AirsoftCon 2010 is a three day airsoft experience hosted by Team Stormblade that features an airsoft convention and airsoft event all at one unique location. A modern 40k square foot convention center sits inside the prison walls of the West Virginia Penitentiary. The WV Penitentiary main structure is over 1,100' feet long with many rooms and exteriors structures. Come for one day or all three.

Test your squad’s skills against our Shadow Squad Role Players in different scenarios. Rescue a science team being held hostage in a science lab by terrorists. Perform a realistic drug raid when an undercover officer calls in for backup.

The event will also feature multiple squad based force-on-force scenarios throughout the day and night.

Hone your squad’s skills with a FREE 2-hour CQC training course provided by High Risk Training*.

During downtime browse the vendors and exhibitors in the conference center.

The entry fee seems to be pretty reasonable considering all that you get for your $95.  This is really something to look into!

Registration starts July 1st at midnight. 1 person can register up to 10 people at a time. So if you are really wanting to go, get somebody to do the registration and send them your money before.

A carpool can only carry so many unless somebody has a big van...
