I haven’t gone paintballing in over a decade but did it a few times as a teenager at birthdays and it was really fun. Thought it might be a good time to go again for my upcoming birthday. However, airsoft has also become a big thing over the past few decades so maybe that would be more fun instead. Thoughts, experiences, opinions?
I might be wrong but isn’t airsoft cheaper?
As to which is more environmentally friendly though I’d assume paintball because of biodegradation. Maybe the pellets are biodegradable too now though.
Airsoft bbs are also biodegradable (very slowly).
And yeah airsoft guns and the essentials (battery pack, charger, mask) are pretty affordable as an adult, and the bbs are very cheap, but don’t you also wanna wear sick camo and a chest rig with extra mags and a radio and maybe some grenades and shit? And maybe you want a gas pistol as a sidearm, so you need mags and gas for that too. And that sniper on the other team had a really cool ghillie suit, maybe you should try that some time…not to mention camping gear, since this is gonna be a weekend-long game.
Airsoft is much cheaper for the basics, but it’s so easy to get larpy with it.
Fuck, that sounds fun. I wish there was even a remote chance anyone else who does it around the area isn’t the worst. I just wanna play Rambo
Yes it is. In paintball you’ll probably waste half of your ammo just trying to load your gun lol
