Hey Everyone, Name's Justin and I wanted to introduce myself to the community. I'm 27 and live in Ann Arbor. My friend recently turned me onto airsoft and I'm looking to learn some and find some fields and people to play with. Tons of great info here guys, been lurking for about a week and reading a lot of awesome threads that have been a huge help. While completely new to airsoft, I've been shooting real steel pistols and rifles for about 15 years and used to play paintball through high school and college. Paintball was mostly small games around my friends back yard which was about 5 acres of woods, gotta love northern Michigan Anyway, the milsim type games are something I would love to get into. While the paintball matches were small we always played something like a 3 on 3 squad based match which was something I always loved. Hopefully I'll get to meet some of you at an event and not make myself look like a total n00b . Happy hunting everyone!

Yeah I've definitely been checking them out in the event section as thats seriously like 15 mins from my place. Unfortunately I probably won't join in right away as I don't have a gun currently but I'll definitely be stopping by to check it out next time theres an event there. Also thanks for the welcome Ozone.

Welcome to the boards, deadeye. There's a pretty strong player base in the Ann Arbor/suburban Detroit area. That field in Ypsi is probably your best bet right now, but there are other games in the area for sure. If there's anything we can do to help you get your feet wet, just let us know and we'll be happy to help.

Thanks for the warm welcome knief. Yeah fromeverything I'm seeing it seems like the SE MI group of airsofters are a good group of people. Thanks for offering to help if needed. I think I'm good for now and have a ton more on here to read but im sure I'll have a ton of questions once i get to an event.

Tell him to take a walk through the swamp at Ypsi . Then his feet will be wet. Or try to jump over the creek at Bangor. Not my greatest moment.. Edit. Yeah forgot to say welcome to the boards! I'm from saline but now I live in dexter, my old crew is going to do a GTG at Ypsi at the beginning of next month we should get all the locals out to this one.
