Tehachapi Airsoft was created for airsofters who live in or near Tehachapi, CA. We hope to find more people who enjoy airsoft who live here so that we can create a directory of people. Our main goal is putting together a league where a schedule would be created with times, dates, and locations throughout Tehachapi where we can meet to play a few games, or pratice shooting.
What is airsoft?
Airsoft is a recreational game and collector's hobby. Airsoft guns are highly detailed replicas of authentic firearms. They are exact in every detail to their real counterparts. They use electric, spring, or gas power to shoot 6mm bb's. They have an effective range of up to 200' and most are fully automatic. The bb's they shoot weigh only .20 gram so they do not hurt nearly as much as paintball. The bb's leave no mark and calling yourself out is on the honor system. Airsoft is a game of honor. These realistic looking guns are combined with authentic looking uniforms and scenarios to play live wargames. Similiar to paintball, players compete in mock combat but with much more attention to theatrics and roleplaying. Airsoft players focus on the fantasy aspect of the game as opposed to the purely competive sport of paintball. Effectively, airsoft players like to 'play army' in a safe and friendly environment.
Who I'd like to meet: Other Tehachapi Airsofters. If you have any pictures of Airsoft action, send them to me and I'll be sure to put them up!
Contact Jeff, the TSOG CO (myspace) for further information. He is a sergeant for a local PD in Kern County. Hit me back up if you have trouble reaching him. I will brief him tomorrow at work in advance.
