This is my custom M4 carbine, which I partially painted in olive drab (not enough headshots for red tiger stripe).
I just finished it and I'm pretty happy with how it turned out smile

Now you're probably wondering why I have a tactical carbine...
It's not real, notice the wire coming out the back? It fires plastic ball bearings at 330 feet per second, roughly 10 per second.
So why do I have it... I use it for Airsoft, which is a bit like paintballing, except a lot better. It's much more tactical and you can actually accurately fire in a straight line, its cheaper and hurts a lot less. The general attitude of players is really good, one of the reasons I keep going back is because everyone is so friendly everywhere. It's hard to describe how fun it is really.
Admittedly it is a bit geeky but some people take it way further than I do. I just do skirmishes for fun, some people run MilSim games... which is basically LARP with guns.
Everyone wears camouflage and tactical gear anyway... not to roleplay but because it's actually useful (that's why soldiers use it)
I pretty much just wanted to show off the gun I just painted but thought you where due some kind of explanation. Everyone should totally find a site near you and give it a go though ;D
