I guess you could PM me, but if they are hardcore noob questions, I'll ban you.

Greetings all! My name is Jeff, I’m a Mil-Sim gamer, who about ten months ago got tired of sitting on his six.  I looked at paintball, but immediately didn’t like it because of how the guns looked/felt and how it was played. Luckily for me I saw an episode of Tactical to Practical that had a piece about airsoft. I did some research and after quite some time found out about Jungle Toy, and decided to visit the Tempe JT (would eventually become Gearbox Airsoft) and met Paul for the first time, who pointed me to what would be my first AEG a CYMA MP5-J. The rest, as they say, is history. Today, thanks to Matt, Paul, Ron, and Vince. I have most of my gear, a rebuilt (by Paul) KJW M-1911 Para, afore mentioned CYMA MP5-J, and a soon to be upgraded CA SCAR-Light.  I’m looking forward to joining you guys on the field within a few months, and once again thanks to all that have helped me this far.

Name's Kevin, I've been paintballing for the past couple years and figured it costs way too much to play without a sponsorship or lots of friends and ground to play on, so just recently stumbled upon airsofting.  I was interested before paintballing but i got pulled one direction so now I trying something new.  I never really had any military experience minus 2 years in rotc, and am currently just a student working on a degree in the medical field.  Hope to make some new friends and get started on this forum!

I was reccomended by Supporter to start doing airsoft in games. I ended up becoming highly impressed with operation Irene. So i thought what the hell i might as well register. There is too many games to choose from. I currently enlisted in the US Marine Corps so i cant wait to do some combat sim. Hope to see you guys out there.

Hello, i am new. I am a college student at MCC, I met a friend in class talking about it and i was interested in airsoft. I only played paintball twice in my life. I played airsoft with the person i met in class and a few of his buddies. I invited my friend too and we are really interested in airsoft now.

I just bought digital camouflage ACU i believe, tactical chest rig, and a camel back all the same or similar camo type from the army surplus today. I just got my first and stock gun, it is a D-Boys SPR MK12 full metal rifle.

Um, i spent days researching and reading about airsoft safety and tips from MiA for 3 days so i have an idea of what to do and get.

I am thinking of joining in Red Dagger as my first ops but i am not 100% sure, right now it is a 60% chance i might go.

Hm, i think that is it and nice meeting all of you.

Red Dagger will DEFINATELY be worth going to. I would recomend however, that you go to a regular game first, to get some experience under your belt. Welcome abord.  :)

Well, the first time we played was playing 3 v 3 on a mountain area... lots of climbing and hiding. Then the next meet up we trained at a friends place on comm with my battle buddy and combat situations with trash bins... it isn't much, and i know it isn't much but i will cram some time to train a bit with my friends... i think next meet up is to train with full on gear... but first things first i need to complete my gear... i still need 8, 100 cap mags...

Hey everybody, I just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Foley and I’ve been airsofting for about a year and a half now. I frequently get together with my small group of friends and go airsofting on the weekends. Today I was able to attend Airsofter1’s game and I must say it was awesome. I had a great time and I was glad I was able to meet some of you. I hope I have the privilege of going to future AA events with you guys.
