Finally Airsoft International magazine hits the news stands this month! Up until now, AI has only been available from airsoft retailers, sites and by subscription. Now everyone in the UK will see this in their local newsagents. If you think "Big deal", it is exactly that. What better way to educate the masses on Airsoft than by offering this fabydoo magazine to the general public? Yeah OK, TV ads would be better but they couldn't contain the contents of this mag in 15-30 seconds and you couldn't keep it under your mattress, could you?
BUY IT NOW!


OH YES. biggrin.gif

I was going to say - what are the chances of me going into smiths today and finding it?

But i guess it's more on the basis of, all newsagents can get it if you ask nicely.

Despite whats been said about it, it's nice to have something to show to your mates when they ask what your hobby is.

Looks like an online order. mad.gif

Does any one have a link to get a subscription? huh.gif

Or are they worried about keeping it going for a full year. sad.gif

Might be the case, or it could just be that it taking a while for smiths to start distributing them...

Oh well, Airsoft international are coming to my local urban site tommorow to do a review smile.gif

Because in Hong Kong you can find more airsoft information in the toilet than in a copy of AI?

Of course, that's true in the UK as well...
