Airsoft shop for waterford

munster_mafia

Just taught I'd let any airsofters out there know who haven't heard that there is a new shop opening in town very soon.

seanybiker

Oh cool. Where is it gonna be ?

munster_mafia

I haven't heard yet seany, only that it is in town.

seanybiker

Ah right no worries. I'll keep me eyes peeled so.

How much damage would you do with an airsoft gun?

munster_mafia

Not a lot. Irish law means they have to be less than 1 joule. It's for sport to use in games, it's not about hurting anyone/anything.

Jaysus lads this is not what's it all about. It's a sport played on dedicated sites. It is not home protection and if you do so you will be the one who ends up in jail. If you use them improperly you will be treated by the Gardai a having posesion of a firearm.

Hope He does well. I met Tony and the lads a couple of times cause I was trying to get into airsofting before I wrecked my back. He's a sound bloke.

It'll be a tough going I'd say but I'm hoping to take it up again over the summer as my back is 90% there so he'll def be seeing me.

Really? Where in Tramore?

hellfireie

It's called the Manor and you can find it on Facebook the Whiskey Delta lads run it and is ment to be one of the best in Ireland because of the type of woodland and buildings there. It's also in this months SitRep Airsoft magazine which is a new Irish Airsoft magazine available online and is free.

That's true. It's a more realistic day out than paintballing. Plus you can own your own gear without needing a license.

It would appear this chap just went around bumping any threads to do with airsoft before he got banned. Strange one.

and i thought bumping was similar to dogging seanie ..... :P

The shop is ment to be open on the 29th of this month and is in the city centre area, thank god there will be one less unit lying idle, might mean a few jobs too so well done for tony for taking a chance and i wish him all the best with the venture. if anyone who doesnt know what airsoft is, think paintball but a whole lot cheaper( games costs between 10/20 euros weekly and big events 60+ players the last sunday of the month) age range from 14 years and up. The local site is 10mins from the city centre and is on 20 acres of woodland and buildings. its def worth a go once and see what you think.

seanybiker

I'm dying to get an airsoft sniper rifle. 20 acres sounds class. Hopefully it will be a great success. People nowadays want a cheap way of fun and after paying for equipment airsoft is fairly cheap.

I'll second that for anyone interested, what you really need the first time playing is to do it with a group who plays in the spirit of the game. Such as taking hits and not being a díckhead. You'll see guys who take it very "seriously" with all the gear and stuff but it's important not to feel intimidated like.

Over the summer Hellfireie I might open up a new thread for anyone who wants to give it a go for the first time and we can all go down together. Be easier for people to take it up if they weren't new and alone. I'll facebook ya at some point and we might organise it.

kensutz

Definitely interested in giving this a go. I've been always toying with the idea but some weekends never suit.

hellfireie

Great idea Ziedth ,could make it a waterford boardie's event ?
