For those that think airsoft is just silly...
It's affordable Force on Force training. People with more money use Simmunition wax bullets. The problem for individuals like myself is that I cannot easily find people serious about Force on Force training. Even with airsoft gear, there is a substantial investment in equipment and skill so that there are few people willing to do more than play a silly game, and they usually don't invite me. The ones who will invite me, for a fee, usually use simmunition.
Let's face it. There are a lot more people in the US fascinated with hoarding guns than there are with a serious interest in training and acquiring skills in their use.
AirSoft is a tool. And just like any other tool, it can be used for good or bad. I see the good potential in training, no matter how well equipped. As long as the training has value and the trainees walk away with new or improved skills, I believe it would mean success.For those that think airsoft is just silly...
Agreed, same here. And I applaud you, sir, (and others) for seeking out training. Trying to use a tool without trained skills and mindset can be a very dangerous endeavor.The problem for individuals like myself is that I cannot easily find people serious about Force on Force training.
Agreed. I am always surprised at the lack of training desire whenever I visit my local CHL instructor during his class. Last 2 months, 0 people have signed up for his class. But I think over 100 got their CHL. I don't like that math.Let's face it. There are a lot more people in the US fascinated with hoarding guns than there are with a serious interest in training and acquiring skills in their use.
Yep.I would say this video emphasizes dry practice more than playing airsoft.
Yep. The operative question is how to go about it.AirSoft is a tool. And just like any other tool, it can be used for good or bad. I see the good potential in training, no matter how well equipped. As long as the training has value and the trainees walk away with new or improved skills, I believe it would mean success.
