I am joining the Army Medical Corp. I am going to be a 68 Whiskey aKa Combat Medic. My main reason for really getting into Airsoft is for military preparation. Talking with recruiters, they all say Milsim is a very good trainer. I am still deciding on all my gear, I really want a full metal m4, but I am leaning toward a non metal due to funds. I hope you guys could help me get the correct gear to get closer to real weapons. I'll post the gear I am planning on getting in the gear section.
Thanks all!
Hooah!
Welcome! If you want a full metal be prepared to spend some dough. BUT it will be worth it! You are gonna face some flak for being 16 as all 18 and under players do but don't take it personally. If you want to get a good MILSIM experience hang out with the older teams.
A really good example of a good team even though not from here:

I know allot of recruiters now prefer people who do MILSIM. One recruiter asked me about that two years ago. I told him I do particpate in MILSIM. Then he asked me if I was available to go to office to take the practice ASVAB.
I can see a conspiracy forming

Pretty soon you will have to be an airsofter in order to join the military and when/if the draft comes back then we will be first picked but they will say that it was "random".
EVERYONE! quick run to Canada and UK! We'll start from scratch there and destroy them next.

Yes. Internet=porn. It's a fact of life that most of us have come to accept happily.
