And I can see why there is complaints about firing/dry firing in the parking lot. Come on... you don't see paintballers doing that do you? Is that sarcasm? Yeah paintball players do it. But we do our best to get on theri cases too. Mostly if they are shooting, its into their muzzle spikers anyway. i assume when some of you are referring t MP5's, you mean the version with the silencer. Like I stated, there is a larger version sold to accomodate the A5 flatline. The A5 is designed to look like and MP5, and the flatline barrel is made to look like a silencer. Best bet is to call around to paintball stores to see what they have. The gas can rule is preventive. The same reason bulk cylinders must be tied down when in transit on the highway. We want your air tanks secured where they are not gonna bang around and rupture.

I believe boba is being serious, that dry firing and a general lack of firing discipline are problems for airsofters.

not to me, I agree with boba, more often then not i hear paintballer just shooting their guns at random. They may not be loaded, but at the same time, neither are ours.

Actually, I am serious. Thus far, I have yet to see paintballers mulling in the lot firing. And I don't mean the occasional, yup, battery's charged, it still works after the drive here shooting. I see dry firing, in fulll auto, regularly in the lot, multiple times, by many people. Psychosis is right on. I don't see any need to fire beyond maybe two or three dry fires to check the battery/make sure nothing broke on the trip there... and that's pushing it. {EL Edit- +2 for Boba for such a level head

..................... I don't see any need to fire beyond maybe two or three dry fires to check the battery/make sure nothing broke on the trip there... and that's pushing it. If you REALLY need to do a live fire test, just go to the chrono station and fire at the tackling dummies hanging thare. Just remeber, goggles required in the chrono area (aka shooting gallery) As for the windshield money, it more than likely wont be refunded. The problem has been isolated by the mods and planners. were all just going tho have to suck it up and deal with it as "one asshole ruins it for all of us.

I figured the planners had taken care of that, and proven we didnt do anything.

Don't worry about the Windshield. I talked to James while we were working on the field yesterday and you will be bck to staging by the barn next time you come out. Please keep an eye on any pick-ups or walkons from the area.
