    So I might have gotten into Airsoft before my paycheck has arrived… Sorry wallet, you’ll feel better in a few days time.

        It’s not an expensive hobby to get into, I did my first game in about 10 years, enjoyed it so much that I got hyperfixated and went all in because I know I love this hobby.

        £110 for Airsoft rifle

        £180 on starter clothing (undershirt, shirt, trousers, imitation plate carrier, ammo pouches, pistol holster, gloves, mesh eye mask, and large bag to shove it all in)

        £40 spent so far on BBs

        £40 for first site session (outdoor woodland)

        £20 for second site session (indoor CQB)

        £40 for third site session (outdoor abandoned base)

        £50 on a piccatiny rail mounted torch with pressure pad

        Petrol costs travelling to sites, food, drink not included, I’ve so far spent £480.

        Having said that, I have nothing else to buy right now so that’ll last me a good while.

        Whilst I’m not in the shit financially from this spending spree, DON’T DO WHAT I DID, that was a bit reckless of me.

          Come on man, if you tell us not to the the same, then at least share a picture of the rifle so I don’t have to buy it to look at it
