Farewell Squid…

sss

As of today, Squid has stepped down from the Rainbow Team do to many reasons explained on the Facebook page. (see link http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=372006802870179&set=a.150484095022452.35712.10000182587 6492&type=1&theater). As we all know Squid was a crucial part of the success of  Rainbow. With his overwhelming knowledge of the internet, and cunning business skills; Squid turned Rainbow into the thriving airsoft powerhouse it is today. We all will miss his ridiculous jumping though windows, and fearless running through BB's. As you all might know, Squid/ David...

An appreciated email from some friends

UTG M3 Tri-Shot Shotgun

m3l__89944_zoom

Recently, the entire RAINBOW Airsoft Team purchased these shotguns in preparation for Code Red Airsoft's 2011 Halloween Zombie Night. For only $50 dollars, we were a little skeptical on how these things were going to work. In the box, we had: the shotgun itself, one shotgun shell, a sling, and instuction manual. The shotgun feels and appears to be made out of a decent plastic, but still nervous because of the abuse our team put on guns. The shotgun comes in many different styles. It is made with a full stock, collapsing barrel, no stock with a rail system, and shorter barrel. The team decided...

Episode 4 and 5!

Hey guys and gals, I'm posting to announce the release of Episode 4 of our YouTube Web Series for sometime this week! It will be a short Episode, we had about two hours to shoot on the film day. Don't worry, we made up for the length with extra awesomeness. We are working with a legit production company named Resound Productions, so go check them out at resoundproductions.com. On another note, we are already planning to film Episode 5 on the 1st Friday of November, so we will have that out sometime later that month. Stay tuned!

Special Delivery

Well, we just finished episode 3! I will be honest and admit that we didn't have a fully functioning script, only 1 day to shoot and only 1 person to edit... so needless to say, it didn't turn out quite how I expected but it's still a pretty awesome episode! We have already started scripting out episode 4 and let me tell you... AWESOME. It's going to involve some top notch stunts, footage and airsoft action. The tentative date for the release is the end of October. We're going to try really hard to release at least one episode a month from here on out. Well, thanks for reading and hope everyone...

Droid

droid

Forged in the solar furnace of the Southern California desert, was Rainbow's most mysterious member... DROID. He is Rainbow's heavy weapons expert, demolitions expert, and Engineer. Don't get too close! He will deploy all 18 Volts of his custom M4 LMG. Hiding in buildings will do you no good, DROID will demonstrate his astonishingly accurate Underbarrel  Rocket Launcher. If you find yourself facing Rainbow in the dark, look out for his blinding light system. It will be the last thing you see before hundreds of BB's send you home. If you are fortunate enough to meet him off the field, give...

Why we like the ACA!

The Association of Competitive Airsoft

Airsoft has such a wide range of players and it encompasses a large variety of different play styles. Not everyone who likes playing with airsoft guns is going to enjoy long milsim operations, being told what to do by a "commanding officer" or having to dress like a certain branch of the military. Believe it or not, there are some airsoft players out there who love to run around with a group of friends, take on challenging objectives and try to win games. Our team is a perfect example of the latter. We love the challenges that playing against another competent, tactical, fun team offers....

Echo1 240 Bravo Video Contest!

Rainbow has entered this contest to win an m240B from Echo1 USA. We discussed whether this may be unfair to entries that don't have as big of a channel, but this will pretty much be our first and last contest. We want to demolish with that thing out on the field! Gulk and Ranger had the honor of manning the glorious 240 in combat, during their tours in Iraq. They want it back! So go to this link and like the video to help us win: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r_fMyx6jUSA&feature=feedlik
