Yes they are quite common. Infact they can end up being much greater in my experience. I checked a gun with two different Chrono's at a site once and there was over 100fps difference. There can be many reasons for the difference in FPS reading, there could have been issues with the gun, or any...

32, I have found myself at loads of different sites, I would say the average player I come across is 20-35, Male and with a high enough income to justify expensive toys. There tends to be a bit of a cool down when things like kids, mortgages, wives and GF's get in the way, then it picks up again...

Gun bag for ......... normally can get my primary - M4, secondary L85A2 and Sniper - Bar10GSpec, plus at least 3 of my pistols. I use an Ikea blue bag for plate carrier, MiniMav and drop leg setup, I like choice when I am playing in how I carry stuff, unless I know its going to be very up close...

The sandpit have a ton of stuff, 2 snatch landrovers, a WMIK, the DAF truck, a RM snow trac, the 432 and some wheeled APC thing I can't remember the name of. Oh and don't forget Dora the explorer and the Quads which are mostly used by the marshals. There are also people who bring along their...

Not the first place in the UK to do this infact there were plans in the pipeline about 2 or 3 years ago to build something like this near Crawley I believe. I don't think it got off the ground. I've seen a small warehouse converted to make a really good airsoft arena, with 4 rows of "buildings"...

Holy necropost Sacarath! But I'll play along seeing as I didn't post first time round. Full day battlesim at the pit, we have been fighting a rolling battle all day from the far side towards the compound via where the FOB is. It's 11pm and pretty much pitch black, we have been tasked with...

My UKARA got recorded wrong on the outside of a package from Taiwan gun, it contained a rif and sailed through. Even had Taiwan Gun written repeatedly on the bright green tape all over the box.

Regular not exactly, I play Tuddenham mostly in the summer, think last year I managed about 4 or 5 games there in a row. It really depends on my wife's work, when she is away weekends I play, when she is home I don't normally. Last year I didn't play from Easter til August, what with a wedding...

Take your normal skirmish kit, obv. And a sense of humour, it probably wont be the best quality of play you have ever experienced but it is a laugh in its own right and the quantity of people is really something else. I would play fairly light if I was going again, the heaviest things would be...

I like the idea of the dead rags, I've just never got around to getting one. In a night game I was once at we used glowsticks in team colours to mark ourselves as dead. Worked really well!

I'm not in Essex so cant help with your driving problem and both of these sites are an hour either way (just a quick google using Colchester) but they might just help getting you started. Gunman Tuddenham and UCAP Sandpit Tuddenham is an hour from Norwich (where I am) and the pit is over...

I think the idea that "this could have happened anywhere" is a problematic one. I have to quote my dad here (wow this is a first for this forum) "accidents don't just happen!". He worked for an international outdoor education provider and would as part of his duties perform safety reviews of...

jcheese in addition the first mistake in this chain of small things that went wrong was "gun not unloaded correctly". If only one of these issues was dealt with correctly prior to the incident it never would have happened. For those who don't know there are several steps to clear a BASR and if...

It really isn't that hard to have a no dry firing or mags in the safe zone rule and therefore no requirement for people to wear EyePro in the safezone. The issue seems to be a series of basic safety rules waren't enforced in this situation and possibly one of the worst outcomes has resulted...

I will second a lot that has already been said, Some shelter in the safezone. Stocked with the simple items and consumables you would expect, pyro, gas, bbs, gloves, hats, eye and face protection. Toilet facilities. A small selection of snacks and drinks etc, if you want to offer lunch I would...

Or ........ and this might be a wild idea, actually approach a regular site owner with a venue idea. Gunman, did or possibly still are running an incentive to find new sites. If you suggest a site that they take up there was some kind of reward, £1000 pops into my head but I am probably wrong...

The limit at most sites as far as I am aware (and anyone else feel free to correct me) is 1J of energy at the muzzle for an automatic. Using 0.20g bb's which is the lowest mass and probably the most commonly used ammo for sites, some companies use this as a hard limit which calculates as 328fps...

You'll find the FPS will drop with use, and for a while the fps may be inconsistent due to the hop bedding in. However they clearly state on the website that the fps is 330 manufacturer quoted and they have "tested" it to 350. Did you skirmish the IF that day or did the site say no to its use...
