Totally understand what you're saying about trying to meet new people/ break into the community. When I first got into this it was by myself and I knew absolutely nobody. Just keep showing up to drop in games and it will feel more natural. If you go regularly you will start to see the same people over and over again and it will be easier to talk to people between rounds after good run on the field with them. The best teams are the ones that can work well together and communicate effectively, so if you run hard, play fair and have a good attitude you will meet people.
If you're looking for info on guns/practical advice I would stick to the msg board for now as its literally a gold mine of information. Ask google anything with ASC at the end and you'll probably find some of the better info on the net right here on this forum.
There are a lot of facebook groups, but as a new player you may find that a bit discouraging as there are a lot more people interested in goofing around and stroking egos then helping you out.
Try to hit up an outdoor field this summer, Clairington Woods and Flagswipe are both excellent fields, but you will need to find transportation to get there.
cheers!
