Hi Y'all,

i have been doing German WW2 re-enacting for about 7 years & have been looking to do airsoft for a while...

Most of the other re-enactors i know dont appear to be interested in this, but personally i am tired of shouting 'Oi you by the tree - you're dead' when i let lose a mag of blanks at someone....I'd much rather shoot people properly....!

Anyway i can do Heer, Luftwaffe or SS have all the kit (and some to spare) and am really looking forward to giving this a go.

So please feel free to drop me a line and let me know whats going on 7 where theaction is!

Cheers, Seidler

Glad you have dropped by Seidler. You are right, many reenactors don't appear to be interested - weird that when stuff is mentioned about what we get up to on reenactors forums our traffic shoots up! It's not for purists, that's for sure - kit quality and level of accuracy is up to the individual, not dictated by the group.

But it is different, and it is fun - get into the spirit and you will have a blast!

Next game is at Matlock, Derbyshire 30th March run by PBI - Heer would be perfect viewforum.php?f=56
Weekender game run by Gunman in South Wales 19 + 20 April - Heer, SS or Lufty (CiA team are heading up the Axis side) viewtopic.php?f=51&t=2666
CiA weekender in Shropshire 10 + 11th May - SS would be good viewforum.php?f=74

Welcome! We've had a distinct lack of German players lately, everyone seems to be allies!




When I want your opinion - I'll tell you what it is!

It's not far from Oxford/Brackley/Silverstone. I forget the exact location (which is pretty bad considering I sort of founded the bloody place!).




When I want your opinion - I'll tell you what it is!
