More from The Airsoft Experience
Send us Fan Mail Airsoft gets a lot more interesting the moment you stop treating every target like a must-shoot. We’re joined by Ontario airsoft player and event host Matt Cappon to talk about what “tactical” really means: patience, positioning, and the psychology of choosing the right moment instead of the fastest trigger pull. Matt breaks down the indoor formats he’s built at Action Air, including low light mission games with medic rules and his Advanced Tactical Games inspired by Ready O...
Send us Fan Mail A mission starts, the horn sounds, and you’re suddenly on a strict budget of time, ammo, and attention. That’s the point of Operation Disarmed: a real-cap airsoft milsim event where the objective matters more than the gunfight, and sloppy shooting costs your whole team.

We get into the design choi...
Send us Fan Mail Phone Conversation Winter has a way of sanding down hard-won skills, and most indoor walk-ons don’t fix it. So we brought in Daryl Robson—MagFed veteran, airsofter, and two-tour Ukraine combatant—to lay out a practical CQB training plan built for Ontario’s cold months. No fluff, no heroics. Just a clear path to keep angles clean, communication tight, and team flow intact when the outdoor season is asleep. We walk through a four-hour format that actually builds: safet...
