LT Mac of the HMSG has written a review of the Viper Xm-177:

Hey Troops, LT MAC here. As you know I just got my Viper Xm-177 review up on our Historical Military Simulations blog.

Check out these new reliability videos!

I stand by my review:

“The Viper XM-177 is the best air soft gun I have ever held. The workmanship is better than the Inokatsu guns in my opinion. As soon as I get my hands on the M16A1 version I will have my 2 primary combat weapons. In combination with the ProWin 20rd magazine they are a very realistic and satisfying combination for Vietnam operations.”

NEW to Enforce-logic – Alt-Berg Sneeker Boots

We have now received our first stock of the Alt-Berg Sneeker Boot.  We have a limited range of sizes at the moment for immediate delivery, but we are still waiting for the Aqua version.

THE SNEEKER BOOT is a specialist boot – first developed for military uses in close proximity/rapid deployment situations. It has become popular on a more widespread basis as a non waterproof military ‘tabbing’ boot and with the police as a lightweight general duties boot or a firearms boot for urban situations. The midsole is a unique design which allows sufficient forefoot flex for ‘kneel to fire’ whilst retaining good torsional resistance for load carrying on uneven surfaces. The MKII version uses a new upper design, internal Cambrelle lower foot lining and new microlite Vibram sole. £134.99 (more info)

RAP4 gear can be seen in this video with military personnel training using their T68 rifles:

Real Action Paintball is proud to support the vital training of US Army Combat Lifesavers – the medics who provide first response treatment to soldiers and civilians wounded during combat. As tough as it is to train for actual combat, it’s even harder to train in the heroic art of providing medical attention in the middle of a firefight. RAP4’s industry-leading equipment, in wide use by military and police forces, makes that training come to life.

Many combat units receive pre-deployment training at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. With a special partnership to provide equipment and familiarization, RAP4 is able to work with many of these units in tactical simulations. Their sprawling campus features variable terrain, temporary and permanent obstacles, and plenty of room for tactical maneuvers. When they take to the field, instead of carrying duty arms with blanks, they carry the less expensive and far more interactive training tools in the T68 family of paintball markers.

The T68 family of .68 caliber paintball markers are designed to replicate the size, ergonomics, aesthetics, and many user controls of the M16 family of combat rifles. CQB models faithfully replicate the handling of M4 carbines, the wealth of mil-spec rails accept standard-issue accessories, and the markers handle and point exactly like the duty gear they’ll carry into action. Whereas this hyper-realism is cool for scenario games, it becomes truly important for military units that train as they will have to fight.

In recent field exercises at Fort Bragg, members of the Medical Brigade carried T68 markers through ambush scenarios and other tactical training maneuvers. The interactivity of shooting actual projectiles brought their training up to a new standard. Now personnel can respond appropriately to hits on various parts of the body, rather than drilling in general procedure and theory. They experience the reality of being shot at, more than merely hearing blanks discharged. They pay the penalty for sloppy tactics in actually getting hit with something, and can use real (but safe) suppressive fire to evacuate "wounded" personnel from the front lines of an engagement.

Personnel marveled at the effects of training with the paintball marking gear, commenting on how it exceeds previous training systems and makes their exercises truly replicate action. Combat veterans involved in the maneuvers embraced the technology, citing the benefit of conditioning troop responses to realistic scenarios and being able to account for hits, misses, successes and failures with the visual aid of paint splats during after action reviews. You don’t get that with blanks, or lasers, or long classes on the theory of combat medicine…

But you do get that with Real Action Paintball markers and training tools.

Real Action Paintball – As Real as it Gets! (RAP4)

Bear with us if you are trying to access our forums, we are currently doing some planned maintenance. Forums won’t be accessible until this is complete. I’ll tag updates on here as I go.

Update@1533: Sorry upgrades never ever go to plan. But I’m sat here working on it with two tickets at two other technical teams as this is a known issue and can be fixed.

Update@1540: Okay we are rolling back the software version to the latest version of our current forum software. Unfortunately we can’t upgrade the forum to the latest “awesome” version until another upgrade has been done. I’ve got a ticket in asking for that to be done for us now.

The forums are offline until the upgrades are done. I’ll unlock them as soon as it is done. ETA should only be minutes away.

..and 3.2.1 we’re back in the room. The forums are back online, we’re now running the latest version that we can until we get a full OS upgrade on our rack. Apologies for the downtime.

Gerald has had an idea to get an Airsoft based milsim tv show off the ground. To get things going he’s asking for you guys to contact Discovery Channel and tell them you love the idea.

Here’s the details:

Hello my name is Gerald Mahler I have recently submitted a show idea to Discovery Networks for The Military Channel called Mission Milsim ID#4770 the show idea is basically an international Airsoft competition pitting the best Milsim teams from all around the world against each other in force on force combat which will culminate in the winning Milsim team going up against a U.S. Navy SEALs team if they win.

It all starts as any Airsoft team petitioning for competition they would then travel to a specially constructed camp where they must first pass the Obstacle and team fire events in military fashion in order to be considered for competition. Once approved they would then compete with all the other passing international teams for the number 1 team slot. Then its SEAL Time. The actual competition will be held in any suitable Airsoft center, Field or Military Facility anywhere in the free world.

Scenarios will range from all the best we know of like escort through hostile territory; downed pilot etc. the sky is the limit. This will give everyone the ability to showcase their fields of play. Like you I am a member and advocate for Airsoft callsign RICO member of team SOCOM of Northern California at TeamSOCOMUSA.Proboards.com.

The only way this show has any chance at all is for all of us in the Airsoft community, retail and manufacturing side to contact Discovery mention that you are interested in watching or purchasing commercial time for the concept show Mission Milsim ID#4770 and it might have a chance to go from concept to production.

What this show has that the others didn’t is everyone has the opportunity to be on Mission Milsim there is no set cast and will always change just like the missions and locations. I have already started posting on the Airsoft forums and everyone loves the concept and is looking forward to seeing it. I will also send this message to the other Airsoft retailers, manufacturers, Game developers and all branches of the United States Military recruitment departments to kick the tires and light fires on the first ever national prime time airsoft television show.
