and just a general question, would one battery do me the day? and how much BB's would the average person use in a day?

I've managed to use 3 batteries in one day and over 6000 bb's.

I wouldn't go with just one battery. They don't last as long as you would hope.

However those who can shoot usually get away with 1 battery (a spare in case of failure) and about 3000 BBs.
It's an AEG, not a firehose.

Please, just for me, avoid 'text speak'. It's hard to read, annoys most people and makes one look like a moron.
Now that's out of the way;
Warm clothes. More layers of clothing is better than heavy stuff. It's going to be cold, windy and damp. It's January in Ireland. Count on it. Plus you can always take layers off if it's too warm. After that, what it looks like really dosn't matter.

Waterproof shoes. When your feet are dry all is good with the world.

Lunch. You are going to be miles away from the nearest food. Include liquids. Just because the weather is cold dosn't me you will be.

Depends really, sometimes you can go through an insane amount of ammo if you're engaging at long range or suppressing a lot. Given that Rabbit carries a long rifle that sort of ammo usage every once in a while wouldn't surprise me.

How is the parking down there these days since we stopped parking on the field?

Last time I was down there cars were all over the place! Bit of a pain getting out, and in for that matter!:)

NakedHedgehog

Parking was fine on Saturday. I just didn't realize that it was further up the road than the entrance to the field.

A sign (even in the parking lot visible from the street) saying "HRTA" would be nice. I drove by it the first time and it looked like some farmer's drive.

Masada

theres a cone at the grassey entrance, you not supposed to park in there, you just go past it and theres a gravel path where ya park.,

There's no cone. Just two wooden wheels saying "Private".
Almost got my car stuck in it and I had to throw out my runners after stepping into something most foul.

Conkey

Yeah the gravel path is what I am talking about. It was chaos last time. No real organization to it. Nearly ripped off me bumper getting out!:p

Maybe Paul has move the hovercraft and the other stuff up to the field now and there is more space.?

NakedHedgehog

Yeah, I didn't see anything but visitors cars there. The hovercraft is near the safezone now.

Crave

any chance some people can post pics of hrta, as i haven't been there in a while now and want to see what improvements have been made.

Arcto

hovercraft ? What the hell dd i miss?
