I couldn't take it anymore when they started reading descriptions off Hobbytron... “full scale,” “life-like,” “true to weight” MY ASS

I dunno seemed pretty fair to me. If the parent is clueless about airsoft and or guns in general they need to educate themselves. I didn't see any major WTF's in the article.

The only thing I see wrong with the article (besides some of the bad grammer) is that the views of the reporter are very biased and un-educated.

This is one of thoes articles that could cause a stir about airsoft guns being dangerous. If only we could convince them to print an article about educationg people about the sport rather than pointing out the bad aspects of the sport. (mainly bad parenting of minors that want to play)

This could very well end up a "gun control" issue. It's like banning guns because some dip-shit uses one to rob a store and shoot the clerk. They always blame the gun, not the individual.

No I was just throwing it out there that they were calling the guns on Hobbytron realistic, take a look at some of their inventory it'll make you laugh.


But I agree with you Auto, it was sorta biased, it'd be nice if some reported came and interviewed a minor who was all the way into Airsoft to get the postivies of it (cough cough me)
