You were missed.

Another good meeting to-day. No pics this time though, had no time dodging those damn BB's. Unfortunately the Porta cabin guy let me down but the weather was good. So Porta cabin Guy, if you are here on Boards please deliver my Porta cabin to me :D Am hoping to have it delivered this week. Will keep you all posted. The next meeting will be Sunday 11th November. So clean off your kit guys and gals, charge your batteries and fill your mags.
Thanks,
Martin.

Hi All,
For this to work we will need 20+ names. There is a large field there to camp in. The land owner has even said for a small fee he will do breakfast (rolls) and chips and burgers, sausages etc for the evening. So get your names down and more information will follow.

DOGMA

thanks for the quick reply maxforce delighted when i heard about new site only an hour from where i live usually travel to dublin to play but 6 hours in car is a complete pain in the ass,should have no trouble finding site with your directions,best of luck with your site,cant wait to skirmish the pics look great.

reaper7

Cheers MaxForce for a great day out. Will definetly be back.
Showed the spetnaz to my friend as he is impressed, can you confirm the
magazine bb qty and the Joule rating for AEG.
Box says 38 rnds and .86 joules?

That would be the standered mag but these ones ship with a hi cap which is 200rds. They also come with a small bag of 200 BB's which just about fits into the mag. About .86 to 1 joule max would be about right. As soon as I get the chrono I ordered from RSOV, I will test one of the ones I have and let you know.

Glad you had fun on Sunday.:D

[--SC(+)PE--]

Looking forward to this weekend, finally got me holsters sorted and i might have me mp7 up and running aswell .
so who's planning on going?

reaper7

Hi Maxforce, you can put me down for 2 of the rentals this week.
Will try and work up some more participants.

Hi rbd. The site wont be open on the 16th but it will be on the 17th. At the moment I have 4 rental guns available and none of those are booked for the 17th. The rental guns are €45 for the day and include 400 rds. It should be a good day as there are a few coming up from Nenagh as well. The mas is fine but at the moment I do not have any masks to go with the rental guns but have 1 pair of mesh goggles so your friends would need to bring eye protection with them. Its looking at the moment that there should be about 7 upwards. Am hoping there will be more on the day.
Thanks for getting in touch,
Martin.

Cool!
One thing, change the background, its a bit plain, something like digi camo pattern or the like.

Hey Genghiz, yeah tried a camo pattern but found it hard to find a font color that coud be seen through all the diffrent shades and wasnt to eye blasting so settled on that. But it is a job in progress. Tks buddy.

ED E

Very good for a first time. Front page?


I dissagree with Genghiz on the background. Loads of sites have DPM ect but it makes all the text much harder to read, unless you put in module backgrounds of something more plain.

I'd say put a camo border with nav bar, header and footer and leave the main bg as it is.


Good job,
Lethal

UPDATE: got in a split second before me

MaxForce

Hi All,
Another great day on Sunday. I had to leave early due to work but thanks to Scope for keeping the ball rolling. Next meeting is on Saturday 17th and promises to be a great day with a good few people set to arrive. If anyone is looking for rentals please let me know as there are only 4.
Many Thanks,
