Further Sniper Skills
Want to go further than just turning up to a site in your ghillie, rifle in hand, with your little cameras rolling? Of course you do, because otherwise it’d get stagnant fast. What related skills is it worth the sniper learning? The team has just been looking at a non-airsoft hide and seek event that…

Dual Wielding in Airsoft
Not on about twin pistol setups, this was a discussion in one of my groups last week regarding carrying two weapon systems. Firstly, as a CQB player carrying an assault rifle with either a second assault rifle or an SMG as a backup. And secondly, the age old question of a sniper carrying some kind…

Stepping it up – An Urban Airsoft Loadout
A guide to my CQB/Urban loadout for this year’s England vs Scotland game, and what I’ve learned about kit from years of playing one of the toughest weekends in the airsoft calendar. Obviously, this is stipsniper.com, not stipcqb.com, and to be honest the urban side of the game really isn’t my strong point, although I…

A few thoughts on building a kit suitable for battlesims, milsims and weekend events, from a skirmish setup. This isn’t a sniper blog, it’ll be for those running as part of a team with an aeg. Which is always fun from time to time. Following on from the England vs Scotland game (report and intro…

The Ghillie Guide
The complete ghillie building guide. I’ve been working on a few little camouflage articles lately, but decided that instead of having lots of seperate articles to flick through, I’d just put them all in one place, and have one resource to help you build a suit from scratch, or help develop your current one. Rather…

Are snipers just lazy campers?
Camping, laying around in bushes. Are snipers lazy players? I was following a post in a general airsoft group on Facebook and there’s clearly a very different perception of the sniper role from those who do it, and the wider community. But I don’t think it’s fair to label us snipers as lazy, or campers.…

Putting the Sniper Rifle Down…
Nah don’t worry, I’m not retiring. I’ve got an event coming up in December and I thought it might interest some people to go through the kit even if it doesn’t feature a bolt action rifle. Because all airsofters love kit discussion. The Event Stirling Airsoft’s England vs Scotland 2018 at Catterick. I’ve been very…
