Hello Airsofters I am Nehemiah Varnell and I am going to be talking about Black Ops Paintball and Airsoft. So the way I found this field started last year in September when I went on vacation with my family to Myrtle Beach, SC. We stayed for 8 days and before we went there I searched up some airsoft fields in the area. It turned out that there was one only 15 minutes from where we were staying. That field was Black Ops Paintball and Airsoft. So I brought my airsoft gun and on the last Saturday that we were there we went to the field and played airsoft. And as always, I recorded it. So if you want to watch that then you can here: Airsoft in South Carolina (Black Ops Paintball and Airsoft).
So overall I liked this field but just make sure to go only when they are open. Because me and my dad went there after they had closed to look at the field on Sunday around 6:30 P.M., and we knew the field was closed but we still just went to look around not to play on the field. But I guess one guy didn’t have a good day that day doing private matches or something. So he saw us and asked if he could help us while walking in our direction. He wasn’t nice about it, he said it in a gruff tone. But my dad just said we were there to look around at the field. But the guy kept walking and he just responded in his gruff voice with: “I only do walk-ons on Saturdays.” As he said it he walked past us and my dad started to respond but he cut him off with “I’m gonna close the gate in 5 minutes so hurry up.” or something like that I don’t remember. As he said this he also wasn’t even looking in our direction. He was just walking away.
So yea, that right there almost made me not want to go to the field. I honestly at that point would’ve rather gone to Airsoft Tactical. But we still went and it was okay. I say that because we went there at about 12:00 P.M. and left at about 2:00 P.M. and in those 2 hours we played a whole 2 matches. Because we had to wait 15 minutes between each game but it would always end up being about 20-25 minutes and also the guy at the check in didn’t give us wristbands at first so we had to go get them. But I liked that guy, he was nice about it and probably just forgot. But aside from the check in guy another person who was nice was the airsoft ref. But I also feel bad for the airsoft ref, because he has to chrono people, explain the game to people, and run the games. He doesn’t have help from any of the other staff. But one annoying thing is that the video for the second match was originally 20 minutes long, but we only played for about 8 of those minutes. So in the 2 hours we were there we played for a total of almost 25 minutes and waited for a total of about an hour and 35 minutes.
But as for the actual airsoft playing area, it is great. I mean they have shipping containers, large blocks, trenches, pallets, and more as cover. Also they have roads and as a centerpiece to the field they have a whole entire house which I think is 2 stories tall.
So I would say the airsoft field is great but the wait time between games is long and the staff aren’t the nicest people ever, but they are okay. But the overall field is good. I would give it a 7 out of 10. So if you’re in the area then I would recommend going. But of course this was only one experience so take it with a grain of salt. But I hope this was useful and you have a good day, but until next time goodbye.
