When I was a kid, we used BB pistols.

Airsoft are great for training and for FOF training.

You quickly learn that things are different between a range and a fight.

Yeah, whelps on the skin can be kind of nasty, especially when they are fresh, as they tend to be a little slimy and their mother gets kind of upset. :biggrinjester:

whelp (plural whelps)

Noun Singular whelp
Plural whelps

1. the young of a mammal.
2. an insolent youth.
3. one of several wooden strips to prevent wear on a windlass on a clipper-era ship.

Perhaps you were referring to welts?

Hey Jim! :thumbs2: (Ten year old version) "rlol"


I have never pronounced the word with a "T" sound. Must be that Texas vernacular of mine! "rlol"
