  • A Team Building Exercise

    I’ve been without a team for a while now. Sniper events and other sniper-related projects keep me very busy. But I do miss the experience of running with a team, doing some of the short range stuff and the social aspect of not being alone in the field for two days. So, I’ve decided to…

    Carrying kit is vital. And every event has a different requirement in terms of what you need to take. In previous articles, I’ve talked about how I get away with an easy life at most airsoft weekenders because it’s usually camping from the car park, and you can carry as much as you need to…

    Dirty Dog Airsoft, Shildon, North East UK. My home site since it first opened its doors, and I played there for many years beforehand as well so I’ve seen the evolution. I thought it was about time I showcased it, why I love it, and why it’s worth a visit. The site has seen a…

    Partly an event review, partly the result of some prodding from @airsoft_katastrophe on insta, a blog about an away trip with a difference this weekend, to an airsoft fair. And as far as I’m aware, the only one of its type in the UK. And it’s well worth a visit. Here’s how my day went.…

    Looking at putting together a Gothic Serpent kit for a Black Hawk Down event later this year. It is, by a mile, my favourite film and in all the years playing I’ve managed to do a BHD-sim only once, with Stirling Airsoft at Catterick. On that occasion, the team and I stretched only to a…

    Operation Overkill Dirty Dog Airsoft, Shildon UK 27/05/23 Dirty Dog has been my local site for many, many years. It’s one of the most relaxed skirmish sites you’ll ever come across – always a good atmosphere, plenty of laughs, easy short games with plenty of breaks in the safezone to socialise, and gameplay that works…

  • The Airsoft Recon Role

    Building an airsoft recon loadout for the warmer weather, combining the best bits of lots of other roles, with a view to providing bigger teams with an alternative to sniper fireteams. Think LRRP or LRDG type action, which was a big part of the inspiration, but in airsoft. I’ve had a lot of downtime recently…

    Airsoft has (d?)evolved into a fantastically varied experience compared to where it was as recently as ten years ago. The safe zone is awash with all sorts of different characters, from paintball influenced speedsofters to milsim operators, bedroom YouTube warriors, pink mandalorians, gamers wearing cat ears, hawaiian shirts and animal onesies. It’s a far more…

    A few kit lists for your airsoft game days. I’ve done loads fo blogs about what kit I take, and why, and why I’ve chosen certain things over others that I’ve used. What I thought might be helpful would just be a straight up packing list that you guys might be able to print off,…

  • Sniper Tactics – Bounding

    Airsoft sniping is all about good movement and good decisions. I’ll be expanding on this a lot in the coming weeks. One of the most fundamental techniques is bounding, which isn’t just limited to AEG users in a concrete playground. I’ll be breaking this idea down both with a sniper pair, and as a solo…
