The last one I was involved in was Friday, using guns firing 6mm plastic BBs of course. And that was one of half a dozen or so in the last month.
Here's what I've learned: Just about everything that is practiced and taught goes right out the window when an adversary with a gun comes around the corner right in front of you. Sight picture? What sight picture? Point the gun and shoot! You can also forget about a proper grip, stance and counting shots too. Sloppy trigger/excess take-up/over-travel/etc., who has time to notice when there's 1-4 people trying to shoot you? Shoot fast and shoot often! then run for cover and reload.
I think this is an invaluable training aid that is often overlooked as a childish pursuit. But don't take my word for it, get a gun or two (don't forget the safety glasses) get a friend, go in your basement, back yard or wherever and shoot it out. See what happens, then post your results here.
