#19 After Dark - JP: The Practical Application of Airsoft, Survival vs. Play, USPSA & How Fitness Changes Your Firearms Training

Published 4 years, 3 months ago
Description

It’s great to be back on here for another After Dark Episode with JP! We’ve both had a lot going on in the past weeks with product development, program launches and a whole lot of training. In light of being busy with a full plate, I was curious to know if JP had any new updates for us on Airsoft versus USPSA as they relate to civilian training, practical applications and bang for your buck. Is airsoft comparable to paintball or are there real benefits to entering the free-for-all range and interacting with the variety of characters commonly found there? JP shares his insights on what to expect at the Airsoft range, who you’ll most likely encounter and the gear he recommends for succeeding there.
