Airsoft 101: Who's Your Teammates?

When I first started playing airsoft, I was overwhelmed with the fun and exciting experience of running around in an indoor CQB arena. After running around for a while, I lost sight of who my teammates were. Sure, one team was wearing orange bands behind their heads. But who can keep track when everyone was running around in an enclosed quarter. By the time you circled behind to see if that person was wearing bands, you were shot.

It's probably not so hard in a MilSim situation where everyone is wearing similar uniforms. But in an open public game where anything goes, team usually consists of friends wearing various outfits. As people come and go in a open game, the teams are switched with no reserves to who wears what.

After a while, I realized that the best way to keep track of your team mates is to study them before the round starts. Observe whether your teammates are wearing the same color or different color. Is there a unique designator or patch on their outfit? If so, remember it. Once you've studied your teammates' outfits, looking for unique traits on the enemies' outfit. When you see one of these unique traits on the enemies during the game, you can quickly and safely open fire on them.

Title: Airsoft 101: Are You Really Hitting Your Enemy?
Weblog: GearHack
Excerpt: Originally, I was going to title this article as "Airsoft 101: Keeping Your Gun Vertical". But my guess was that title has less impact than the problem at hand. Anyway, if you had ever thought that your enemy was cheating, then you should give this article a good read. Perhaps they weren't cheating . . .
