Personally I have never been in any "real" situations with live fire coming at me, however I have shot many firearms. What I'm saying is using the combination of skill, strategy, and marksman is used in a "real" battle (i would assume, would you not?). So airsofting uses the same techniques to win a match correct? Basically I'm just saying airsofting is better than paintballing because of life-like replica guns and an overall combat situation. Anyways thanks for the welcome guys. But no doc hollywood, video games are a waste of time, sorry to disappoint you.
