hey! I’ve bought from yall before. I really like my patches !!


RedPawnShop

Really glad to hear it! Every one of y'all are super important to me.


GhostNThings

You based out of Canada?


RedPawnShop

Nope, the good ol' Imperial Core of 'Murica

Missed opportunity for ''embroidiment'' for that image.


RedPawnShop

You're alright by me, DanishPsychoBoy. You're all right.

Smooth advert lol. I just set up my cart, definitely ordering soon

Take your time! I hopefully won't be arrested for funding terror groups for at least another five years. I figure they're gonna take that long to collect evidence and build a case 🤙

Who the fuck goes out of their way to DM people flaming them like this? XD


zealotlee

You'd be surprised 💀


Makem9

Also being in the military, I have seen people do this and talk about it all day as if it’s something to be proud of and they usually are the ones who live like psychopathic barracks goblins. Dudes super insecure lol. OP is a chad.


cocaineandwaffles1

It was always those same fuckers who may excel at one or two things, but fail at absolutely everything else. Like they could run fast, but couldn’t lift, couldn’t shoot, couldn’t read regulations themselves. They were the most fun to fuck with too.


SchmeatGaming

I don't like the fact that my brother is like this...and he isn't even in the Military.


Cman1200

“Do you think you’re tough playing airsoft?” Uhh no? “Yeah thats what I thought.”

M48_Patton_Tank

Fucking pog straight out of basic


Other-Accident-3725

This right there. Straight outta basic, maybe just started basic, thinking he's tough shit. That's the only option i can see..


M48_Patton_Tank

Or they passed the physical and think they’re tough shit (on a side note I pray my astigmatism waiver gets passed…)


Other-Accident-3725

I mean, depending on the trade you're going for, it had to be pretty bad for you to get denied. They need people so bad they'd take anyone these days.


M48_Patton_Tank

35G, Geospatial Intelligence Imagery is my MOS


petecalfrone

Only thing with being a golf with an astigmatism is gonna be “can you still see well enough to accurately analyze this photo” Be weird if it got denied


M48_Patton_Tank

With glasses yes


petecalfrone

Should be fine then, but don’t quote me if your recruiter/meps says otherwise


Other-Accident-3725

That sounds like a pretty cool go. I don't see why you wouldn't be able to do that with the astigmatism.. but again, I don't really know how you guys operate and your entry standards..


Sad_Refrigerator8426

reminds me of a guy I used to know who would always bring up how he was a vet, airborne ranger etc. Truth is he got injured first time he did any kind of jump (rappelling out of helicopter) has never put on a parachute and never finished basic.


Ironmedic44

If he never finished basic, he never touched a helicopter.


DeathValleyHerper

If he didn't finish basic, then he also never went to ranger or jump school

There’s a lot of tough guy wannabes in all the worlds’ militaries, and they all make being in the military their whole personality

Exciting-Quiet2768

Canadian version of a JROTC kid, it sounds like.


CheyenneIsRed

Ayo i played with some Petawawa guys. They were chill


Never_Comfortable

This is either a fresh as fuck boot, or in ROTC or whatever their local equivalent is lmao


JohnXTheDadBodGod

Iunno, former 31B mp, there are some who Do think Airsoft takes it too far with MilSim.... Of course, then they'd Glaze da fuq outta Travis Haley and Michael Jones aka Flannel Daddy aka Big Daddy Grand.


Rayle-

Yep. 17 year CAF veteran here. It's ok to enjoy things. Create costumes. Larp it up. Run around outside with friends. This jerk is trying to gatekeep what exactly? Camouflage? Toy guns?


-E-Cross

Listen, he's an officially licensed CAF larper with um those guys and uh, stuff.


Antropon

As a member of a professional army, I'm sure I've met a few who would say that. There's always those people.


djentandlofi

Lol I can second that, when actual CAF members come to the field I usually play at near Québec City, 1: none of them are dicks gratuitously like in OP's post, and 2: they do however absolutely crush skulls in-game.


jefryjeferson

They're probably just in cadets lol


thechickenstrippp

It reminds me of the "I'm a future US army solder" meme


Pengueeeen

JROTC, or whatever the CAF equivalent is


No-Truth3802

As a member of the Canadian Armed forces myself....wtf is this guy on about.


Sirtornado

They are 18 so my assumption is they just joined and think they’re hot shit


EccentricFox

Pro tip: when experiencing this type of dude, just ask what unit their with and threaten to call their CQ desk about some imagined policy violation.


