New Airsofter in Flagstaff
« on: June 10, 2008, 11:20:23 PM »
I was wondering how many people on the forum live near flag, if they play regularly and what not. I was told this was the forum of choice for airsoft in Arizona.

I am especially interested in tactical (MilSim?) airsoft, and would like to attend the next Balkan Hammer at Camp Navajo with some measure of competence.

Welcome to the boards, Franklin. I'm sure some folks in Flag will chime in sometime soon. We do have games in Prescott, but you're going to be hard pressed to find monthly games that far north, at least I would imagine.

Welcome. At least the travel time for Balkin Hammer and Red Dagger won't be rough on you!

How often are there games in Prescott, on average. I would really like to get some games in, so that I stop making noob mistakes and become a challenge for folks.

Most of the games seem to happen more near Phoenix like at Four Peaks. During the summer we start looking up north like Prescott, but not as frequent. DUrng the sumer expect a few trips up there.

As long as your over 18 check out my game on the 28th, its the BAS game. YOu should be able to get a good feel for the game there.

I am still building the basics. But I have an Echo 1 M249, a tactical vest and goggles. By August I hope to have the rest of my gear situated.

I am trying to get some folks up her into it so that we can get some pickup games with decent turnout.

Haha what a beastly gun!! i dig the look but even as a built guy i dont welcome the aspect of the lost mobility! though the intimidation of them for keeping heads down rocks

The loss of mobility is acceptable to me. My loss of mobility will not be as much as others. The gun only weighs about 14 pounds, which I am told is no where near the real saw. As I am a large guy (6'5" & 330) it will not slow me down much.

My only concern is that with so long a barrel, CQB is not where this gun will shine. Anywhere else, its kinda scary/exciting. I can hardly wait to use it on other targets than empty cans and boxes.

3lbs less than a real SAW when its empty. Loaded, the "base model" of the SAW is 22 pounds(mine wieghed closer to 25 becuase of the rail system, PEQ, an optics).

Thank you for the info. That does not seem like that much, but I am sure it is a different story when you have to lug the thing around all day.
