Make it hard
Balancing the defensive mindset against the offensive mindset in Airsoft. Today I found myself quoted on a French Paintball site. Of course, where better to learn as a Paintball sniper than to come here? The tactics and ideas are the same regardless of the equipment. I’ll translate : “Attack all you like, but if you…

Site review: Shoot House Airsoft
I travelled to Székesfehérvár in Hungary to check out Airsoft in their country… It’s not normally a country that crops up a lot on my social media, but I know they do some good Milsim events and I do get a lot of blog visits from Hungary each month, so I decided to go and…

Bug in or bug out?
A common question in the prepping community, and one that forms the basis for your kit and kit preparation. Do you pack a bag and head out into the great unknown, or do you turn your house into a self sustaining fortress? If you’ve read the first article in the “Survivalist” section, I’m not looking…

Does it bring great dishonour to their family to take a step backwards every now and then? In previous blogs I’ve…

Using Cover and Defence
Attack all you like, but if you can’t defend yourself then you’re not going to be attacking effectively as you spend half the day walking back to the respawn. So how do you go about minimising the threat to yourself? Well, there’s concealment and cover, and defensive tactics. Concealment is your camouflage. Welcome to stipsniper.com,…

Objectives
Airsoft is a game, and ultimately to win the game (or if it’s boring, to end the game), a team will have to complete the game objective. In either case, you want to be completing the objective as quickly as possible, before the enemy team does. Otherwise you lose and everyone will call you a…

Working as a Team
As much as we’d like to believe some of the absolute “weapons” on social media that think they can win games on their own, Airsoft is a team game. It might be the classic two-team game or perhaps you’re fighting in lots of small teams of 4, but you have to work together to achieve…
