59 year old newby
 
Hello group.

59 year old newby here. yes 59. I like the airsoft for their workmanship. I'm not a gamer. I'm in the Vancouver area and I'm having trouble tracking down an age verifier allthough at 59 years old I find it a bit silly but rules are rules. Can anyone direct me to an age verifier out here in Vancouver? The ones on the list don't answer email inquiries.

Looking forward to getting age verified.

Thank you

Dan

Welcome! It seems silly perhaps but unlike at the liquor store the admins here can't just look at you and tell. You say you are 59 but what if you are actually 12, or a dog, or both? Of course 12 would be an old dog, and then we couldn't teach you new tricks. I don't know where I was going with this. So again, welcome!

(And regardless of the liquor reference I've not been drinking.)

None that I see for the moment but I have seen them here for sale time to time.
But once you get AVed Im sure some one here can track one down for you.

You can get AV'ed at Airsoft Gear Canada

Welcome.

As they are specialty, fairly rare items - the price is fairly high and it may make more sense to go the domestic retail route (do NOT try to import one of these, it likely will be seized by Customs).

There is at least one advertising retailer that does have a king-arms poly-stock black version listed on their site.

As you said - rules are rules. I'm 45 and physically disabled (relatively speaking) - but for purposes of acquiring these realistic non-restricted firearms for display purposes, or actually gaming them - it's all a lot of fun - if expensive. I'd suggest giving gaming a try at least a time or two - it's definitely a lot of fun.

Good luck to you.

Thanks everyone.

I look forward to hearing from someone out here that can age verify me.

Just a thought. What about using Skype to get age verified?

Would be hard for a 12 year old to look 59. :)

Speaking of 12 year old. Wouldn't that be nice at 59 to go back and start over? Exept for the school part that is.

Thank you

Dan

RaisinBran March 21st, 2013 04:10

What's wrong with the school part? Young girls, young girls everywhere.

Rusty Lugnuts March 21st, 2013 05:29

There's a guy on here ASC name Antique who's 60 ( I know I verified him) and he plays a lot. He sneaks through the bush like a friggin ghost and scares the crap out of you when he mercies you. So your never to old for this sport, Come on out to a game and teach those kids that old age and trickery can go toe to toe with youth and skill!

Spike March 21st, 2013 08:20

My father plays... he's 61 ;)

It's been tried and yes, the rules have been put in place for a reason. ID cannot be authenticated over the internet. regardless if you may look old enough, once the admins allow breaking the rules for one person, where does it stop?

are none of the BC verifiers getting back to you? http://airsoftcanada.com/showthread.php?t=74996


edit:
Last I heard White_knight is fairly active and he verifies The Vancouver/Burnaby area http://www.airsoftcanada.com/member.php?u=13397

Thank you. I will be around casually watering the plants and tending to the new ones as time permits.

It's true he once spent a week as a used tampon collector behind the Saskatoon police services building.

I made good profit selling all those tampons to wanna be goth kids and twilight fans as "vampire tea bags".

Only if we make eye contact.

You guys suck! It was one of the long running gags that T7 was a chick. And noone corrected newbs. Way to ruin it.

Basic-Wedge April 2nd, 2013 00:34

Boourns!

Then he starts charging you in 15mins intervals @ $40/15mins, it's intercourse to her at that point. Oh and btw there's no pre warning and the billing doesn't stop till you you say the safe word which it randomly picks from any words you recently spoke prior to making eye contact. Don't pay and he sends her lawyer after you who happens to work for the Saskatoon mob so you really want to pay it off.

The funny thing about that is there are many people out there that have met a
"tokyoeven" at a game that was female and there are plenty of people out there who have met a "tokyoseven" out there that was male. That being said I can think of at least 5 different instances where the person was never the same.

Yes. I send decoys to keep the people confused about us...I mean me. No there are not two of us. Anyone else who says different is a liar.

You make the life of a professional escort/companion sound much more exciting than it actually is. Pfff my solicitor is totally legitimated and usually things never come to that.

Thanks
 
Hello group
