Overkill on airsoft game.

Rob101 · October 17th, 2012, 10:54

I havent tried yet but i attached my sling to my vest so i can carry my m4 on my back and still rock my saw. My friend had his m4 and L96 plus a pistol before during one of the games we attended. Also Killermug had his kar 98 G36 1911 and he humped it all threw the bush up a hill to boot he was really weighed down because of so much excess equipment.

I've done p90 and m14 slung on my back to enter the field... and then quickly dump the m14 at the FOB so I could have a backup if the p90 went down. As for dual wielding 2 guns that would otherwise be 2 primaries... I have not.

real life shooting is not COD. Try aiming 2 rifles or even smgs at either the same target or separate targets and hit them at more than a distance of 50 feet. It's harder than it sounds, takes a special kind of person since you're sighting different things with each eye, and your shooting position is not as stable so your accuracy will suffer. This is the stuff you see in movies and video games that has very little practical application in airsoft.

Another great COD/movie thing is shooting on the run. Try that and see how that works for you at a dead sprint, even a jog.

Unless you want to look like a goof. Then by all means, be a free kill, but at least have fun doing it.

I've run my saw and slung my cqb M4 on my back. It was slow but it was a lot of fun to drop my saw here and there and do big cqb pushes with my ptw. I don't think I would ever do it again though. CA m249, ptw, 12 ptw mags (30rnds) 1911+ 5 mags was overkill but hey ya gotta mix it up every now and again to keep the sport interesting

Most people can't run 1 gun properly.. let alone 2

generally what you get is 2 x as much missing.

Carrying 2 guns .. but using one at a time.. may make sense

lots of people who run a sniper setup, carry a compact PDW as well for self defense.

Ive ran M249 and XCR at the same time..
XCR was just slinged on the side, didnt really give me any issues.

Was very useful as M249 was not allowed to be used indoors. And eventually M249 went down so I switched to XCR completely. Because of the situation, I didnt go back to respawn for 1 hour or so, so running with M249 on the sling on the side (with a backpack) was a pain..

I used to run a mp5k with my bolt action and that is as far as I am willing to push the concept. Anything else is just a waist of space on my rig.

MB1, why are you asking? What are you planning/thinking of doing? Chances are somebody's on here has tried and have found if it works, if it's bloody fun, or if the idea should of stayed on the drawing board.

I think we can all agree that it never hurts to have a backup or two, or twenty depending on the situation.

I don't believe the OP was talking about a back up.. I believe he was talking about using 2 rifles or guns at the same time

I asked because i'll probably run with m4a1 and L96... Since i dont like my pistol (weak and cheap lol). And sniper with 450fps ONLY allowed at 100ft. So instead of using pistol. Why not use m4 for a closed range which is sniper are unavailable to shoot (less than 100ft).

My point is, i got mid range to long range instead of long and short range.
Does make sense? :P
