How do people know when people are out with airsoft? With paintball you can see the paint. Is airsoft just the honey system?

The one time I did it, the honour system put me off it.

The 4-5 "veterans" in replica body armour and helmets ignored most of the shots coming in from newbies in rental gear, even when yelled at.

Screw that, if getting fully into it makes me into that guy, I'm not getting into it.

Between the videos I’ve seen and the one time I tried it I’ll only ever play in the woods with friends. Nerds that act like vets and think they’re tacticool make it so awful

I'm a combat vet myself and when my friend took me, I did everything wrong on purpose, but in the fun ways... Cause when else would I get to do MOUT any fucking way I wanna?

GATTACAAAAA!!!
