Nonex, I have access to a Handheld Garmin GPS but it costs around twice as much an AEG. I'll see if I can get up next weekend and if my dad will let me use it.

Thats not so much that you need a GPS though. Big theme/scenario games sound like good craic though. I read about the night one there running up north and it sounds like a great laugh.

Evolute

yeh but its tricky becuase some of the land you cant use and Nonex is trying to make it as realistic as possible

you do know that there is a proper military spec gps out there and that the ones for cars are very fragile. trust me i work for a company that sell them. any little knock or tap can make them fubar:cool:

kdouglas

yup, but military spec == $$$

I am hoping to get to HRTA this weekend but won't know till late Friday

brokenarrow

Me too. Im definately going Saturday. bringing my new m4, usp and g-spec with scope so hopefully the weather will be good for an outdoor game. might try bring a friend too to boost numbers.

kdouglas

fingers crossed the parts for my mp5 arrive in time, they're on the way from HK as we speak...


ill still be going though, just renting if they dont arrive

Rew

If turn up around 2 or 3 on Saturday (im stuck playing with real guns till about then) would it be possible to have a look at the setup and airsoft guns? Ill happily pay the walk on etc if there is gear available when I get there.

Weather is to be fantastic all weekend BTW.

kdouglas

shouldnt be a problem id imagine, you can come and play for the afternoon and i _think_ there is a half-day price aswell

even if you wanted to come down and look around, most people are happy enough to talk to someone who has an interest etc...

liamo333

Will proably be there,well hopefully:)

chalky

Yup, I'll be there. Need to try out the new M4.

Anyone know how to fix a hi-cap mag by the way?

Hello All,

I think I will be heading out on Saturday. Im a long time lurker here and have finally gotten an AEG so I reckon its time to break my cherry!
So if you see some newbie getting shot left right and centre its probably me...

Since it's CQB, you can expect to get shot from a lot more directions that that....just like the rest of us.

He hasn't managed to get out of that straightjacket yet. Just give him another week or two.

CrazyRabbit

So, are we doing the usual and meeting up at the spire, or shall we all just make our own way out to HRTA?

Say, 8:30am at the spire?...and grab the 9am bus?

Damnit!! eh, that doesn't mean me!

Mag isn't winding properly. Too lazy to explain the details here.

brokenarrow

everyone hides behind you chalky. not so much the biggest aeg anymore now you got that m4 instead of the m14

chalky

instead? I'll be using them both, Rambo Style!!!!

Is there many talking about Sunday. Cannot make Saturday. Need to try out the Sig and Glock 18C

kdouglas

as far as i know, sunday tends to be quiet, and given that it's easter sunday, alot of people will likely be spending the day at home i'd say...

ill probably be there next saturday again though, ordered some stuff last weekend and hoped it would be here for this week, but hasnt arrived so ill probably be out testing it again next week, i think scope and someone else mentioned they would be there next saturday too..

thecivvie

Cannot make saturdays due to work

kdouglas

ill be along a bit late tomorrow, probably not until about 11.30/12
