Yeah. Memories. Just have to dig out my pics of that now to show the nephews what a GOOD snowfall is all about.

i remember going from the sticks to town in an old mini cooper ,with 8ft high walls of snow either side of a one lane piece of road , the sheer terror only time ive felt clostrophic

NakedDex · 02-02-2009 6:52pm

Incidentally, for anyone who hasn't actually tried it yet, M203 filled with snow + fully gassed 204round grenade = hilarious snowball mortar.

Any chance of a vid for those of us without M203s. As the saying goes, pics or it didn't happen.

Dang. The one time it snows in any way decent, and I'm stuck in california sitting working outside on a bench in a tshirt. lol.

tonyj_mc · 02-02-2009 9:11pm

ah jeez, guess where 98% of people would rather be....

Thats right playing in the slush that we call snow

Not unless you have a magic way of turning my trusty Nikon F5 35mm film camera into a digital full motion video camera. Oh, and find film for me to use, because I'm all out and the roads around here are too clogged up with snow to safely drive to anywhere that does decent film.

CrazyRabbit · 02-02-2009 10:24pm

Anyone up for a game of manual airsoft using 6cm bb's? There's plenty of ammo on the ground outside. Perhaps we should call it snowsoft.

BTW, this is nothing in terms of snowfall. I remember back to somewhere around 1982/3 when we had several feet of snow. I recall opening the front door and snow which had piled about 4 foot high, collapsed into the hallway. Mum was not amused.

zero19 · 03-02-2009 2:20pm

I'm in galway and guess what? Not a sniff of snow...Wish i was home lol

zero19 · 03-02-2009 2:21pm

Got my new Sig today, quite happy with it

Oh and if anyones interested there's a used ACM Masada for sale on arnies, 200 sterling...

Ouch!, thats 25quid more expensive than it would cost to buy it new in Ireland. and then theres postage from over there.,

zero19 · 03-02-2009 2:34pm

Masada · 03-02-2009 2:40pm

Masada · 03-02-2009 2:46pm

What, you saw the other guy on the screen and then had at him with your M16 on a well-trained reflex?

To be honest, as a Hawk, you should have just bailed.

Masada · 05-02-2009 12:50pm

I saw this today and thought it was pretty funny, in a morbid kinda way.,

Its a trap made by the vietcong to catch american troops in. i had it explained to me in a mixture of vietnamese and sketchy english. When he told me it was a "Souvenir trap" i didnt think much of it, but then he explained the reason behind the name was, the soldier would walk on it and become impaled, trying to remove it would cause further injury so he had to bring it home with him to get it off, hence "Souvenir" trap.,lol

I dunno why but that cracks me up.,

Scary mother******

Masada · 05-02-2009 1:45pm

lol., thats only mild compared to the others I saw there., I just posted that one coz i found it hilarious.,:D

G3-Nut · 05-02-2009 2:04pm

i saw a trap before very similar to that one, it contained two trap door with spikes, and a hole underneath, when stepped on youre foot goes down the hole, and spikes stick into youre leg, only way out is yaking the whole thing back to camp

Masada · 05-02-2009 2:14pm

Like this one?

there was a load of them there on display and the soldier gave us a demo of how they worked and all., some very gruesome sh*t.,
the animal traps with the poison bamboo were mad looking in the flesh.,

OzCam · 05-02-2009 2:23pm

Richie, mate, you know I love you, but can you give us a warning or something before posting photos like that. Some of us have to avoid certain stuff, or suffer nightmares for the next three weeks. Please.

I thought it was fine, its a replica in a museam.

Masada · 05-02-2009 2:50pm

exactly rew.,

talk about being anal, man., theres more offending things all over this thread, pink M4's and the likes.....
Dont you build model german tanks Oz? jeez, that'd give me some nightmares, imagine all the innocents killed by your tanks....

OzCam · 05-02-2009 3:05pm

The picture itself is fine. It doesn't belong here.
There's no warning, or opportunity to avoid it.
As happens regularly on boards, more & more people will post photos trying to outdo it.
Airsoft is supposed to be a PG-13 forum, as mods have said regularly.
Posts with even partial nudity have been deleted and threadlocked before.
If others can object to cheesecake, I can object to mantraps.
I'm sure there's a horror forum somewhere, be my guest.

You can post whatever you like, just give people the chance to make an informed choice whether to look at it or not.

P.K · 05-02-2009 3:10pm

sorry we were under the impression this was an off topic thread,

and dont forget you dont have to look at every topic

Masada · 05-02-2009 3:28pm

ahh here, I think makin them tanks has rubbed off too many of the nazi ideals on ya Oz.,

this is airsoft after all and most airsofters would give an arm to see the history I've seen in the last couple of weeks.
theres nothing gruesome, sexual or inappropriate in the photo's. if this is the most offensive thing you've seen on here then you really need to get off the likes of bebo and discover theres a whole new world out there on the internet and its not all pretty with pink flashy bits..

anywayyy. this is a light hearted thread and not one for bickering as has been pointed out in the past.,

the report button I'm sure, would be more productive in future.,:)

Gizmodeon · 05-02-2009 3:39pm