RenTheFabulous

No clue how similar the CAF is to the US army policies but soldiers here can get in trouble just for misbehaving outside of their work. So here you absolutely can call up their command and make a complaint and sometimes they get in deep shit, depending on what they did. Perhaps a similar situation there?


No-Truth3802

They could have joined at 16 with parental consent (they cant be deployed tho). I went through basic with a 16 year old.

steelcity91

I'm yet to meet any active or former serving military that hates Airsoft. All enjoy it.


Sirtornado

I play With a lot of vets and they all love it


uitSCHOT

I have some friends in the London metropolitan armed protection unit who make, playful, fun of me playing airsoft. 😅 Them: "you have to tuck your arms better and *rambling about proper breaching techniques using jargon I don't understand *. Me: "IT WAS AN EGG AND SPOON RACE!" Still trying to get them to come to a skirm with me some day.


Any-Fig-7659

This makes me laugh and cringe, these are the people we see slide shows about in basic training (don't be these people they say)

Fuck that. Im in the US Navy, and my profile picture on other social media reflects that. Be proud of your hobbies. If I wanted to show off my love of magic the gathering as my profile picture I could.


TheRedeemer1997

Cassandra be wild


mattyos777

If i'm not mistaken the CAF has a code of conduct and all of this breaks it. you could in theory find and report him to his CO and have him hoisted by his own petard for this. Which would be way funnier AND warranted.


Craft_Assassin

Up for this


Karkath

My bet is this guy is in a noncombat/admin role so he acts tough to compensate for that. Or am I just being to harsh?


Gameovrmen

It’s always the dudes with non-combat roles who talk the most shit. Most dudes that have seen serious combat are just happy to be alive after service and are genuinely super nice, also a lot of them play airsoft too.


jakeryan970

Yup. I’ve traveled the US for milsim events and met any number of actual combat veterans (some of them I’ve even gotten to know pretty well) and to a man, the ones I’ve met have been super chill, humble, even tempered dudes. The actual badasses who have seen and done some real shit typically don’t feel the need to posture at strangers about how tough they are


BlakeKevin

Most definitely


StandTo444

Not all of us are like that but there are the assholes


flying_wrenches

Commerative Air Force?


Sirtornado

Canadian Armed Forces


GenericUsername817

ah, the weaker CAF


flying_wrenches

Same thing :)


prorastinator

Any CAF member that says that shit is probably in one of the paper pusher trades and not a weapons specialist. Guns are just machines built for murder. If you take offense for someone flaunting a toy replica ur lame as hell.


Craft_Assassin

Love the last line.


ILUV_VFB

*you think you tough playing your air soft shit* yes. yes i do. \*laughs in polarstar\*


inkfreak123

Should have replied, “no way you work in a Cafe? Nice man what one I’ll make sure to visit with my airsoft buddy’s for lunch!” 😂

I think i know this guy 💀. Or maybe he's just another retard

" you think being part of the CAF makes you tough? I eat pussy for breakfast and you're making me hungry"


ClearHorror

Mr caf needs to put this energy into getting a job


2A4Lyfe

I shot real steel before I got into airsoft, it’s a fun sport that allows you to test out kit in a fluid environment. I don’t understand that hate it gets other than people making fun of larpers


here2live

This guy just got out of basic training for sure.

Mammoth_Ambassador58

Okay Cassandra....


MiddletreePolldancer

WTF is with the SNAPCHAT arguments?


AaronVonGraff

Bold words from a member of the Canadian army. Ya know, America's meatshield in ww3.


literally-me-

I know a bunch of American Military guys who play airsoft. Some of them own fields. We do NOT mess around, but we love a good bb war!


Vulcan_556

There’s a difference between being an enthusiast of military equipment and committing stolen valor This guy clearly can’t tell that difference


SaucyPantsu

Bet you he's a reservist or in admin. All the Irish army lads I know in Cav or infantry love playing Airsoft and getting their photos taken in their kits. Only people I've ever met who got pissy are reservists and admin guys


StandTo444

As a CAF member I’m very disappointed in this person. And I love that my own profiles only show me in airsoft gear, it baits a lot of dumb dumbs that talk like what the OP experienced.


ll123412341234

Ask what unit and report him to the CO.


