Anyone into airsoft ?

I am thinking of getting into airsoft.
I used to do archery but after my motorcycle accident I stopped doing it.
Hopefully I can do it before they make it illegal in the uk.

I've always been interested in it, but have never played as it's illegal in my province of Canada, we have paintball but airsoft is a no-go.

I have never had luck with sights on paintball guns. It has been almost a year since I went. They closed the place that I used to go to because some punk shot a jogger.

it is, lol, if its in wooded area gen2 is a must, if its open terain then gen1+ will work. oh and get the double tube systems if ya going to be running, for the single tubes and monoculars have no real depth perception and u will runinto something and black ur eye lol, and for yr sights use a varable power red dot sight, for the focus will be off and u wont be able to see iron sights
