About HQ Airsoft The Outpost

The Outpost is HQ Airsoft's site at Birkin, near Knottingley, easy to reach from across West and South Yorkshire. It covers 15 acres of mixed woodland and urban-style combat terrain, with purpose-built fortifications and more than eight game zones, from dense forest ambushes to open field objective runs. Walk-on skirmishes run every Saturday and Sunday, usually from 9am to 4pm with gates opening at 8.30am, as a full or half day. Game modes through the day include team deathmatch, objective missions and attack and defend, and the site mostly runs single-shot games, with full auto at the marshals' discretion. Newcomers can book a shorter trial day with all kit provided, and hire packages include a gun, full face protection and BBs. Walk-on players must be 16 or over, or 14 and over with an adult on trial days. On site there is battery charging, toilets, hot food on game days, drinks, BBs and consumables, an airsoft shop and free parking, and cards are accepted. The whole site can be booked for private groups of 15 or more, including stag dos, schools, clubs and corporate days. Annual membership covers HQ Airsoft and Unit 26 and includes UKARA registration.
