i was lookin at getting a tokyo mauri m4 with the green furniture and the elcan(haveing trouble finding that one) and the problem is the only places i have found in halifax that sells airsoft are crappy tire and wally world all i have found is paintball paintball paintball no shops for airsoft plus halifax requires clear guns only i think im not sure on that im gonna ask my moms frnd whos rcmp anybody know of shops in halifax that sell airsoft stuff?

i'm 16, and i'm in the army

It does suck im turning 17 and still doing grade 9 math and english failed it 3 times

So you are 16 years old and you are trying to find a shop that will sell you a TM M4A1? I am PRETTY sure you will NOT find a store that will sell airsofts to minors...

It can be done, although it involves parental involvement beyond just using their credit card. Find a game and attend with your parents, inform the organiser in advance, and you'll get the low down. Look around for more information on these forums.

yeah i no that was a mistake on my old cadet officer telling me i had to be 17 to serve and i had to get parents permission

You'll have to pre-order (none currently in stock) but he's fast.

If hadn't of needed to sell my M4, I would have been buying one of those.

he was right. Regular forces is 17 with parental permission, 18 or older without.

Reserves : 16 with parental permission, 17 or older without.

yeah i think my supply officer was talking reg force also does anyone know if we still use thermold mags?

As far as I know, those were replaced awhile ago.. they didnt exactly work well.

to bad he cant play with the only large group of maritimers until he is 18

yeah oh well im approaching 17 in a bit so that will giove me time to get all my kit plus my team leader lives out west where im moving to and hes got his own field he made its not a legal field people can play at of course just a couple bunkers and stuff on the edge of his farm

This has to be the worst bit of mis-information floating around. We do not use the thermold magazines.

Originally intended as a "battlefield fire-and-forget" or "disposable" magazine, they were initially used as a reloadable magazine and promptly failed to live up to the task. We use regular STANAG M16 metal magazines.

You still may find a few thermolds in the bottom of a storage locker in some unit's QM, but they are not a common sight anymore.

I found one in a box of old hard drives last week. They truly sucked as a magazine. The lips broke off the tops of the mags in pretty much any temperature below freezing, causing all the rounds to try to fit into the breech at once.
Even when we were using them, we'd pick up metal mags whenever we were at US bases since they just leave them lying on the ranges after a day of shooting. You'll do fine with a Canadian loadout using pretty much any regular mags out there. Even the Star locaps look fine after you paint them.

thanks for that so just any regular m16 magazine will work ok umm does anyone no some of the weapons used by jtf-2 because my team is supposed to be a cross between regular infantry and special ops
