Welcome back! I've been to the Epsom tunnels a few times over the past few years - a blend of really great evenings there, and really bad evenings - with nothing really in between - a bit of a haphazard set up I suppose, with the attention of the staffing not really helping to maintain a...

100% - fewer people (to a point) are much better days. Case in point- driver wood had 120 players yesterday morning. Very congested game play, despite such a big playing area, and became attritional to the point that my choice of weaponry for the first game- 1j Kar 98 was a very significant...

A few rare photos that i recently tracked down of me back in April at Battlelakes:

I have put a 200mm in a tti kit before, but that took it up to dmr levels of power. I currently have a 150/160mm barrel in one, that I need to run on 85psi with hpa to stick at 1.1j. It cycles fine at that power. If you are wishing to run it on green gas, you may find that you could be a little...

There is also a free diemaco/c7 butt pad 3d printing file available on the net. I printed one in TPU, smoothed it with sand paper, and then gave it a quick gentle blast with the heat gun, and it looks+works fantastically.

I have a bottle of pure ethanol that I bought off ebay years ago that i use for those tasks. works well to dissolve sticky residue.

They are absolutely fine safety wise - I've been wearing them for years, and they are pretty much a staple for many of the players at the sites I visit. Shot multiple times on them, never a problem. Once they get a bit too dented, for good measure I replace for a new pair - usually after 10 or...

The airtac adapters work well, and if you are dead set on running it HPA, i would recommend their shotshell adapter. But really, if it is only to be run as a secondary, I'm really not sure what the benefits of HPA'ing it would be. The AAP runs better than most as a year round secondary on green...

Cracking day on Saturday at Battle Lakes, really good fun. Quite a big crowd in, and the rolling storylined game play of the DEA Vs Cartel theme worked excellently. Marshall's/team leaders had a few side quests up their sleeves to send teams off on in order to keep the play fluid and...

Excellent - see you there! I'll be in tiger stripe most likely.

Anyone heading to battle lakes this weekend (5th/6th September)? I'm just working out which day to head over....

As Asomodai says - Driver Wood

Our local site has a no nods rule for night games too - I believe the thinking is that allowing NODs makes it a pay to win type scenario, and no fun for the paying customers who don't have the cash to splash on a good set of NV or thermal. They haven’t always had the rule, but it was instigated...

I used your old reviews quite extensively a few years back when I was starting out - very helpful (and appreciated!)

Might be worth trying Battle Lakes for this. They offer free camping - not sure whether that’s the night before as well, but i suspect they can be flexible. Last time I went, there was a guy who had travelled from Derby, and I'm sure he didn't travel down before morning Chrono! Edited to say...
