If you want authentic, then you need to do it the way we are doing it. We use all of the original equipment EXCEPT live ammo. Although, you can get hurt if you get too close to the weapon when it's firing! Airsoft are plastic toys.

Friend(enemy),

What and When is your first battle? Ft. Indiantown GAP is coming up in January (Battle of the Bulge) are you coming to that one? Matt

[ferdockm]

88pie88, I've been to allot of battles and I can tell you, it's all about good referees. When you know there's a ref nearby, then your targets will get shot up. The other way I do it, is I wait until the guy is lookng at me, then I pop him and 9 times out of 10 he takes his hit. You can't spray ammo and hope to hit. You've really got to pik your targets.

No one takes a hit at the GAP. It's a piss poorly run tactical event. Just go there for the shopping and kameraderie.

[ferdockm]

Friend,

I agree. The tactical has too many rules, not enough judges, not enough action.

[KlausGunther]

Those morons in that half track are dead, thats bs, that MG42 would have ripped it to shreads irl and a twin oh hell on earth.

[ferdockm]

Calm down friend. What you didn't see what that a US 37mm gun parked down the road fired first at the German halftrack, then the Americans assaulted. So in fact, the German should sit down and stop reloading his weapon as he is dead by rule.

Pretty realistic..... up to the part where NO ONE GOT SHOT!!

[KlausGunther]

Its american reenacters they are all John Waynes and Dirty Harrys they dont die..

[the82spartans]

Cut!

Next scene to film is about the idiots commenting on this thread and why their opinions don't matter what-so-ever.

[Dercommandingofficer]

Bunch of fat old men who are too obese to run. Oh and why does no one get shot?

[muffinmanxxx321]

@KlausGunther This is absolutely 100% true! The American soldiers think that just because they won the war they mustve won every engagement as well. Its ridiculous, they believe that the German soldiers just do reenacting just to be killed by American soldiers. I wish the American soldiers would call a hit now and then, but alas they never will...

[1994WN]

Good hit taking guys! NOT!!!

[Allieisatastyflavor]

@ferdockm although i do agree with needing original equipment for authenticity. many airsoft guns arent p[plastic toys. companies like classic army make full metal and wood (if its called for) replicas for airsoft being built to the same specifications and weight. superficially they are identical. i guess all im sayin, is that you shouldnt knock airsoft. its a great game and theres something really satisfying in a sick sort of way when you actually shoot your opponent. i

[KILROY9THSS]

yea but both tracks where supposed to be dead..

[seaweed555]

Nobody gets hit from automatic fire?

[diadorim1234]

the german soldier is standing up while there are 2 american halftrackts 10 meters in range?????.

[Eggdude16]

real shooting????
