I do Hapkido, Tae Kwon Do, and used to do Ju Jitsu.
Do you compete? Or do you just do poomse?

I do Poomse in Tae Kwon Do, and spar a lot in Hapkido. All the tournaments that I would go to are too close to, or after, my ship date. Never got a chance to do anything other than classes in Ju-Jitsu.

As for airsoft, our team does mil-sim games all over the country when we can. Its difficult, because its still only getting started in the US. But it is getting more popular.

Welcome. Too bad you didn't get some time to compete, you can learn what you need to work on when you spar in tournaments.

Non-lethal booby-traps

Post by ActiveDarwinism »

Rangers;

I was wondering if any of you could give me some advice on booby-traps for an upcoming 48-hour airsoft event that I am attending. I was unsure where to ask this question, so I am just posting it here. The difficulty is that there must be little, or no, pyro-technics or explosives involved, and they must be non-lethal. Doesn't really leave much open, but I was hoping you could give me an idea how to jimmy-rig a sort of "watch out, the fuckers are in the woods" get-up.

Also, any ideas or tips on how to best cammy up your weapon? I've tried OD 100MPH tape on parts, and done the 3D tape, and done the put on netting and brush thing, and I'm never wholly satisfied. Is it a flaw in my technique, and I'm just being picky about it? Or are there other effective ways to do this?

I had also heard a rumor that if you cover your skin in mud, and let it dry without wiping it off, the bugs will mostly leave you alone. Any thoughts/experiences?

Thank you very much for your time and help.

Roger that, I'll keep my fuckin mouth shut.

And by the way, no Rambo. That motherfucker never needed to cammy up, nor reload.

Thanks anyway.

And one block west of Atlantic & 4th is Pacific & 4th where you could taste the sumptous Gun-fu Hispanic style.

And further down 3/4's of a mile, Atlantic & Henry Sts you will be in Hadji territory.

Go to Hollywood Video or your local Blockbuster. Look in the childrens family secion for a movie called " swiss Family Robinson" Fastforward until the end when the pirates attack. The little kid makes one. Follow his highspeed design