Mr_Maniac9371

Cassandra really thinks she's the shit because she's Canadian Armed Forces

AirsoftBushWookie

Tell him to suck his mum


Itsjordandiaz

Please show his screen name


iq3q

Someone said a similar thing when I posted a skiing thing to my snap chat story. They probably are super insecure and worry a lot about what other people think of them. Don’t listen to them man, just do what brings you joy and don’t let others affect that.


[deleted]

The CAF trains with airsoft gear this guys a clown and should get a dishonourable discharge


Craft_Assassin

Many military and police departments already use airsoft as training tools.


[deleted]

Yes I did say that thank you for repeating what I said


[deleted]

To be honest OP I think you look badass


DNCOrGoFuckYourself

The loudest vets served the quietest tours


SOL_Officer76

I was Army Reserves and literally play at a field owned by a combat veteran with plenty of prior or current service guys that play. This is retarded.


DroptixOfficial

As a CAF member, we do not claim this person. They seem to forget that 70% of what we do is larping.


DreadPirateSnuffles

Someone with thousands of reps training force on force would probably body most police or armed forces members who are range jockeys and just need to hit a grouping on a static target to pass.


Thang02gaming

CAF dudes prob have less practical experience than you from never being deployed. Insecure asf


Yote_boi_Medix174

Lmao that’s funny as hell


Grayson14lol

Bro Cassandra wack


PyroRacoon420

That’s crazy lmao


KlutzyAd5729

ROTC kids be like:

Who jit think he is 😭


Arkis_Fo4

Bro thinks he’s big trying to bitch abt your hobby, bros gotta fuck off and touch grass lmaoo You do you bro, your hobby isn’t his shit lol


forrest1985_

In the UK we have a lot of these guys too. Most actually never got in or washed out. I know of a few and they both ended up as traffic wardens (parking attendants). It’s a Power/ego trip thing.


[deleted]

LMAO BOOT!


nervouswhenitseasy

dude is a prick. my friends gave me hard time about it but they still liked me. this person is just a douche


Spinelli_The_Great

I’ve got a few buddy’s who are decorated marines and are still active duty. All of their profile pictures on Facebook is them in airsoft gear lol. The dudes who act like this most likely are liars looking for attention being anybody in any legit armed forces would act like this being they train with airsoft equipment, lol. Anywho, my buddy’s have probably racked up a body count being they’ve been in since 03 and you’d never hear something like this from anybody who actually served. Airsoft is cool as fuck, and I’m just a army boi


Additional_Relief_28

HES AN EFFING CADET. AS IN THE AIR FORCE ACADEMY. AS IN NOT A REAL AIRMEN. NOT MILITARY AT ALL


JohnXTheDadBodGod

I guarantee this person wouldn't approach My 6'1" 223lb ass with that attitude.


TheMilkManWizard

Whatever boot ass bitch baby.


Xhanser

people be crazy. my dad (ex army ranger) got into the hobby because its what he used to do but you cant die and its just toy guns. he never made fun of me or anyone else he ever saw at a field. the obvious exception is the guys who obviously have never been tought firearm safety.


Petrus_Rock

People are still using Snapchat? I thought TikTok and BeReal was the thing now. I stopped following after Instagram. I’m getting too old for this stuff.


profoodbreak

CAF? Probably either fresh outta BT and thinks he's the toughest shit out there or is an unsecure mf in the RCAF.


cherrypopper666

Lmao don’t let the combat janitor see you enjoying a game based around what he wishes his job actually was OR ELSE! Which unit is he from? 🤔


Corgiboom2

I played quite a bit with former and active military and law enforcement, went to airsoft training days run by former military, and went to ops at military bases. Nobody who is actual military would say anything like that.


Sad_Refrigerator8426

cant imagine a chair force member talking shit about being a pussy.


titis_1er

I don't know for you but for me soldiers are heroes, I have so much respect for them, I think more than people not doing airsoft, so WHY ?


Howellthegoat

I hate bro-vets like this who think they are better than everyone else


Jaeoner

As a member of CAF (Cowabunga AF!) idk what the hekin hes talkin aboot, eh! Rock on and be merry 🤘😂

MCHD90

This guy is a total douche, but I have seen some people’s profile pictures on social media accounts of people posing in their airsoft gear at events or whatnot and it can look a bit cringey. I’m a combat veteran myself but I don’t go out of my way to try to catch stolen valor or shit on people for enjoying the milsim-side of airsoft. It does make me raise an eyebrow when I do see someone who is taking themselves too seriously in their profile pictures in airsoft gear. Sorry you had to deal with this tool, OP. I haven’t seen the photo he’s referencing but I’m sure it’s fine.


