  1. Goal- self explanatory for those that haven't been, for those that haven't try to get there, the hype is real I do like war zone, near Coventry, the days I have been its been good fun, the urban sprawl is fun to fight over (less so trying to break the tree line) But if we are talking of travelling - Thunder Park Cornwall, great site killer on the legs though, lots of fun, sword base is an excellent focal point. Filmsim at Gunman is something I would also highly encourage. And for those that have the option of being close to the m4, Red Alert. The marshal team and owners are amazing, site is varied, games are changeable. Lunch is hot and cookies from Vanillo add a touch of class.
  2. Custom House near the Excel, with the lad only being 11 l, there are limits on where we can go. Driver Wood for example is similar in travel costs but can take up to two hours if the trains don't align. Mayhem, Billericay and indeed plantation, are near double the cab fairs from station to site. The three other sites "close" by run weekly games, Dragons Lair, 2nd and 4th Sundays. The "smokes only" is imposed by the hotel, the land, is concise, although I'm not fully convinced another cqb area is what's needed (that's the current work in progress).
  3. My airsoft day, possibly the last of the year with the hopefully notable Santa vs Elves at RedAlret, was at the Dragons Lair. After getting a decent start to the prolonged journey (no c2c service from central out to the sticks) we managed to get to site early-ish (840) and started to bomb up, its quiet though, we normally arrive closer to 920 so thought maybe everyone does to. Nope Didn't happen Ray comes round and let's us know there is not enough players for the day. It's called and we all start packing up. So after spaffing the travel costs, I do look at transporting myself and the kid to Billericay but cabs being cabs, and our mood already sour we turned homeward. And played video games instead. It's frustrating, Dragons Lair has its faults sure, but its not a bad site, rules are strict in the safezone and enforced. They are putting work in to improve the games zone. It is also accessible from east london (on public transport), in ways Billericay and plantation are not.
  4. As a counter to the cringe of themed days: Santa vs elves at Red Alert.
  5. https://www.patrolbase.co.uk/battleaxe-200rnd-polymer-magazine-for-ar-15 I swear by these, only heavy when loaded..
  6. Not quite, its the other people (marshals/player/owner) that make airsofting the particular hobby it is
  7. "and our team had all the first time players and rentals." Add to that 1st time at site player and yeah, that's cringe. Marshals playing favourites; timmy, just ask them out, jesus, don't make it my problem. Can whole heartedly agree those mocking others is super cringe, but that mocking gear or gats, we all playing toy soldier, chill. The "why not rent till ukara" crew are in this as well. It's not the bright red you have a problem with as I saw you gushing over that abomination of a hpa aap1 like its the best you've seen, just elitist. Oh, man clique ops - been a while since I've seen it but yeah, that part/half of the team appearing and taking the last two kills of the game after "new to site" and rentals slog up a hill - especially- especially when, if they had pushed with the objective the game timer would have hit our favour. (Yes I play to "win" but mostly that's where the action is going to be) Sadly this is too often the case, they have 1 joke that made 2 regulars laugh and they made that thier whole personality. I would argue that marshals pointing to the players that caused items to be added to the safety brief is not cringe but a public service announcement of "people get hurt near this person for dumb reasons"
  8. Yeah, this makes the cut, also welcome to the show
  9. We just covered this, they black clearly has stability properties. Blue adds value And the red tape makes the bbs faster....
  10. Personally, I'm enjoying the resurgence of "optic on carry handle" that seems to be floating round
  11. @TheFull9 between this and the 80's para chest rig for sure. The mag poachs held 4 G3 style mags, one you can see acted as my pistol holster, so had two small pistol mags on the side pockets, main space carried speed loader and some smoke grenades. Only down side is the frag poachs are too lose for the mini smokes they use for poison gas. @Tackle yeah, build-a-bag is definitely in my future, but then, I have a bag..... I'll have to find an all day battlesim for the mishmash rig to push capacity.
  12. I know i said id try the mash up, but the reality for the short game format at Dragons Lair, its just not needed. So instead I took the grab bag - short sling so it sits chest/abdomen and boom, a load out.
  13. I'll take my phone out and get some upto date shots
  14. So not the new site then?
  15. Hi, I've been to the new site a couple of times now and its pros are: -how seriously they take thier safe zone rules, ever seen an owner chew out and ban someone for firing in the safe zone...? Friendliness of other players Steady site improvement Crono policy The cons? No bangs (they do have the hotel next door), to counter this, they do run a poison gas rule. The toilets, its porta loo, not serviced hotel The game zone itself is as Colin says outside cqb with some interesting woodland. So see you Sunday?
  16. Sure the price is wack, but the real crime are those 0.2s acting like they add to the value
  17. Glock in general! There are so many on the market i don't understand why the price hasn't collasped to the floor
  18. Welcome to the wonderful world of filmsim! And yeah, leaning into the larp factor of it really can build the emersion that a '1 hour shoot those guys' doesn't. They do hor cold war every 6 months or so and cold war quite often as well!
  19. The meth is good in Bexley at the moment
  20. The problem: i can't fit all my 7.62's in my viper rig when playing with my MC51. The solution: Mishmash pattern shinianigins (MPS) It's a 58 yolk ("repaired") with righthand (kidney) misc pouch, the pistol mag pouches will cover smokes and pistol mags, a triple and the black bottle pouch and side misc would be speed loader, water and any snacks and to finish out the load. It all fits well together, will feedback if I can get shooting again this summer!
  21. Fair enough, about the tidying, I though it was a repost due to the timings, hadn't realised the ad had been dragged so much after so recent a posting. Not supposed to look or sound like a witch hunt but it was a reasoned accusation. This is information that I didn't have, my understanding or gdpr is from a hospitality point of view and there for a touch more black and white.
  22. @BigAl Any particular reason this was relisted as a new listing cutting out the questions that were on the previous ad? Just wondered as you seem to have access to the ukara database without being a retailer, Or You are a retailer posting on a private sellers site ....
  23. Just seen the filing for Vulcan, they are going under, Driver wood complaining about parts
  24. Good shout with this, I've got one and really enjoy using it. I am a fan of the extended mags as well. Have fun and practice
