There's nothing brief about it, its a large article and its all positive.

N.O.I.P.

Picked up a copy on my way home. It was surprisingly long and nothing but positive. There were 1 or 2 little factual errors but for the most part it was spot on. Easons on O'Connell Street still have a few copies left.

Lets not point out the little errors, and enjoy the article as a whole;)

N.O.I.P.

Sorry wasn't my intention that was supposed to read more like "Gentlemen ignore the teeny weeny factual errors behind the curtain, I am the great and powerful oz, err I mean the article rocks"

No problem, but you know that some people thrive on criticism and then that kills the good stuff.

N.O.I.P.

Yeah happens far too often.

So I have to know, how long did it take you guys to pose that "What theres a camera in the store" oh so nonchalant picture

iceage

aaww got to see that pic!

N.O.I.P.

If its not up before hand I'll scan the article. I'll PM you the pic since I don't have permission from the people n the photo to post it on line.


(Actually if anyone does scan it before me, blank out the pics until we have permission just to be on the safe side)

Cheeky monkey

I really doubt your gonna get sewed because you posted it tbh I don't think he had anyone permission to take a picture of them

BFSL

it is already in a public mag, so it should be ok

N.O.I.P.

Jeez that would be a big needle and thread I know I'd probably be ok but we had a big topic about this early last year and I'd prefer to err on the side of caution.

Gyle

great article, don't think anyone in the article has any problems with the scan.I think its going to be busy year for irish airsoft.

Gyle

well done M.I.A and H.R.T.A for showing great face:D

Besides, since the pictures are of us guys, I don't think anyone will mind.

Masada

only the photographer/photo copyright owner/magazine can object to the scanning of it, i doubt they will but we as players on the day have no grounds to complain about him taking our pics if he was invited onto the land and was not advised against taking photos., at least thats the way i understand it., photography is a hobby of mine.,

N.O.I.P.

Right I left the pictures intact. Enjoy.

lads, as we all know, those of us wishing to wear irish dpm camo simply cannot, however the french dpm is almost identical

Masada

kdouglas

Google what Irsh DPM looks like and take another closer look... The very first pics is a guy in Irish DPM combats and smock. There another 1 or 2 in the other pics.

Masada

the first "looks" like it but not a great photo, also it kinda looks like a file photo to me, I never saw that fella there with all the camo paint on his face and the helmet and everything., the photo is a completely different style to the rest really.,

Witcher

lads there was a discussion on this in the drogheda thread and kd read us

the riot act (rightly so). id advise against throwing this thread off topic

too, there is 3 days bans being handed out, i narrowly avoided one myself for

posting after he said he didnt want to hear it anymore, i was so afraid i

removed the post! (he scares me) :eek:





:cool::cool::cool:

Masada

lol., rightly so ., dont be so pickey everyone and just enjoy the first real positive article instead of looking for something to gripe about.,

Gah,

The download, both of them, are not working for my version of ms word, f*ckin ****e.
Any way could someone email me jpegs or post another version somewhere?

The worst part is the first page worked, got me hooked, then nothing.
And I downloaded it twice.

Masada

the scans arnt really a good quality, the writing is too small to read., unless im a blind fu*ker?.,
