If you can get to their store, even better arranging a visit next weekend hopefully

i'll go take a look on the site again!.....a few ive been keeping my eye on, just wasnt sure on ICS, which is good everyone has their opinion and their favourite. i do like the idea of easy swap outs though....still all new to me tbh i was tempted by the new G&G range http://www.zerooneairsoft.com/product_info.php?products_id=4419&osCsid=9972eb8de61cb4e885790a826beefa8f but ive time on my side to chat to players and can get it delivered to urban by FFZ if im lucky! like the easy maintain bit as well as i'll prob not have time!

ooh i hate you guys!!....haha

so in basic terms.....is it easy to swap out then, most site i have in mind will be no more than 345... oooh im tempted now...

interesting read and some great links!, hopefully some other newbs will review! Must remember this thread though!!! at moment i have mesh googles and half face mask, but glasses are only used for reading/computer work. Did find mesh though kinda obscured my vision a bit so tempted to go to goggles so i have a clearer view, then have the fogging worry, i sweat more than a kid in a sweet shop at times, so not sure!.... Tempted though to try goggles with prescription inserts, might just help my tired eyes during the games*. I guess its worth a try *tired eyes due to work, no rest and no play.....oh an kids....Mars need to sort their slogan out!

ooooh very nice, i was looking at that and a few others in Tan for when i call Frank and get my first order placed for my 3rd game! still looking at the basic newbie G&G raider though.....but got time let me know how you get on

name and shame???

as she got an oven....ive added a MTP smock, new rigger type belt and a coyote camelback** to arrive Monday to the collection..... should all get used....even to dress up with the kids at home....daughter as a princess/fairy. son as batman/power ranger, dad as a wally in camo!! **will fill it with hot chocolate for the winter games!

*sits here impatiently waiting for time to fly for update!* great update to gear, you never know, when the time comes, i may do the same....as long as you have wide screen monitors! Will have a more in-depth look at pics at home, work not really ideal sometimes! (damn you wife for saying ive put some on!)

good back on topic and away from cars of the past!!.....i miss my mark 2 Golf GTi!

for me recently.... a new oven...keeps her happy and kids fed for me some blanking patches viper snood in multimtpcamogromcam pack of helikon knee pads, more for the cutting guide really after use! Helikon t-shirt in coyote, saves me wearing my day to day ones!

yeah my first game was 11th July, was told 11th Sep for UKARA which is as you say, 2 months from 1st game....well past that now by the time i get my 2nd done

see that's a good point, i was chatting to someone the other day who said lipos can be dangerous and can catch fire if not treated correctly....so made me think about batteries when the time comes!

and i still have all this to come! thank god its posted now....of course i'll still be confused come the time! Is this a general thing or does it really change on person to person, as in could we have a simple battery guide topic for new starters?....or have i missed it?

i could bring her along, just say we are going shopping and then do a runner!, there is a kids play area as well so they will be fine haha in fact, im gonna look at dates and speak to my brother and some friends, get a few newbies (+ a few games) for you guys to shoot!

just googled the place, is it really that big!? i must get there and play! will have to be real nice to the wife....only a few hours by car!

oooh could easily carry that around!..... now i need an umbrella and drinks table!

mmmmmm....dribble! haha do they do cheap ovens!.....long story!

aaaarh good idea....never thougth of that! just need to obtain one, need to pop in to outlaws and see whats in their garage i think! i'll get that bluepeter badge! haha rather not spend any more money as wife will kill me!, Oven decided to die so thats gonna push my first AEG to another month

Hi guys, i guess a few of you wear knee pads for a lot of the sites. I found my old volleyball pads, and they will do for my next game, unless any one can recommend any? but, my Helikon trousers (and i know others brands do to) have the insert for knee pads I looked at the Helikon ones on-line, they need to be cut as i have SFU trousers but only seem to be 6mm neoprene. Are there any special requirements or recommendations to this or can i just go but a load of neoprene from amazon and cut to suit? anyone made DIY pads??

haha! yeah i checked the size guide again now, as its in my desk draw, still come up as XL ,dead on, not going to worry to much, whats a thumb between friends!

could be, wish there was a shop nearby to try on, im sure it will be fine, i like the tight fitting on the fingers, sort of hugging as it allows a better touchy feely type thing....ok i'll stop there! just curious how others get on dont worry, 2 weeks time it will be first AEG and battery suggestions.....Raider a mo.....or G36....

guys, quick one,....bit of a silly question really! I have some Viper gloves, just general ones but fit ok, cant complain, in XL ive just got some Mechanix M-pact gloves. Used the size chart online to be sure etc., came up as XL Now they fit fine on the fingers, feel 'tight' not lose around fingers which is good i guess for better feel of things but top of thumb seems to be floppy Not sure if i should send them back for a size bigger or smaller size, as in should the thumb be a better fit? don't want to keep posting back and fourth tbh if i can help it Do other makes come up like this with some people or is it just the cut of glove, hands etc and not worth worrying about p.s i do expect the stretch thumb, cut thumb type answers!!! haha
