Nice! Very good quality work. I think it would be good to show to someone who has never played/knows nothing about the game.

"airsoft has recieved a negative image from police/media because there are people who carry real firearms and act like they are toys..."
personally i've never heard of this, however would think it was the reverse where people run around neighborhoods with their airsoft acting like they're real, which would get more attention from the media and police.

We are kind of known for our Prison games.  We also play at the Roseville prison, and our next large event after OP: Redemption 2 will be at the Moundsville West Virginia Penitentiary which has also been featured on Ghost Hunters, Ghost Adventures and Paranormal State. Our next event at the Mansfield Reformatory will take place at night. |

Insanely jealous. And I was really expecting the guy to say something about kids running around in public with airsoft guns rather than people pretending real guns are toy guns. That really didn't make much sense. Back on topic though, I would buy a CQB gun just to play at these kinds of events. Also, I'm curious as to why they cut off the camera right when an airsoft grenade went in through the doorway, unless it was just a dummy. Sure scared everyone . |

I feel your pain, I am stuck in the black hole composed of Natty Light and Pink Polo's known as Oxford University. Perhaps 90 minutes from the event and without car, gear, or any feasible way to afford any of that outside of hustling foosball. |
