Numbers mean NOTHING without FRIENDS! - Thumpy's Airsoft News and Comment
Thumpy Covey's insight:
We saw a big spike in the numbers the lasts two weeks here on the new WordPress.com News site, on YouTubewith “Thumper on the Bumper” and our coverage of GI Tactical Virginia’s 2nd Anniversary…heck, all across the social chans, too (Even Facebook, without their help…thank you very much!) But, ‘the numbers’ are not why we do this. It is to help all of you find a place where your voices can be heard. By manufacturers, by the stores, fields and sites you play. By game producers and game PLAYERS…here in the USA for the way we play and for positive shooters around the world, too. Thanks for keeping us always growing, share if you care and let us know what we’re doing…right or wrong….we do it for all of YOU! “Get Some” for Thumpy this weekend!…..OVER!

"Shoutout of the Week (SOTW) is my new video series and highlights Individuals, YouTubers, and Companies that do positive things for the Airsoft Community.
Thumpy Covey's insight:
THANKS DICE! David is TOO KIND, but that's the kind of support we can return in triplicate! HIT HIS LINKS, Guys and Girls!

Thumpy Covey's insight:
OK, official policy as of today...there is no more "BB war" here at the 3D House of Airsoft. BB's are small plastic-based spheroids being pooped by a tiny amount of compressed air out of a smoothbore barrel of dubious quality. Whether they have an air bubble in them or not, as long as they don't break in my gun and damage any gun parts, I DON'T GIVE A RATS' ASS ANY MORE! If some BB Companies want to throw thousands of dollars at me to help me do my news job better, I'll be happy to accept. I plan on telling everyone you are a news supporter but not a sponsored company. But the one thing I won't do is fight your silly fights for you, 'won't talk bad about any competing company that is doing a straightforward job of selling good products, and I won't be covering non-scientific "BB tests" put up on YouTube that show just how silly and divisive the whole thing has become. You know who you are. Stop it, buy what works for you, in the color you prefer if that is important, and shut the hell up. Go sling BB's and stop spouting the company line. Rant far from over, I am sure, but have at it.....

Airsoft and Milsim News and INNOVATION for the USA and the World!
Thumpy Covey's insight:
Good point on a comment from Warrior Padre Ikaika Padree: We post up news AS SOON AS WE FIND IT. We don't try to time-filter things, set them up in a row or space them out and make you wait. The idea is to put what we think you'll be interested in most...and that's usually what interests Thumpy....all in one place on the SCOOP, push out to the social channels where you guys find it, then you can go get it when you are ready. OR, just go to the SCOOP.IT, and scroll down through the entries as many pages back as you want to scan them. One other benefit of what we do...all the SCOOPs are searchable by keywords through the online FUNNEL in the upper right corner...and searches just as well via GOOGLE or your favorite search engine. You can always find what you are looking for on THUMPY'S SCOOP!

"This post started out with a simple PM to MR. Al Covey "I realized that I have known you for a couple of years but know hardly anything about you. I was wondering if you would like to write a post for the Blog...." Thumpy being the seasoned pro he is, quickly provided all the information below! BUT....in the process of getting this post ready, I did have one burning question that remained.... "How did you get the name "Thumpy?"" to which he replied: "Three reasons, I love grenade launchers and 4 stroke motorcycles, aka, thumpers...and ThumpMaster came from a gaming nickname from an old hover tanks free play game on line called Wolfram...and the original Tom Clancy's Rainbow 6 shooters. Kinda stuck with it now!" We hope you all enjoy this little glimpse into ..... Who is Thumpy?..."
Thumpy Covey's insight:
The HOOKUP from WARRIOR PADRE! So glad to see this blog start to grow...its one of my favorites, by a guy who is constantly on all the THUMPY social channels, slapping that like and commenting on what we do, too! SALUTE!
