L00b   441 #25 Posted February 9, 2013 (edited) Ouch I bet getting rid of those babies haunts you every day Weeell, maybe not every day, but... I got out of the hobby when I moved back to the UK - far too much on my plate at that time, and it's never relented since.  Used to be very involved with the hobby in Ireland, as it was just taking off (2005-2008 ). I was one of the founding members, and a committee member (legal affairs) for the first 2 years, of their national association (the IAA). Drafted their original Constitution. Good times Edited February 9, 2013 by L00b Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Bruce_Shark   10 #26 Posted February 9, 2013 (edited) ...On the subject then, anyone wanna show off their loadout? Interesting to hear what people have got...  Since I'm into WW2, it'll not surprise you to hear I've got a Thompson and a Sten, full load outs for British and US forces.  Have plenty of other kit too...

RootsBooster   24 #28 Posted February 9, 2013 I've often wondered, do littering laws apply to airsofting? I mean, we're talking depositing thousands of pieces of (usually non bio-degradable) plastic around the countryside Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Bruce_Shark   10 #30 Posted February 9, 2013 I've often wondered, do littering laws apply to airsofting? I mean, we're talking depositing thousands of pieces of (usually non bio-degradable) plastic around the countryside  A lot of the bbs are Bio and dissolve naturally. I can't see a problem with it, most of them are that small you just cannot see them.  AND, lets not forget, this is private land, not "the countryside" in general, there's nothing toxic/offensive (unless you count the emissions from last nights curry, from many gamers), there are far bigger things to worry about going on in this world...  ...like a lack of exercise potentially causing significant health issues in future life, and a burden on society and the NHS.  At least airsofters are out and about, socialising (for real, not just trolling on a keyboard) and getting exircise.

Vannguard   10 #31 Posted February 10, 2013 Since I'm into WW2, it'll not surprise you to hear I've got a Thompson and a Sten, full load outs for British Commando, British Gliderborne (South Staff's), Polish Para', US Para (101/502PIR) and US Infantry. Coldwar I'm part of a group that do a generic line rifle unit, the "Royal Union Rifles", so have a trusty SLR (L1A1).  Have plenty of other kit, but I've probably bored the socks off you already...  which commando unit have you gone for? if you dont mind me asking. ive got a 41 commando unifrom / loadout with a thompson, but i am wanting to get a sten gun sometime soon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
