    It would be hundreds. Not sure exactly.

    I think it would be impossible to say really. As there are so many airsofters that aren't on boards. I'd put it in the high hundreds (but that would just purely be a guess).

    Skirmishers? If there's more than five/six hundred either active or "taking a break but plan to get back into it" then I'd be surprised. There are more than a few skirmishers that don't use boards.ie

    Plinkers & collectors? A lot more than skirmishers.

    In any case, a futile exercise to try and calculate as you'd be p*ssing into the wind, especially where plinkers are concerned.

    Well thats roughly the figure I had in mind. I suppose thats more mid hundreds. (But what I meant was more then one or two hundred).

    And I wasn't even trying to take into account collectors or plinkers. I just assumed when he asked about people who play airsoft that he wasnt interested in the amount of collectors/plinkers.

    i would say 200 - 300 active skirmishers ( would say play at least one a month )

    a would say there are a fair number of collectors, there is an awful lot of people that buy one or two rifs because there rifs, do not really class these as collectors and they have nothing to do with the skirmish seen

    I would not realty see it as being accurate, the vast majority of players tbh do not use boards,
