New to Pro airsofting, but vet of paintball

Postby Lukens » Sun Mar 04, 2012 9:22 pm

Just recently bought a mid level AEG, and decided to get into the sport, since its less expensive then paintballing. and with AP, theres a lot more events for airsoft then paintballing.

Went out to an event yesterday, had a great time with callsigns: jew, Ogre, Ivan(his real name) And the Spec Det team, among others. My personal callsign is just Lukens.

I live in Newberg, and run my own computer shop. While I might not be able to fix my own gun, I can certainly fix any computer you give me. If you need any computer work, hit me up, and ill see what i can do.

I hope to participate in many of the events to come, and also to get to know this community.

See ya at the next game.

Isn't mil-sim kind of the "pro" version of airsoft?

I get paid in good times and experience to airsoft. That makes me a pro.

AP is full of pros.

Welcome to the pro leagues, Lukens!


Thanks Big Red! And i believe your statement is true. we are paid in a way, and we certainly invest a lot of time and money into this sport. I know i certainly will. Now instead of making the decision of whether to eat or buy that new computer part, its going to be either eating or a new gearbox...lol

Thanks for the compliment. I always enjoy leading a team, and it fits my future career in the Nat. Guard. You guys were really responsive and worked great with me! Next time I hope we can learn some more tactics and implement them in the upcoming games.

Good day sir.

Don't be like other pro paintballers who come to airsoft because they're tired of wiping paint. ;-)
