daily dose of Sports

tomorrow, february 22, 2009, me and my comrades will go to war. not an actual war actually but the bi-annual north versus south airsoft "game". so here i am hyped up about the game and it looks like i'm gonna make a post about my teammates as i have nothing to do..yet. i don't even know if i can find photos of my teammates but i'll give it a try. here we go... this is team s.a.r.s. (sunrise airsoft renegade squad): uncle is everyone's uncle on the team. he's our general for the north versus south game so we'll protect him with everything we've got. uncle is the unquestioned leader of the group. always ready to lend a gun or ammo. jude law a.k.a. maskiano. this guy's our gunsmith. he knows almost everything there is to know about airsoft guns. you want to upgrade or fix your gun? just drop him a line. by the way jude, would it be wise if i sell my thompson m1a1 then buy a famas f1? :D that red markings? lol.. i don't know how to us...

i'm a sucker for bullpup configuration. that explains why apart from the famas f1 , i also would like to own an army r85a1 airsoft gun. the army armament r85a1 is a clone of the g&g l85, the real steel counterpart of which is the enfield l85a1, a member of the sa80 family which originated from the united kingdom. i love europe's guns! what i like about the army r85a1 is that it has a blowback mechanism according to this review. also, i like the looks. there's something about bullpup firearms which just screams "cool". reportedly, this airsoft gun fires 0.20 g bbs at 350 fps. that might not sound much but to me, that's adequate enough. i mean you do not have to have a gun with a lot of power to enjoy the game. it is after all more thrilling to accept the challenge of stalking your opponent to get those "kills". i would like to take this time to point out that some players crave for guns with more power. sure, that would get you a lot of ...

airsoft is slowly becoming a popular sport in the philippines and other parts of the world. i guess it has to do with men's obsession with things that go boom! but not everyone can afford a gun or even use it regularly. so for us who love guns but cannot afford to buy a real steel, airsoft is the next best thing. it is not about just having a gun though. playing this game can teach you a lot in life like honesty and integrity. it will test your will and stamina too. it is also a thinking game as you have to plan your strategy and follow it to the letter if you want to eliminate all opponents. this and the camaraderie between airsoft players are what makes the sport so appealing to me. now why do i want a famas f1? i guess it has someting to do with my addiction to counterstrike 1.6. i just love the way the gun looks and i am a fan of the bullpup design. i dig the steyr aug and the tavor but i love the famas f1. unfortunately, i don't think it is avaialble yet in the ...

being sports-minded, i'm always open to try new sports as long as i can cram it into my busy schedule. so, after the green team was eliminated from our basketball tournament , i decided to give airsoft a go. egged on by my officemates jad , lenard , and john , i purchased my own AEG, a type of airsoft gun. i bought mine from sir sonny and i must say that i am truly impressed with the thompson m1a1 i got from him. so for all filipinos out there looking for a trusted seller of airsoft guns in the philippines, i would definitely recommend sir sonny. i have yet to take a good pic of my tommy gun so i'm gonna post more pictures of it here later on. for now, all i got is this: although a newbie or greenhorn or a rookie (or whatever they call newcomers to the sport), i have already participated in a large-scale game. it was the jungle blizzard in iriga city. i did not come prepared for the said game as i do not have vests or battle dress uniform for that matter. but i manage...
