Welcome to BlackStone CQB Village!
A bespoke, purpose built Airsoft Site in Huntingdon - a Movie Set Village inside a Warehouse!
This Site was designed with many years of Airsoft experience and has amazing features including special effects, cameras and sound. It is swept and maintained on a Weekly basis to ensure the best experience possible.
Blackstone CQB has had no expense spared! The Site is built with over 2100 blocks, tonnes of plywood and timber, props, wallpaper and paint with the idea to "immerse" you in a realistic Village environment, regardless of the Weather outside!
The "theme" for this indoor Airsoft Site is set as a "War-torn European Village" early 1980's... Join us for a great experience of Airsoft Battles!
There is an Airconditioned Safe-Zone, ample table space for you to set up your kit, free Tea & Coffee, viewing area, fully stocked shop and a 4 lane shooting range!
This Site is ideal for experienced and new players alike... we offer Hire Equipment for those who need it.
BlackStone CQB is truly a remarkable unique Venue and we are very proud of it indeed. We hope you have LOTS of FUN! (AGE 12+)
We can accommodate PRIVATE BOOKINGS during the Week (day or evenings). If you are interested, please email: tony@riftairsoft.com

- GAME RULES: (Missions & Objectives)
Please LISTEN to your Team Marshal and plan ahead for best results!
All missions involve firefights, so, what is a HIT or Kill in Airsoft?
A hit or kill is when a BB leaves the BARREL of ANY WEAPON and makes CONTACT with you – without hitting ANYTHING Solid on its travel.
If it hits something SOLID first, such as the GROUND or WALL it then becomes a RICOCHET – A ricochet is NOT classed as a “Kill shot”
Your BODY, EQUIPMENT & WEAPON counts as a HIT!
It does NOT have to hurt! Sometimes you will only hear it hit you! IT STILL COUNTS!
What do you do when you FEEL or HEAR a hit a pellet hit you on your body, clothing & equipment?
1.) SHOUT HIT!!!! AS LOUD AS YOU CAN!
2.) PUT YOUR WEAPON OR HAND UP IN THE AIR IMMEDIATELY!
3.) MAKE IT OBVIOUS YOU HAVE BEEN HIT! (this will let the ENEMY know to STOP shooting at you!)
4.) MAKE YOUR WAY BACK TO YOUR RESPAWN & DO NOT LOITER in the GAME area.
4.) NO TALKING TO ANY OTHER PLAYERS AT ANY TIME (except shouting DEAD PLAYER WALKING!)
5.) KEEP YOUR HAND OR WEAPON RAISED AT ALL TIMES!
6.) YOU MUST TOUCH YOUR RESPAWN MARKER or MAP to REJOIN THE GAME.
7.) YOU MAY BE ASKED TO WAIT FOR ANOTHER PLAYER OR 2 BEFORE YOU REJOIN THE BATTLE (Game specific)
NO OVERKILLING AT ANY TIME - NO SHOOTING AT DEAD PLAYERS!
DO NOT FOLLOW & USE DEAD PLAYERS AS COVER!
- PLEASE NOTE:
HEADSHOTS DO COUNT - BUT PLEASE AIM FOR THE TORSO IF YOU CAN.
FRIENDLY FIRE DOES COUNT IRRELEVANT WHERE YOU ARE HIT FROM! (360 SITE!)
IF YOU "TEAM KILL" - YOU have to RESPAWN and they STAY in the GAME! Watch your targets!
RICOCHETS DO NOT COUNT – SHOUT RICOCHET AND PLAY ON!
WEAPON HITS DO COUNT – SHOUT HIT!!! and go to RESPAWN
AIM at ALL TIMES: FRONT & REAR SIGHT - - - ONLY SHOOT WHEN YOU HAVE A TARGET!!!
NO PRE-EMPTIVE FIRE – STRICTLY NO TRIGGER SPAM!
IF YOUR Rate of Fire IS TOO FAST WE WILL ASK YOU TO SLOW DOWN - OR SIT OUT!
NO UNARMED SPRINTING! Airsoft Weapon must be held at ALL TIMES!
KEEP MUZZLES DOWN PLEASE – "WEAPON UP" LOOKS LIKE YOU ARE OUT!
AGAIN - ** NO OVERKILL ** it only takes 1 bb to knock the Enemy Player back to Respawn!

There is 1 Long Stair, 2 Split Staircases & 1 Spiral Staricase.
We allow Shooting UP and DOWN on the Long Stair, 2 Split Staircases but NOT the Spiral Stairs.
To help the Gameplay flow - please do NOT "CAMP" the Stairs at the Top or Bottom. Keep Moving!
FOR SAFETY, THE SPIRAL STAIRCASE IS A NEUTRAL AREA;
1. DO NOT STOP or LOITER ON THE SPRIAL STAIRS.
2. DO NOT SHOOT FROM THE SPIRAL STAIRS.
3. IF YOU GET SHOT ON THE SPIRAL STAIRS, IGNORE IT.
