Re: Bay area get together when?
I apoligize to the viewers of this forum for the fact that I have taken it off track - but I figure, since it's just us locals, that you will give me a break.
Okay patrick, you da man. I don't have time to get into a lengthly research/education project like I usually do. You haven't sucked me into the whole combat simulation airsoft scene, but you have got my attention.
Take your best shot at a recommendation - I put myself in your hands. Here's the situation - amongst my 4wd club, I have successfully vanquished all commers in the portable light department with my X990. Now it's time to open up a new arena. When we get back to camp from wheeling, there is time to kick back and relax before dinner. A little target practice would be a perfect activity, but we have a "no fire arms in camp" policy (that, of course, is limited to lethal fire arms). I need something as realistic as possible in order to suck in my "45 acp only" friends /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grinser2.gif.
If I can't hook 'em with RC off road cars, I'll get them to blow their wallets on airsoft replicas /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/evilgrin07.gif. My friend has a love/hate relationship with his Kimber. He also owns an H&K 45. Anything close to these with realistic handling would be great. BTW, I think we can eliminate from consideration the one shot per gun "ignited green gas" option.
Also, is it better to purchase locally or go internet.
