The only thing I can recall about any sort of training methods on Tactical to Practical were Simunitions, but then again, new episodes, new training methods, etc.

I saw the piece with the Airsoft stuff.  It was okay.  Nothing to write home about, other than the fact it was Airsoft on TV.  He spent more time with the Paintballers.

Yeah screws got it.  He spent a litle time with the Airsoft Team and talked a little about the guns kinda.  But he ended up playing with the paintball team.  Kinda cool to see airsoft on T.V but its not all that special.  Its still worth watching it has some cool stuff in that episode.

Tech TV's X-Play had a segment about airsoft a while back.  It was alright.

The T to P episode featured members of BAASH (Bay Area Airsoft Hobbyists) out of the San Fran area.  They represented it well, and displayed the more MilSim side to our hobby as it should be.

I was pleasantly surprised!

Alright for those of you that want to see this episode again it will be on tuesday night(march 9th) on the history channel.  Check your tv guides for times.  The episode title is "war games".  Mostly about computer games that end up going to the miltary or vice versa.

I saw the commercial for the episode while watching Mail Call earlier [:P] I guess I didn't even need you guys to answer my question [;)]

I've actually seen two airsoft segments on X-Play. One was a premier event for Raven Shield (they had modeled a level after a building in LA, and held an event there) and one was an outdoors event (I think it was BAASH, but I can't remember.) Anyway, I set the episode of Tactical to Practical to record on TiVo, so I'm good to go.

Tactical to Practical Airsoft Episode?
« Reply #13 on: March 07, 2004, 03:52:52 PM »
I'm not much of a fan of Tactical to Practical (Go Mail Call [:P]!) but I heard about an episode that had a 10 minute feature about airsoft on the ASP boards. Has anybody seen it? I've tried to find the re-run, but I don't know what else is in the episode so I can't tell which one to record (I don't think "airsoft" is in the description.) Can anybody help me out?
