    I lost the foregrip pin! And I know exactly where it is too, which is what's more embarrassing. I'm 99% sure I forgot to put it back in when I swapped batteries beside the chrono station... So I even know where it is to within 20cm :(

    Man, I should spec it up and get a few spares machined... Does anyone have access to machining equipment? Off to the troubleshooting thread with me, so.

    Well, that was easily the best weekend ever.

    So many thanks to dish out, I don't know where to begin.
    Thanks to Simon at IAS for letting me borrow his P90 mags, I would have been ****ed without them. Thanks to Defenderdude for bringing extra goggles for me, I would have been ****ed without them too!
    Thanks to Kevteljeur for the lift, to Motosam for letting me try out an M9 and the infinite repository of chairsoft knowledge.
    Thanks ofcourse to Mr & Mrs Maxforce for staging the event and making some great burgers.
    And thanks to the whole airsoft community, I have never met such a welcoming group of people. Shine on you crazy diamonds.

    My most memorable moments were getting hockied out of it by TDK, trying to capture half a manequin with Snipersight, & hunt the sniper with the IAS lads even though we didn't see any action, but it was fun.

    Great times.

    P.S. I have lots of pictures and they will follow soon, I just have to filter out the pictures of me posing with other peoples equipment first.

    I'd definately be up for heading up monthly/bi-monthly whatever! Be coming from Donegal during the summer though. Definately need to get my tactics up to an acceptable level, anywhere near TDK and I'd be laughing!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,295 ✭✭✭SniperSight


    trying to capture half a manequin with Snipersight,

    Ha, yeah... I lost my balance 2 feet from our zone doing criss-cross runs to get the manequin back, landed on the manequin and winded myself something fierce!!! But I got it back in the end.
    Good times.

    Cant wait to see yours and of course everyone elses pics and vids.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 11,001 ✭✭✭✭Masada


    those were some great games, the best was on sunday morning with the capture the flag game, the driving force in that game was the 2 small flanker teams sent either side if the main lane, major PWNage on the other team, :D(i hate tinternet speakage:rolleyes:)

    Well it would appear the thumb is not mightier then the sword, becaus once again we have worn it out.:D But a big thanks to ye all for the kind words. It is appreciated.

    Here are a few pics from my camera. I am having problems uploading them to G-TAC.eu but as soon as figure out what is wrong, I will transfere them over.
    For the moment the rest of the pics are located Here
    All the best,
    Martin.
    Edit. AGHH dont know why the photos wouldnt work but they are all on the picsaweb link anyway.

    TheGathering009.jpg

    Ahhhh theres me centre shot, the look on my face is one of confusion and being p*ssed off, because my gun originally chronoed hot, despite having no internal work done and previously chrnoing at .85J, bit of tinkering sorted it;)

    As someone else said Gandalf, I didn't take them so that I could look them away somewhere.
    Take what you want.

    Actually, on that note, everyone do me a favour and identify yourselves in these pictures.
    I know I got a few names and handshakes but there were so many people there...

    Never mind - I've ordered replacement parts from uncompany.com. No need to send my minions rummaging through the undergrowth for my missing parts, so! Funnily enough, I can see it missing in those photos...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,397 ✭✭✭Evolute

    I'm weak at the knees.

    In fairness though, now we all know his weakness if we're ever playing against him...just whip out your camera and let him get carried away.


    Infact, where the hell is Frosty?
    He had a camera attached to his head for the whole hour and a half skirmish on Sunday morning!
