It's European Airsoft Practical Shooting weekend as the 2014 Airsoft Surgeon Airsoft Practical Shooting European Championship starts. The top airsoft practical shooters in Europe and some elite shooters from Hong Kong will be participating in a 3-day event  where speed and accuracy matters much. Popular Airsoft will be there to cover all the action.

Last year's host, The Grange in Coventry, United Kingdom, will be again hosting this year's big airsoft practical shooting event.  This is a 16-stage event with an approximate total of 300 rounds spread out over a three days with a one day Pre-Match. The event has the following divisions and categories:

• Classic (1911 single stack GBB only) (Max 10 rounds BB in each magazine)

Categories:

Organised together with RedWolf Airsoft, the shooting starts by 1300H BST today. On Saturday, there will be a BBQ right after the last stage for that day. The declaration of winners and presentation of awards and prizes will be on Sunday, the 3rd of August 2014.

If you want to see the airsoft practical shooting first hand, you're free to visit The Grange at Frog Lane, Balsall Common, Coventry CV7 7FP.  We encourage British Airsoft players to take a serious look at airsoft practical shooting as it is so far the most competitive and structured amongst different types of airsoft competitions.

The after action report with photos and videos will be posted next week. Below are the videos of last year's competitions. See you in Coventry later.
