Rollin' Out Again: A Return To (Airsoft) Arms!
Airsoft Action|June 2021
Whilst the c-virus is still very much with us and we must continue to ensure that any airsoft games or events that we attend are fully compliant with national guidelines, the fact is that after many, many months of waiting, games are back on! Bill feeds back from the reports he’s heard on what’s happening in the UK and beyond as airsoft comes back to life…
Rollin' Out Again: A Return To (Airsoft) Arms!

Finally… FINALLY… (for some of us) after what feels like an interminable wait, the lights are turning back on slowly but surely around the globe and those are the lights in all those empty airsoft safe zones that we’ve missed so much!

C-19 has ravaged - and in some places is sadly still ravaging - the globe but there are finally signs that although the beast has yet to be fully tamed, battles are being won and freedoms so long restricted are being regained, even though the “new normal” is far, far removed as yet from the “old normal”. In the UK -and in some other countries - airsoft games have restarted and we hope that this will be the same for all of our “6mm brothers and sisters” around the world soon!

But is “Airsoft 2021” different from airsoft of just a couple of years ago? In some ways no, airsoft is still the same game that we all love and enjoy, with the same people, at the same places, with the same energy and enthusiasm as always, but just as the “new normal is the same as the old normal but with masks on”, it would appear that some things have indeed changed in some respects.

Airsoft, in reality, is a “young game” and although there are many of us in our 50’s (and indeed beyond!) that still get out to shoot and play regularly, we have to face the fact that the average age on-site is usually at least half that and that thankfully new, young players keep flooding into airsoft! This seems especially true “post-covid” as obviously there are many that have been stuck, bored out of their tinies, at home with just their internet connection as a friend!
