Actual bootcamp footage.


(No Steeds were harmed in the tactical training)

As a younger man i was a big fan of paintball and remember the days of pump pistols and 10 ball tubes. There's some seriously fancy gear out now a days.

Before you go mad on paintball gear, take a look at airsoft. It's a lot more tactical and the gear is way cooler.

I nearly bought a P90 for a laugh (I don't do airsoft but I love the design of those guns) but then I read up on the restrictions on buying them in the UK, registering with a club etc. etc.

True enough, so join a club, you wouldn't want a P90 and not shoot someone with it would you?

I think some shops include a membership if they also have an airsoft site. I don't know any down Somerset way though, Ground Zero near Prtsmouth may be your best bet.
