Airsoft Force-on-Force groups?

coprtoppe · May 11, 2008

Are there any groups out there doing force-on-force drills with airsoft?

I know The Polite Society has in the past, but it doesn't seem like they do it regularly.

I would like to join such a group. I don't have the experience to start one of my own.

Thanks,
Tony

There are airsoft teams in the area. See http://www.utahairsoft.org/ for an example. Are you looking for teams or drills?

I will check these guys out, thanks.

Definately drills - as in self defense training.
Not interested in sports, although I could see some crossover skills.

We are planning some more FOF drills and tactical scenarios this Summer. If you like, I could ad you to the email list.

Thanks, I'm already on the mailing list and have been following the blog.
I'm planning to be up at the carbine class next week too.

What is the difference between the little guns the kids play with and the FOF guns? They look pretty big and bulky, so what up with them?

I don't know much about them actually. The airsoft Glock I bought is made to use the same holsters, and is nearly indistinguishable from the real thing except for the orange tip.

Thanks.

I stopped by Weapon Blender today in Orem and talked to one of the guys that are in charge of Utah County Airsoft (UCA) and seemed pretty interesting. I might goto their next match. Probably a little cheaper then going to the range every other week. Guns cost a fifth of what a normal gun does too. *shrugs* But then again I need more guns that go BOOM!

I am very much a part of the Utah Airsoft scene. We have games every Saturday (9:30 am - about 3-5pm), I usually attend about every other week. If anyone would like to go out and give it a try, I have an extra gun you can use (a 1 to 1 replica of a G36c). It is battery-powered and select fire -- this is no Wal-Mart gun!

Let me know if you would like to come out and we could arrange something!

I have noticed that my instinctive shooting ability (read: point-shooting) comes directly from playing airsoft.
