You know you're into WW2 Airsoft when...

43,when its good to see your not the only one,

Amen Brother!

44. when you see buying things like cars, kitchens, holidays etc not in terms of money, but in terms of how may guns, uniforms, helmets etc you could have got instead....

And I thought I was the only one...

45. When you look back at all of the "Commando","Battle" , "Victor", and "Warlord" comics you bought as a Kid ( am i showing my age??) and realise it was subconcious military training for your later life. Hande Hoch ENGLANDER!!!

Ah yes, this was a good thread, let's keep it going

46. When you walk into a WW2 museum and go: "Got it, Got it, Want it, Got it, What's this doing here? That's post-war!"

47. When you feel bad about lying to your better half when saying "Yes dear, this is the last bit of kit I'll buy."

47. When you feel bad about lying to your better half when saying "Yes dear, this is the last bit of kit I'll buy."

? Will she stop getting shoes/ dresses/ coats/ other inane useless items she will wear once? I dont think so, so why should you stop getting lots of nice kit?

48. When you lie to yourself and say, "This is the last bit of kit I'm going to buy"!

Ah yes havnt we all done that. I only need XXX and I will have everything I want. Ever.....

2 hours later.

Oh hello, thats rather nice, and only

I'm guessing from that comment you aren't married Gliderrider - that isn't how it works at all! (Two very nice ladies on this forum excepted, that is )

Are you suggesting that their may be a reason I aint married yet?

Ah, I was right then! Logical arguement rarely works with the better half.
*digs deeper hole, expects flak from Anne & Helga *

Yeah, keep digging, you might hit China soon.

And no, I'm not married either.....not for lack of trying

yes jeks, i agree, i was a warlord reader

as for marrige, dont do it,
its nearly always a arguement , if i even talk airsoft, let alone buy anything

my whole german loadout , gun ,uniform the lot, was "GIVEN" to me by a friend, ( at least thats what the wife thinks,)

and all of my stuff arrives through work, (so she never knows where its come from)

Tough luck Anthony!
Truth be told my wife doesn't mind at all (OK, I get a tut from time to time - it's my daughter that gives me grief 'Another gun? What do you need another one for?").
I suppose it gets me out of the house and keeps me jolly so she wins that way . Plus it really helps having a son who plays - call it bonding & quality family time if you like!

how old is your son chommers?

this is my excuse too.......

You played with James at Caen, he's 18. I nearly got my 16 year old daughter to a game once, she keeps chickening out though!
