FPBBrandon Posted October 9, 2005 Report Share Posted October 9, 2005 I said mags for rare guns aren't cheap. In the real world, G3's aren't rare. In the airsoft world they are. Welcome to a place I like to call "the way things are". <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No, not really. The Amount of CA33s, marui SG1s, MC51s and other G3 based variants is pretty staggering. Your move.

expvideo Posted October 9, 2005 Report Share Posted October 9, 2005 I don't agree that hi-caps whould be "banned", but I DO think there should be an ammunition limit at some fields. Because of guys with an AK and 5 hicaps (total of 3000 rds) that just lay steady fire. I think 1000 rds is a little much, but a good max ammount. that's 3 M4 hicaps AND a 100rd midcap. Or 14 M4 standard mags. MORE than enough. 33 Star mags... Get where I'm going with this? Aaron Link to post Share on other sites
hippiehater44 Posted October 9, 2005 Report Share Posted October 9, 2005 shao14 mailed it exactly what i was saying but even a midcap isnt a good comprimise i think if they dont like the way these guys play then somebody else plan games and make your own rules Link to post Share on other sites
Hissing_Sid Posted October 10, 2005 Report Share Posted October 10, 2005 I just read a bit of that forum and that guy really DOES have a stick up his *albatross*. TBH, I've never really understood the mentality behind "The other guy has a hicap/C-mag/boxmag so I need one as well to make things fair." Cobblers. It only takes ONE BB to get somebody out. If you play in a proffesional manner and use realistic fieldcraft skills the biggest hicap in the world won't stop you from getting spanked. If somebody is hosing and is winning then why SHOULD he stop? His opposition is are the ones who need to come up with new tactics. If he's hosing but getting hit out often then surely common sense tells him to change his tactics? Link to post Share on other sites

Grimesy88 Posted October 10, 2005 Report Share Posted October 10, 2005 Also how would somebody carry a decent load with say G36 mags? They are twice as big as M16 ones and getting a decent vest to hold them would be an extra cost. Link to post Share on other sites

Your move. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Where exactly is this? Where I play, and where most other people play, M4's diminate, followed by MP5s and AKs. There aren't many G3s out there. Sure there may be a grand total of 5,000 G3 owners. Out of 60,000 AEG owners. I've only actually SEEN 5 G3s in WA in the last 5 years, and that is counting 2 PSG1s.

It seems that the experienced player with tactics is threatened by the hosing tactics noobs use. Link to post Share on other sites
M1911A2 guy Posted October 10, 2005 Report Share Posted October 10, 2005 Does this one man actually have any power or is it all just in his head? He sounds a bit of a muppet to be honest. You should get people together to tell him hes an idiot and obviously set out why lo-caps only is a negative way to go. Most new guns now come with hi-caps and its too expensive as you said to have lo-caps only. Obviously if its a mil-sim game then obviously it makes sense, but for a normal skirmish it seems daft to be so strict and makes it harder got new players. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> [/quot Obviously thats pretty obvious in an obvious manner. Was the sarcasm obvious enough? Anyways, I don't think lo-caps are a negative way to go, but you can't ban hi-caps. The reasons have been said numerous times before, but I started with a hi-cap. Then I got a steady job, and bought some STAR mags. Even then, if I could afford lo-caps,t eh real problem would be in buying gear. Unless you want to try and stuff 10+ mags into your pockets, this won't work. So, I don't think its a good idea. Besides, how does this *beep* have any power over deciding who plays with what kind of mag? Link to post Share on other sites
FPBBrandon Posted October 10, 2005 Report Share Posted October 10, 2005 Honestly no, not really. If reality for airsoft means no hicaps, and only people with money to buy that many mags just for getting the gun they LIKE, then I honestly dont wish to be involved anymore.

mcall83 Posted October 10, 2005 Report Share Posted October 10, 2005 man, people just don't seem to get it that no matter how real you try to make airsoft your still shooting plastic BBs I personally have an AUG and use one highcap and one lowcap. Most games I just use the hi. I like limited ammo for large organized games, it does tend to make the game play different. I however do not think that any one man should have control over what is allowed in a state for colorado or any state for that matter. The funny think is that people that come out with more than one hi cap and then hold the trigger down for 10 seconds at a time is that, single shot and good accuracy will probibly get you more kills. Its kinda funny how little I actaully full auto. Link to post Share on other sites

Litterally. That is so moving. As soon as you're done with that soap-box can I borrow it. By that logic, Germany should just give up being an armed country. It's just not fair, afterall.

Shao14 Posted October 10, 2005 Report Share Posted October 10, 2005 I don't think people who are nitpicking what kind of mags others use (or what kind of gear others wear in other discussions) have grabbed the essence of airsoft, and they are probably not really having fun playing airsoft. To them, airsoft has become a drag. Unfortunately, no one could be told what airsoft is, and he/she will just have to take the red pill to find out...ahem...right, back to topic: no I don't think hi cap should be banned, and most of the people I play use exclusively hi caps, and I have no problem going up against them with my load out.

FPBBrandon Posted October 10, 2005 Report Share Posted October 10, 2005 What blood? Youve only succeeded in proving to me that you're views in airsoft are pompous and inflated. Feel free to take this up with me in PM if you care to pursue it further, but I will stay away from this subject in the interest of the thread topic. Link to post Share on other sites
