First, Congratulations! You've joined the community of Airsoft Pacific by creating a profile and posting on the boards!

APST (Airsoft Pacific Strike Team), is an 18+ invite only team. You have to prove your worth, show up, and not be a girl to join their ranks...(some say you also have to be an asshole, but there's one or two who get a waiver for that).

As for getting in to airsoft, the best thing to do is buy a gun and some gear, and show up to some games. There's something going on pretty much every weekend. Don't worry about joining a team until you find out who you fit in with and like running alongside.


Read the stickies, and welcome!

Most of the game threads will provide either directions, an address, or a link to directions on how to get there, as there are multiple fields in various locations. If all else fails, you can probably find someone to carpool with if you offer a little gas money in exchange for a ride.

For starting out, just get something comfortable for your body, and eye protection is a MUST. Face protection of some sort (be it shemagh or face mask) is advised but not required.

There is also a sub-forum for gear too ;)

welcome to AP! A sticky is something of enough importance that it needs a top spot in a forum area ;)

Welcome to AP.

If your into getting into the sport but are on a budget you can't go wrong with ALICE gear and Woodland. Local surplus stores are a good place to start.

Also taking a little time with your posts will help keep people from busting your balls.
