Hey guys, I'm Adam, usually go by Saint.
I just moved to Kent from Connecticut and I'm hoping to cross paths with you guys as I settle in. It was great going to the NYE shoot to start introductions.
If any of you nerds are into airsoft, I've been doing that for like eight years now, which can be good fun and an excuse for even more gear... It's training sorta? ..right?
Either way, happy to get to know everyone and hopefully I can get in with the geardo night vision nerds crew soon enough.

Heck yes! Good airsoft gear is great for training. Plus you can do squad or multiple team drills.

Adam,
Go over to AR15.com in the WA Hometown forum and keep tabs on an announcement for a Night shoot sometime around end of May - early June. I meet up with a group of WA Arfcommers every summer in the north Cascades to do night shooting with NODs. It's a bunch of fun and the place we shoot at is secluded and large enough to accomodate a sizable group. It's an old quarry pit and the back stop is a mountain about 168 yds from where we set up the shooting line.
Tim
