of some Soviet weapons, namely the RPK and the SVD. If I could have either of those (especially a gas SVD with real wood stock) I would be in heaven.

    I'm not sure about the SVD, but I know that they sell aftermarket wooden kits for the RPK and PKP machine gun.

    I myself don't play airsoft but I do enjoy NIC nerifing witch is very similar to airsoft only a little bit safer (even thowe some of the more powerful homemades when shot in close range will go threw flesh) becase it is played with modded nerf guns (that are often modded to shoot homemade darts like slugs (painful) and hot glue domes (VERY painful

    Ouch! That sounds pretty bad compared to Airsoft! :slight_smile:

    I suppose you wear protective clothing or something like that?

    Hey, other airsofters! Starting playing about a year ago. Using a WE G36C. What type of games do you guys normally play, for example milsim, scenarios, team deathmatch?
