I just saw a western style larp/milsim game come up on my facebook feed within the last few days. I can't access it from this computer but if i remember i'll post a link later. I personally think these types of games are only going to become more popular. To me it seems the post apocalyptic larp games are on the rise along with non modern load outs. Since QueenBee and I both have some history with fantasy larping its just a matter of time before we start getting into these types of airsoft games. Over the last few days I've been thinking about the weapons I might purchase for the post apocalyptic style games. My thought process on those style of games is your weapons should be some of the most popular ones for that time/location in the most popular calibers. Of course you could use an AR for a post apocalyptic game, but i already have plenty of those. I was mostly looking into hunting style weapons, or ones that might be more of a family heirloom pieces. This post got me thinking that if I thought more about my selection then it could fill multiple roles. Picking up a lever action rifle and/or wood stock shotgun would meet requirements for both styles of games, the same could be done with pistols as well. I don't have a problem buying/ building a weapon to be used for a single game per year but I can understand others do.
