indeed, i do not understand people with multiple ar platform guns, they're fundamentally the same at the end of the day.

same applies for glocks, "check out my new glock 465, it's exactly the same as every other glock out there but the grip is 2mm shorter and that makes it so much better for concealed carry"

That could be said for any RIF though

Ever thought about mag/spares compatibility?

If I want another gun it's probably gonna be another AR since I already have a couple of rails and stocks, 6 midcaps and around 10 high caps for it :P  also vests and pouches mostly come in stanag size (at least here in pizza land)

 
Players that don't take hits,

Marshals that don't marshal.

Poor safety briefings particularly for noobs.

Hot guns that have cheated chrono.

Poor facilities drinks, food toilets.

Trip hazards, logs , brambles.

Lots of things piss me off but I love to play & attacking games are best when the teams are equal.

 
Lunch hour.
I mean, seriously, wtf? How long does it take to get some scran down yer gullet and get back to the pewpew?
One sixth of the game day lost to lunch is ridickerous.




Playing devils advocate here...

Lunch can sometimes be an hour at our site due to the following;

  • Lots of people to ensure get their lunch
  • Marshals need time to iron out any issues with rentals etc
  • bit of chill time if players have been out on long games all morning OR its a warm day (granted we are moving into the colder months now
  • break for marshals - our site we are there easily an hour before anyone else setting up getting chairs out, sorting rental guns (all so everyone can have a quick(ish) start to the day and be comfortable whatever the weather)
  • 80+ acres is a big site to marshal (yes we don't use it all at once) but unlike some players we are constantly on the move so a break to sit down and sort ourselves out is a welcome added (not forgetting while some marshals are paid some arnt and like everyone else that comes down to site we all work through the week and give up our time (paid or not) to ensure you as a player have a good day
Lunches arnt always an hour but chances are if they are that long there may be a reason behind it (cant speak for your chosen site) but again some players welcome the break from playing to have a sit and natter.

Cross compatibility is fine and lets be honest , internally most AEG,s are based on the same platform, but they don't have to look like a generic m4 . My SCAR takes stanags so does the XR5 at a pinch but they are not M4's , and there will be plenty of others, even a G36 can have a mag well swap to take them. I tend to run with 2 full hi caps and a bag of bb's which covers me even for long games so having a couple of mags for each gun isn't an issue .

 
Another positive gripe " Krytac " promise so much deliver so little on Time ^_^

 
Another one, those young players who find it highly amusing to shoot and empty their mags when walking back to the safe zone. Especially when they see a puddle

Does make nice bubbles thou  :D

Rather they did that than empty them into each other within MED at the end of the day... 

 
The fact that I am not twenty years younger, so I would have an extra twenty years of game play

It depends on point of view, and context

It may be banter, it may be hate

But user experience varies

If the MilSim/speed softers/casuals/rentals you meet once are dicks then that rubs off to others in general 


I meet a lot of skirmishers i dont particular agree with or get on with and yet don’t tarnish them all with same brush! 

Feel like some people need to grow up a bit and see that’s we all shoot eachother with plastic! Goes for everyone?