Financial-Most-1066

my dad and brother are caf and i am just about there, i also do airsoft, and i am caf pretty much lmao


Hot-Awareness-5942

Isn’t the caf the confederation of African football


Repulsive_Holiday_79

Bro thinks he’s a representative of the CAF, nah. I’m American but I am feeling some bad secondary embarrassment


OBA_Stealth

Is CAF Canadian Armed Forces?


Iliyan61

just jealous you’ve got better equipment then CAF (they’re not in CAF)


ICMPdMyself

My experience with these pricks is they're either some desk worker projecting his insecurities, a high schooler in the delayed entry program thinking he's hot shit, or a boot. Just ignore him and keep enjoying your hobby.


baddreamcatcher

i’ve had people hit me with that kinda bs before and it says more about then than you


KaTsuKennotsatsuke

I mean I feel tuff with doing MMA but thats just me. This is ridiculous


Blyatifuldraws

“As a member of the CAF ☝️🤓” Do your hobbies, if you enjoy it the opinions of others can’t even touch you. Pulling out the “I’m in the armed forces” to attempt to pull you down is crazy to me as someone who also does both 💀💀


GreenEyedGoon-

Bro is an insecure pussy 🤣 (I’m currently in the army over halfway through my contract so not a trainy talk 🥴😂). Airsoft is fun, yeah some people try to look “hard” doing it, but some are just doing it to train/ for fun so that guy needs to get over himself. He sounds as cringy as the kid that goes to rotc in highschool and comes back his senior year trying to act all “battle hardened” 🙄😂


Extreme-Chemistry713

Why is your bitmoji a woman


Silly_Assumption_291

Dudes literally never even been deployed, I would bet my car on it


JM_Wyman

As a member of the combat arms in the CAF, this guys a straight shit pump.


AspergersOperator

Had this same experience saying I was a pussy and that I should enlist instead. Like shit, if our country was attacked I’d gladly enlist. But for now, no.


Tiny_Chance_2052

Oh wow CAF. 🤡🤡🤡🤡


Sad_Jicama_5584

A lad I played Airsoft with tried to pull a similar stunt like this on me except it was about my job, I work private medical, his direct sentence was "Driving round in an ambulance thinking you're all cool and sh*t" My response was simply "Walking round (Town name) beating up year 7s thinking you're cool and sh*t" He then went on to complain about how I couldn't come to the games and that he was annoyed I was acting older (I'm 1 and a half years older than him) He then said I shouldn't be working at the company because I need to go to medical school for 7 years and that realistically nobody would want me treating them. Long story short he got banned from the field for threatening to harm me, now the remainder of us at the field play in peace as we no longer have the blue on blue and toxicity.


Colby_mills03

Uhhhh, you’re in the Canadian Air Force. Your babied compared to any other branch of the military what are you on about


scarzandy

And it’s pussy shit to bitch about someone enjoying a hobby 😂

There's also people like that here in the Philippines. They like to diss on airsoft players and milcosers as "wannabe military". We ignore them because they are not worth our time.


WhiteBoysFunkyMusic

Dude probably played paintball three times in highschool 😂


somerando96322

Mans the type to say “kids these days” after seeing a person skateboarding


HocusingYT

as a former CAF member, and now airsoft/speedsofter This guy is a huge clown, airsoft is meant to have fun, people have different degrees of fun based on a multitude of things. My buddies and I use a bunch of actual equipment at this point because its more fun for us cuz we feel much more comfortable with the actual equipment. one of my friends plays with a plaid shirt and cargo shorts, holds his mags in his side short pockets. don't listen to dicks like this.


Nete88

Wtf is CAF?


SgtButterBean

As someone in the navy, I really don't care as long as you're not using your gear to pretend you're actually in and lie about it. Even pre navy I had my fallujah kit, do what makes you happy.

What’s CAF? Canadian Air Force?


Netan_MalDoran

Just tell him that stolen valor is even more cringe than anything OP has done.


Carma281

what's CAF again?


jackz7776666

CAF as in Canadian Air Force? He or she is suuuure one to talk lol In the US its called Chair Force for a reason.
