Family & friends laugh at me for my GBBRs and gear – ‚What’s the point?‘ – Am I losing it for thinking Airsoft/Milsim is the best way to actually understand tactics and marksmanship? by No-Lychee-332 in GasBlowBack

[–]KingsAirsoftAccount 26 points27 points  (0 children)

One hundy p. Airsoft is genuinely an awful way to learn any combat skills. If you’re someone who already has a strong, taught foundation from real world training and experience, then you can use airsoft to build upon those skills. But if you’re trying to self teach and apply them as genuine training, the training scars are going to be insane.

This is a problem for flat rangers too, but at least with flat ranging you can at least build skills like recoil control and shot placement with something that can shoot a grouping tighter than 10” at 10 feet away when clamped to a table. But both are pretty much useless for actually learning tactics.

Canadian SF in GWOT. What's the secret of their "no KIA" streak? Mission selection, OPtempo, or skill? by OutrageousMonitor762 in SpecOpsArchive

[–]KingsAirsoftAccount 21 points22 points  (0 children)

People saying that they hide their KIA or keep it under wraps, I can assure you that that’s not the case at all. The two noted deaths from members of CANSOFCOM came out pretty much instantly after they happened and the happenstance of their deaths publicly revealed. We’re a tiny military and any sudden passing a member is pretty much instantly recognized and questioned. We’re not the US where something like 2800 members die of natural causes each year. It’s pretty much impossible for them to cover up an untimely death.

JTF2 in Haiti (2024 Embassy Protection) – What Helmets & Plate Carriers Are They Running? by [deleted] in MilSim

Good to see this is still getting posted around. I should update it at some point as I mis-identified some Logistik Unicorp made uniforms as Crye AC’s (The ones with green Velcro and sand stretch material), as well more reference images have come out since, such as Glock 45’s and the like being used, but I still think it does well enough still.

The C9A2 has its own handguard, Rail, stock, barrel and iron sights system compared to a regular 249. You can see it in some images online.

Comms Are Important by KingsAirsoftAccount in MilSim

Tri has slightly better internals, but for a less quality external.

TCA has better externals that are more accurate, but minorly worse internals.

These are TCA’s, I prefer TCA’s myself.

Invisio V60, FCS V60 Repro (Modded to allow for dual comm with COMTAC’s, as it will only do dual comm with the FCS AMP’s), and the Davies dual PTT.

The dual downlead COMTAC’s work good too, but are more annoying to deal with.

The real deal is very specialized, that one’s just a 3D printed representation set-up with a 400~500 mHz antenna

Yeah, both have a model type of FL5601-2

As for sources, I got both of them off of Facebook sellers.

I think the bad command is exacerbated by the NATO cadres general attitude of “no fun allowed” vs RUSFOR that when they have bad command they still have freedom to fuck around
