Do you AirSoft ???

I have two boys 12 and 10 and a roomy 54.
We all got these Airsoft guns to shoot each other with.
The boys really love do it.
Have you or do you do this???

My son and his buddies have the full autos that stick in a cardboard box . When all that started i bought a couple dozen sets of eye protection and put them in a bucket with a lid on it in my bushes. I told them i wouldn't come after them as long as they wore eye protection. They all wore them . Those guns are pretty cool

@TexChik Great mothering.
So many others would think that they shouldn't or wouldn't shoot one another anyway. LOL

@Dainbramadge That was all they did. They had "wars" that lasted all day. They would come in for something to drink and eat and their skin had red dots all over the place. I knew exactly what they would do. When I was a kid, we just used BB guns.

Do they hurt? Like would they bruise me?
I enjoyed paint balling. But i got bruises everywhere

@Dainbramadge im only 5 foot and skinny..Itd probably flick my nipple right off lool

They look fun haha

@Gangstress I might make a video of us playing. That would be cool.
Just wear a sweet shirt and you can still feel the hit or see it at worst.

@Dainbramadge aww yes ya should. It'd be great viewing 🤣
helenS · 36-40, F
Yes, of course. And we have lots of ammunition!
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@helenS We got 15,000 rounds, red, white and yellow, and each gun has an extra 16 round mag.
They are battery powered and shoot 180 fps so we don't have to worry about welts. LOL
They have a selector switch from semi to full auto.

@Dainbramadge I was criticized by some other moms to do "war games" 🙄
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@helenS OMG!!!! Some people want to suck all the fun out of being a good parent.
Battle on super Mom. :-)

No but I would enjoy doing it with the kids, lol. Been awhile since I've looked but this is not a very cheap hobby at all.
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@SW-User WEll it depends how deep you want to get.
We got the guns off Amazon for $35 or $40.
Ammo is real cheap.
But I just posted a video on this thread of some guys who have serious money invested.

@Dainbramadge Well that's not too bad...guess like you said it's only a high dollar if you go crazy with it. Will have to look into this. Surprise the kids and piss off my wife all in one fell swoop 🤣
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@SW-User Make sure you get the ones that shoot like around 180 fps.
240 might be a bit much. Never tried that one.
But some of these guns are insane and shoot 400 fps. LOL
They have Co2 powered. Electric like the ones we have or just spring and piston powered.

Yeah they can be fun but you can really make a mess with all the BBS. I think they make catchers for them.
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@ruckuz Dude. We have BB's everywhere.
All over outside you can't walk a foot without seeing a scad of them at your feet.
Then there is the house. LOL. I saw a stink bug on the ceiling the other day and wondered if I could shoot it. That wondering lasted about 1/10th of a second and I unloaded a full mag on full auto on it.
I got the bug ... and a mess of BB's all over the kitchen. LOL

I'd love to see the video..PM me if you post it...don't wanna miss that!
*Paintball hits lens* Oh well next time
ruckuz · 41-45, M
One day we froze the paintballs to give em more kick!
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@ruckuz You need not go there. There was a company back when I played a lot, don't know if they still do this, that made a ball with wax in it to help keep the mark from smudging. AKA cheating. LOL.
With the added wax it increased the density of the paint and made it hit like a brick.
I mean, at 250 fps a normal paintball can leave a welt. The wax filled was guaranteed to leave a bloody festering welt. LOL
ProBall was the company that made this evil mix. LOL
bookerdana · M
Is it like paintball??
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@bookerdana Yes only less painful at 180 fps.
I used to play a lot of paintball back in the day.
Had a five man team and played Ohio, Chicago, Pittsburgh Penn., Indian app. Indiana. etc.
This isn't as physical and like I said no welts. LOL
bookerdana · M
@Dainbramadge Well it sounds like great fun for you and yer guys and the new no welts formula

No. I'm more paintball.
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@Azlotto God, I used to love that game.
I spent so much time and money on it and loved every minute.
