Awesome. You have a lot of looks to draw from. Not as many as Adler but pretty close it seems.

HaHaHaHaHahahaHA my dad was a big Andy Grifith so he loved all the movies of Don Knotts. Me and pete have always been pretty big with the civil war so it would be cool to do an impression just for the crap of it.

Is anyone still interested in doing this? It sounds like a hell of a lot of fun.

I dunno, sounds fun. Would take time, effort, and money to coordinate like anything else. As I cannot drive yet and don't have a car even if I could going out of state is unrealistic for me so yea... unless you get something going in MI. WWII keeps me busy enough. ;D

Years and years ago I saw a science fiction movie about an emmersive Western experience that involved stepping back in time into what felt and looked like the old west. The paying customers arrived in costume and were exposed to all the classic encounters from the entire movie genre of westerns. The adversarial players were all robots and the lead adversary was played brilliantly by Yul Brenner. You couldn't tell who the customers were and who the cyborgs were. In the course of the movie of course the robots went haywire and the bullets flying were real. It was a cool movie and a concept not unlike what we do with airsoft events (minus the robots) I ran into a guy who on his property he created a full blown movie ranch type set up of the old west. The 3 1/2 acres houses slightly downsized but incredibly detailed structures that depict all the classic buildings in an old west town (at least as depicted in the movies) The Saloon, The bank, the sheriffs office, the school house, a hotel, a Chinese laundry even a train station. I thought to myself how cool it would be to hold an airsoft event there ala West World. You could have a bank heist, a jail break, the town under seize by the evil rustlers, who knows. Certainly you could have shoot outs on the streets and high noon showdowns. Pocker games in the saloon, dance hall girls the skys the limit. The place is amazing. It's located in Western Washington near Portland Oregon. 2nd Bat, Sorry for the necro post. So glad to see you here. This is Wade with the Spokane Devil Dogs. Just wanted to let everyone know that we are now doing Cowboy Airsoft on my Ranch. I’ve posted a couple of gun reviews here, the 1873 Colt SAA and the 1892 Winchester. Here is a little intro for our series called “The Chronicles of Grizzly Gulch” Enjoy!

Cool idea. Don't have the gear and it's a long ways away from here. I've toyed with trying Cowboy Action Shooting, but that's horrendously expensive to get into. Keep us posted on future events.

If I may suggest this, perhaps we should start a separate board for Cowboy Airsoft.

Im a SASS member. But I have learned through promoting Cowboy Airsoft that SASS members on the whole have a extremely low opinion of Airsoft. If your interested in CAS and don’t want to buy 2 pistols, a rifle and a shotgun (SASS)? Try NCOWS. My understanding is they have a category with just one pistol and one rifle is required. They are more strict on impressions than SASS though, but there is a grace period. ncows.comAs far as Cowboy Airsoft? I think I paid 120.00 for the Colt and 150.00 for the Winchester? From Evike. Pretty cheap. As far as leather? Tandy leather is your friend if your on a budget. Mexican loop holsters and slim Jim’s are period correct. Buscadero rigs (John Wayne) are a Hollywood invention, but work in a pinch. The Arizona Ghost Rider channel is a wealth of info for the Cowboy Reenactor on a budget. Truly a great channel!

BTW, for anyone not familiar with it, the movie 2nd Bat referenced in the original post back in 2009 was "West World." Written by Michael Crichton ("Jurassic Park"). It was revived as a TV series a couple years ago, with the storyline much expanded. The first season is available on Dvd. It's very well done, but a bit grittier and darker than the original movie.

If it's in the summer I might even drive up there. I have some friends in Spokane I haven't seen in years.

Thanks John!
I’m trying to do something every month, and I post it on our website as well as Airsoft Pacific and Eastern Washington Airsoft. I think if we stay consistent people will realize that it’s safe to invest in guns and gear.
I have extra guns and gear too and would also be willing to travel and help out other regional Cowboy Airsoft events.
