    Default Gun games: New shootout sport combines real guns and MMA fighting

    http://www.foxla.com/entertainment/f...34116427-story

    LAS VEGAS, NV (FOX 11) - Imagine targeting a target that shoots back at you. Think it is virtual reality? Think again, it is ultra-reality. It’s part of a new sport where gun fighting slams into mixed martial arts (MMA), mixing shootouts with guns. And when all the ammo is gone, the opponents can get down to some real fighting.
    We’re not talking compressed air paintball guns. Everything operates the same way as a real gun, because it is a real gun. The ammo operates in the same way as real ammo with blue and red tip bullets to indicate the team colors. When the bullets hit their target, they leave a mark all over their opponent’s protective gear, and when it hits the skin, it stings. The mark can sometimes leave behind big red welts – all from non-lethal training ammunition.

    This is just paintball (even if they are using simunitions) with a bar fight thrown in...

    A full contact sport amongst strangers? If thats the case I can see the bullies appearing very soon.

    Stay Bladed.

    This is just paintball in Boksburg.

    Nothing wrong with force on force training, get all the training you can get.

    Force on force done properly is a wonderful tool. But its very easy to fuck up and turn into a game of paintball where the damage it does outweighs the benefits. This smells like the latter.

    It sounds like paintball with more realistic firearms

    Maybe the same reason I by accident had to buy this paintball magfed M17. Does not use a hopper. 20 rounds in mag.
