Also, where was it purchased, on here ?, if not, where ?

Lol, just watched it, stand by my earlier post, what a load of absolute bollocks🤣

The food & drink rule is disappointing, not everyone can eat the crap some sites churn out, nor should they have to shell out silly prices for essentials such as bottles of water. What were the options offered for food & drink ?

Not a necessity, but we have a lot of unknown entities joining & posting links in their threads, unfortunately more often than not their scammers etc, so as a community we try to look out for each other & raise awareness of possible risks. Don't take it personally, we just need to be diligent, anyone could join claiming to be xyz & use links that lead elsewhere.

To me, that all sounds like bollocks, hence why until someone reputable vouches for you, I'll trust you as far as I can throw you. Have a nice day 😏

Careful guys, not entirely convinced this new member is genuine, clicking the vid might be a trojan. @Jedi_Master ?

Lol, never mind the gnus, you can't even have your li-po's on site😞

Wanker gun 😜

#metoo👍😁

I used them a bit back when I worked in the square mile, so easy to jump on the tube at lunchtime & grab what I needed, plus at one point I was getting trade discount there via a site owner/teammate, which was nice😁 BUT On ALMOST every occasion I visited I found staff, including the owner, to be arrogant, borderline rude, & very much up themselves. Only reason I went there as often as I did was because: 1. I was getting very good prices 2. It was local, & being an old fart I hadn't fully embraced buying on the net, needed to "feel" the kit. But once the discount had ended & I'd stopped working in london, not felt the need to even consider them for online shopping.

Lol, I'd prob press the wrong button & livestream that shit🤣

Thanks, I'd always heard they were shit, didn't know they'd improved a bit, & now they're shit again. Never considered making the trek to twa, definitely off the radar now, that Marshalling is appalling, its amazing that it's lasted as long as it has considering its rep.

Lol, talk about triggered, he's closed it down and started another thread & the price has gone up £100 ffs🤣. And another one has come on for even more, £850 this time, the world's gone mad🤪

No hi-capa is worth £700, no matter how much the seller has been silly enough to throw at it, especially as the original straight out of the box TM variants are superb on almost every level, anything added is usually just prettying them up, bit like a girl with her favourite dolly 😜

Unfortunately Pat, your experiencing the phenomenon we affectionately know as "SODS LAW", in airsoft it means when it comes to facepro, all shots will hit where the protection ends, usually ears or Adams apple, a particular choker, alternatively you could go minimalist eyepro like I do, glasses or goggles, & you will be immediately blessed with hero status, never to be hit in the face again............. Or at least until the game before a big job interview/wedding/family get together, at which points "SODS LAW" steps up & says "hey buddy, thought you'd got rid of me😈" , & you end up looking like you've got the worse case of teenage acne ever, even if you are 47🤣

Another very good point, OP's initial post reads like a young man who's vulnerable, & a mum who's understandably protective, hence most of our replies, but if he's managed to get to 34 without being hit by a bus or other heinous accidents, he's doing something right. The point @Pseudotectonic about eyepro fogging etc is also very relevant, most of us struggle if it happens, partially losing a sense, imagine it happening with no hearing too, maybe a good dye mask or one of those fencing style mesh masks are an option. Yeah I know some don't like the mesh kit, but I've been using it for years without an issue, my eyes are fine, everything else is fooked but my eyes are ok 🤒

You gotta see it from Shamals point of view, his sis doesn't want her son to go, & God forbid a hair on his head is harmed, Shamal won't hear the last of it, & the guys are just trying to cover all the bases , after all, don't think any of us have ever come across a profoundly deaf player, it's a pretty unique situation.

Or you could do what I threatened my son with, if he starts running off all Sgt Elias, or you just need to get his attention, quick buzz on a shock collar would do the trick, they can be set just to vibrate, or if he still doesn't respond, turn up the voltage & take him down like Frank The Tank 😜 (Too much too soon😏)

@JinxDuh made a great point, get together some friends for a private game, maybe a smaller site or only part of your usual site, & whoever can sign the best shadow him 100% for the day. Gives him a good taster & you can judge how he'd cope on a larger scale ?
