Here for fun

Postby tacticalpanda » Sat Jul 23, 2011 5:18 pm

Hello all,
I'm new to Airsoft but use to play paintball alot back in the day; So I'm a old noob, or something like that. I live in the Beaverton area of Or, and work downtown as a tender of a bar. So I have been lurking around on this sight for awhile and I finally took the plunge and got a G&G G15 raider. looking forward to going to a game soon. well talk to guys later, and see around.

Welcome and have fun!
I do hope that after all this discreditable shuffling we may be taken into action. It has a wonderful way of reconciling a man with himself: and with everybody else, sometimes. - 1st Lt. James Dillon

thanks for the warm welcome, I thought I would save a lot of headaches by just spending a little extra cash on a gun that will be reliable.

No. Back in the day, you were 8. Back in the day, we used pump paintball guns. Back in the day, a big hopper held 40 balls.

Oh, I like your moniker--that's amusing. And welcome to AP!

Sheridan pump rifles...one of the few (if not the only) paintball gun with a wood stock.

I won't say it...yeah, I will..."those were the days."

By the way, it's "wolves," not "wolfs" but I've given you enough grief in your intro thread. Welcome to AP!

"Back in the day" Jager was 8 and I used my trusty red rider as my primary. My sidearm was a wire slingshot loaded with pea gravel.
