Not really. I was at gators the other day and there was next to no woodies left in regular human sizes. Just super fat and super small. I was able to get a set for jester, but it ran 30 darus! :O


That being said, I predict "extreme makeovers" levels of effort on Tim and everyone else's part to make 750 a functional human being. Let alone a competent airsofter.


It would be quite a feat indeed.

@750, Pro_X - You can come to our training in whatever uniform you have. If you want to become a member in the future, then you'd need to get some Woodland.
@Octose, Collin - We'll be announcing our first training shortly, I'll see you there.

In regards to the uniform question, US Woodland is cheap and plentiful. We aren't saying you have to have it on the first training you come to. If you choose to join up down the road though, you'd need to shell out the ~$20 for the uniform.

I'm already committed to PLA, but I really love the idea you guys have with this. I'll try to make it out to a few of these to help out in any way possible, potentially as OPFOR?

This looks like a great idea.
I would encourage any new player to give this a try.

Did you get him super fat or super small? Seriously though I think this is a great idea as they would learn the right way the first time rather than the hard way on the field.

I might be up for this if my schedule allows me. I am really getting into airsoft and I want to understand more tactics on the field. I also want more of my friends to pick up airsoft but it's really expensive. My question is where is the location and are there any fees?

The location for the first training is TBA, I'm still ironing that out.
It will most likely be free.

This sounds just like what I need, depending on location I will try to attend.

If anything I've seen on this site is any indicator then 750 is a lost cause. Stranger things have happened, though...

I'm always up for training/education to make one a better airsofter & you have my support. I'll keep an eye out for when you guys are doing stuff in the future.
