How I learned to stop worrying and love Thunder B’s!

May 14, 2013

I’ve been playing airsoft for a long time and, when I got started, one of my biggest complaints was that if paintball’ers could have grenades why can’t airsoft’ers have something similar as well?! Now if I remember correctly, the Tippman paintball grenades that I used to use cost $7 when I still played paintball, and that’s a one-time use grenade! Nowadays, these same Tippman grenades go for around $15!!!

So to be clear, you had to be very sure you were gonna get a kill with a paint grenade or at the very least scare the bejeezus out of somebody, otherwise you were out $7 with no actual effect…and that’s embarrassing.

Over time, grenades were developed for airsoft but just about every product put out to market had varying degrees of success until two very important products came out which, in my humble opinion changed the game…

Desert Fox – Task Enforcement Training Facility

February 14, 2012

On February 9^th, 2012, I had a chance to check out the new Desert Fox CQB field located in Gardena, California. Task Enforcement Training Facility is an indoor facility specifically designed for law enforcement personnel, SWAT operators, VIP protections, etc, to provide them with real world environment setting for training.

At Task Enforcement Training Facility, there are 12,000 square feet of training ground for law enforcement agencies and airsofters to train/use. There are different rooms which simulate different settings. There are rooms that simulate a classroom, a restaurant, an office, a living room, a bedroom, etc, and they are connected with hallways and corridors. There are also catwalks above all the rooms for instructors to critique trainees. For airsoft, the catwalks provide a cool and unique perspective on the game.
