Name (First name, last name is optional): Nick

Experience (How long have you been playing airsoft? any military experience?) I'm pretty new at airsoft. I bought a starter pack about six months ago and I really want to move on to a sniper rifle. I was originally a paintball player, but I got sick of all the paint because it got really messy and annoying. Sniping was my favorite part in paintball though, and I want to get into airsoft because most of the weapons are real replicas of real military weapons and just plain real guns in general. I have no military experience, but my grandfather became a bomber pilot right when World War II was about over.

You're arsenal (What are you shootin'?): I have a starter kit from Crosman (sadly) and I am thinking about getting a kjw M700 this summer. I am really looking forward to this!

Your camo (Did you make your ghillie suit? or do you even use one?): I really want to make a ghillie suit this summer! I can't wait! I live in Michigan and mainly I play in a woodland area.

What are your other hobbies?: My hobbies are: playing guitar, video games (especially video games with sniper rifles), sports, and hunting.

Where do you live? (No exact address, simply saying the state and/or country will suffice): Michigan (Eastern)

Welcome buddy, I too live on the Eastern Side of Michigan (Oakland County to be exact). I suppose I'll share a little info about myself with you.

I've been playing airsoft for a little over a year now as a dedicated player. I roll as Livonia's Spotter for a good portion of time but sometimes I'll roll lone wolf with a sniper rifle. I learned all my tools of the trade by watching Livonia (Those who have seen him play on the field can vouch that he is a formitable opponent). I shoot a Maruzen APS-2 with a few upgrades here and there (Tightbore, PSS2 Aero Chamer, Laylax Version 3 Cylinder Set, Vacuum Piston, PDI 300% Spring.. yada yada soon to get harris rock mount bipod).

I'm also in the Delayed Entry Program to be a US Navy SEAL. So I workout and learn things from them every first wednesday of every month and every monday of every week. (The monday's are just working out.. but the Wednesday's are things we'd actually learn in BUD/s).

Anyways, welcome aboard. I hope that I can shoot with/at you sometime. Cheers,

Thank you Mosin for the warm welcome. I'm still sorry about the rough start. Anyways, I think it would be fun to go airsofting with you sometimes, (first I want to get my rifle though). Good luck with the Delayed Entry Program to become a US Navy SEAL, it sounds like you are very dedicated to serving our country. It must be cool to hang out with other trainees and vets. I live in Harrison Twp. to be exact, and my family also has some property up around Roger City, its near Posen and Alpena, around the tip of the pointer finger of Michigan. Thats where I hunt most of the time. I'm looking forward to learning a lot about airsofting from this forum, and I hope to be a member for a good long while.

Thanks for the welcome,
