In like 2008 I was coming back from an overnight airsoft event in rural Texas at like 3am and had to stop for gas. I pulled into the only gas station in a small town just off the highway and was just about to get out of the truck when a sketchy dude walks out from behind the gas pump and started asking me questions through my window *hey man, cool truck, is that yours or your parents, where you coming from?* I rolled out of there real fast and found a safer stop up the road.
Keep in mind, I was in military gear at the time because I was young and dumb, but that didn't stop sketchy McCrackhead from chatting me up.

Airsoft gear does not look like military gear. It looks like military role play, which looks obvious to most people. I think that was part of why they felt so comfortable approaching you
