    So, as kind of a 6 month update on a three year update, i thought i'd chime in...
     
    Martin has left now completely. He suffered some serious bereavement over xmas, losing his mum and his son.
    Which is s shit sandwich in anyones books.
     
    Jon has full control now and Dimitri (the mad russian) have been busy beavers. The village has been extended with extra structures and cover, the trenches have been redug, the safe are has lighting and the marshalls are on point. Which is all good.
    The toilet block is STILL coming but alas has not made an appearance yet. The hill is still a killer (and i'm not getting younger!!).
    The shop is getting bigger and the food is getting better each time i go, although the lunchtime queue can be a bit painful. 
    They've been trying to put on night games and Milsim type stuff, but i believe Jon has been uber busy sorting out the shops at several other sites.
    I still go on saturdays when i can as i usually have the boy and his "hangers on". Havent been on a sunday for a while.

    Any site that plays semi only but allows hpa spam at a faster rate than most stock ages on full auto are just stupid. Same with the sudden aversion to tri-shots or gas shells. I had a site the other day tell me no moscart's at close range. The old mosquito mould 180's that are probably older than some players. Where else are you supposed to use them? You could probably throw a hand full of ammo harder but no, that's over kill. 7 rounds to the face though at dead on the limit in semi auto... Rock on!
     
     
    I don't care about trigger spam, that's how they have set up the gun. If they want to use that then groovy. What I do care about is a level playing field. If they are going to do that then the opposing player should be able to light them the fuck up.

    It's really refreshing to see new slogans such as game changer being used in airsoft, I really can't think of a time where that has been used before I praise you for being the first 
     
    No wait 😂
     
    If you are a dealer, manufacturer or distributor and you've come here to the consumer, why the fuck are you keeping who you are supplying to a secret?
     
    Do you not know how business works?

    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.

    A logistical dilemma caused by the convergence of the last rehearsal before our 25th Birthday gig and the London Marathon means that I am spending tonight in a Premier Inn in Woking.

    However, every cloud has a silver lining, so this seemed like a good opportunity to spend the afternoon at Driver Wood, a site about which I have heard and read a lot but have never visited.

    So, this morning, in addition to my video mixer, projector, video loops etc, I loaded my airsoft gear into the car, including the lad's C7, which I had done some work on last Saturday evening as it seemed to have lost power. 

    Arriving at Driver Wood was a bit of a culture shock; there were paintballers, kids' parties, airsoft beginners' sessions and about 60 airsofters.  This actually seemed like a proper business!

    Checking in was straightforward; I got my wristband and I was in.  I found a table, chatted to the players on the next table, one of whom admired the C7, and chrono'd the C7 (1.04J and great range).  The safezone was well organised, clean and had WiFi!  The only negative aspect was a number of signs stating that no food or drink could be brought in.

    I then sorted my own stuff out, remembering to ensure that barrel socks were in use in the safezone, chrono'd my rifle and pistol, and set off for balancing of teams, distribution of us afternoon arrivals to teams and a mercifully short but complete safety and rules brief.

    Immediately after this, we set out for the game zone, passing various areas full of kids having great fun shooting paint and BBs at each other.

    The first game of the afternoon involved collecting a downed pilot, getting them on to a stretcher and transporting them to one of the helicopters.  Each side had a stretcher and, if the two players carrying it were killed, they had to drop it; the opposing team could then try to prevent them recovering it but could not steal it.  However, if the pilot was on it, they could transfer him to their stretcher if it could be brought alongside.

    I teamed up with a few players who decided to try to work around into the enemy's left flank and rear; this went rather well until we encountered an enemy force who had decided to try to work around into our right flank and rear.  This resulted in some great fights; I found a spot in a ditch under a bush from where I could control the convergence of two paths that the enemy were using; it was what WW2 U-Boat crews called a Happy Time; a target rich environment and a hidden Colin with a very accurate rifle.

    Ultimately, as for the U-Boat crews, the Happy Time ended and I was sunk.  Regenning, I encountered the two chaps from the table next to mine and we fought our own little war against a group of enemy who were continuing to try to push into our team's tactical rear, holding them off until the end of the game, which our side won, getting the stretcher and pilot into the helicopter after a stand off.  Hurrah!

    After a short break, we started the second game of the afternoon; a three point domination.  The targets were the green tent, the six wheeler and one of the helicopters; whoever controlled each of them at every 10 minute interval got a point .  I have no idea what happened at the six wheeler or the helicopter, as I was solely involved around the green tent, which the enemy grabbed at the start of the game.  This was a really good action, with people flanking all over the place, hiding in bushes, and generally popping up where they were least expected.  Despite us pushing hard, the enemy held the green tent for most of the game, with us only capturing it for the very last point.

    My first impressions of Driver Wood are positive, despite the signs about not bringing your own food and drink.  The playing area reminded me somewhat of Battle Lakes, albeit without that site's bottlenecks and choke points.

    I will definitely be going back.

    After the game, I stopped off at Surplus Store UK in Crawley, with the possible intention of buying a JG T3 SAS.  However, the size, or rather the lack of size, of its battery compartment, put me off.

    Armband watch: Bright green (I thought they were yellow!) and purple.

    Weapons used:

    SRC T-91
    ASG Commander XP18 (CO2)

    ...or, a seriously unqualified marketing VP at some Taiwanese toy gun dealership came up with some AI generated marketing campaign and thinks it is a good idea.

    Airsoft industry is like competing consumers' budget and time against the other entertainment industries, one of them is gaming.
    Gamers fond of shooting games incline to get a high reflash rate display to gain high frames per second, FPS, advantage.
    Now, same thing applies to modern AEGs  equipped with electronic trigger, ETU, and MOSFET, which exploit pre-cocking technology and switch gate protection from excessive current, enhancing trigger responsiveness and overall durability.
