Operation Viper Strike hosted by RAPTAC - ONE GRUNTS OPINION Photos and AAR on Facebook

Operation Viper Strike hosted by RAPTAC - ONE GRUNTS OPINION Photos and AAR on Facebook | Thumpy's 3D House of Airsoft™ @ Scoop.it | Scoop.it

"“…RAPTAC is a constant psychological and physical assault that dares you to quit because it’s just easier then hanging in the fight. In this way it will never be for everyone. You have to will yourself to the experience in a way that you can not just be the customer looking to be entertained. You have to be an immersed active part of the experience and an actor in the role you accept at sign up….”

Thumpy Covey's insight:

MAJOR SALUTE to our buddy Javier over at ONE GRUNTS OPINION (OGO) on Facebook, for his incredible coverage of the RAPTAC Viper Strike event in Western NC….the AAR and Photos are pro-level good…makes sense and give you a feel for “what it was like.”  Must-read material as the state-of-the-game shifts to immersive MilSim in 2015….CLICK THE PICS to see it all!

TOO MUCH DRAMA...not enough GAME? - One Grunts Opinion on Facebook

TOO MUCH DRAMA...not enough GAME? - One Grunts Opinion on Facebook | Thumpy's 3D House of Airsoft™ @ Scoop.it | Scoop.it

"A new opinion for reading on the pooper. Hahahaha

Is it all Drama in Airsoft???


Airsoft in a big way is no longer just a game, mainly because of the culture that now exists around it. To the young boy or girl jumping into airsoft, the hobby won't stay just a game once he/she gets into the social media part of the sport or start doing larger national events. The connectivity of social media takes folks from their corner of the world and lets them see right into the larger com...

Ask SSD - Why Is This Thing So Darned Expensive? - Soldier Systems Daily | Thumpy's 3D House of Airsoft™ @ Scoop.it | Scoop.it

"Every once in awhile we get an email that asks a question so universal that it needs to be answered on the site in the form of “Ask SSD.” Since the subject of this “Ask SSD” comes up over and over again in the comments section, we thought we’d address it here as a stand alone article...."

Thumpy Covey's insight:

GREAT article...what did you expect?...from Big E at SSD.  While this partly explains the costs/pricing/$$ to $$$$$ you see for some of the high-speed, low-drag gear you might want for a MilSim loadout, it does not compute to those purely-Airsoft related guns or goodies sold right along side them on used-gear forums or pages.  Guys, the market for these items may have a set INITIAL price, but once it "leaves the showroom floor" the only price is the one that the market will bear.   We agree a lot with ONE GRUNTS OPINION on pricing for used guns....you only PAY what you think the item is worth TO YOU.  Keep your hands....and your hard-earned cash...in your pockets until you see the sticker-price you want to pay.  There will usually be another item just like it, or that EXACT SAME ITEM back on the market once the novelty and the "need" wear off!

"Evolve or go extinct?


With the rise of more realistic and immersive milsim events being offered today, is it inevitable that old school milsim producers will go extinct unless they evolve? The answer is not a simple answer, depending on whom one speaks with and their opinion on…”

"Fat guys in airsoft/milsim"

Here's a controversial topic to wrap your brain around. Social evolution, the media, and your doctor all say it's bad to be fat. Today in society, you have a fight being lead to change the negative image of what it means to be fat in society. I'm not here to tell you to embrace the curves and see the beauty, I won't bore you with that crap. ...
