 I didn't brag about wealth.
isn't um...telling us...about you owning all this stuff...and how expensive it is...and all that kind stuf...braggin about wealth? You need to THINK just a little bit before you post something. If you are supposedly as old as when you first came onto this board(which has chanced since then, thus showing us MORE dishonesty) you think that you would have more common sense than a doorknob, like checking a simple date. I *usually* do this before i post on ANY board i join.

      I personally think that you need to shut the hell up, ignore everything other people say, without being anal, and post something useful. If you cannot do this, you seriously need to leave. We have...in my opinion...never seen this much controversy over 1 person.


You do learn a lot about people this way, don't you?

Before you claim your 'out', 'gone', or done with this, and before you simply ignore me, I'm curious...will you be flying down here on a *gasps* commercial flight with *gasps* the 'lower classes' or will you fly down here on your Gulfstream 550?


I can't afford a private jet---I always fly economy class, its cheaper, then I can spend my money on more airsoft stuff.

Understandable.

So do you have any pics of gear or what?  I know you got a CIRAS vest or something cool...

It's a releaseable body armor vest issued to special operations units.

Given the type of weapons you have, I figured you'd have some gear to go with it.  What do you use at skirmishes?  Surely you have SOME sort of load bearing equipment.

I am also curious about the similarities between all your weapons.  Mostly Glocks and AR15 variants.  Are those the only weapons that hold interest for you, or are there more that we haven't seen?  

[if you haven't noticed I'm through badgering you.  At this point, not much is left to be said, so I'd like to move on to discussing your collection.]

I think it would be fun to shoot Dead with my bb gun, heheh.  

You know, one of these days I'm gonna make it to an AA game.  Don't take it personally that I haven't shown up to one yet but you guys are so damn far away.

Hell, EVERYONE is too far away from Needles.

Of course, that has it's good side and it's bad side.

Sarge, i dont think he skirmishes, I think he just collects. His guns are in WAY too good of condition. He'd have some scratches, at least. I can't keep my guns perfect.

Most of my friends have day jobs, are in their 30's and 40's; we do a lot night games because it's difficult to get everyone together on the weekends because of family  commitments. We've never attended an organized event or even played on a field.

We got permission from a school to use their facility after 8 p.m. (believe it or not...in Calif )---we do a lot of CQB.

We use only the basic tactical type vests used by LE. We dress really light and I play with only one AEG. An ICS m4A1 (after taking apart 10 or more of the ICS M4's, I got this one right where I want it)--they can be tempermental. I use the ICS because of the modular mechbox; I can change my upprer mechbox, ie. the sping in about 4 mins.

I went through a lot of guns; have owned all the ICS & Classic Army MP5's & CA33E but no snipers like the M24. I sold my last MP5A5 a week ago.

I'm a M4 fan. I try to find ways to make them shoot faster, harder, accurate, etc. And have modified a host of real steel components to fit these guns.

I bought the G&P SPR/A last month (killer rifle), and the SR25 this month. And built a SR47 this week.

You mean the #58Mod? Sorry, none of my real steel components are for sale at this time.

Of course if Dead could swing by and pick me up in his jet helicopter maybe I could make it this weekend.
