morning all, thought I'd say hello to everyone as it seems the polite thing to do!
I'm pretty much new to ww2 airsoft but have been airsofting/marshalling for many years. Fed up with gear queers and wannabees (nevergonnabees) at many sites and forums and I'm into this for the fun!
been an avid tabletop wargamer of ww2 stuff for ages and a couple of my team mates have decided to go all 101st airborne on me so I got me a thompson to keep my 1911a1 company and now I'm undertaking the long and arduous process of getting my gear together!
this seems to be a great and friendly forum and I look forward to fighting with (and against) some of you at D day in nov.

Hello and welcome. I've been doing WW2 airsoft for a few months now, and I can concur that this is a really friendly group. Look forward to shooting you on D-Day! 8)

well, the jerries get all the best gear and if I could stand wearing the british woolen trousers (shudders at the memory of my old RAF trousers which I had to shave!) then I would have joined up as a tommy!
(when I play wargames, I'm always the germans- they get all the best tanks!
cheers guys,
stewart.

You can always wear denims as a brit, or get the windproof suit as its cotton and camo!
