    hello everyone !

    as some of you will remember im the frenchy guy who spent 2 months in Dublin last summer

    and now i'm back again ! well, i'll be landing at Dublin airport today at 11pm

    sorry i gave no news when i got away, i was really busy with school and work etc

    i have great memories of all the good fun at hrta, friendly people (thanks to kdouglas, my favourite taxi driver) friendly weather (i love rain)

    so yeah i couldn't help it and i'm coming back, and i'll stay some more this time - until end of september!

    can anyone sum up what i missed in one year of airsofting in Ireland ?


    looking forward to meet you all (again) and throw bb's at each other !

    welcome back davvowl youve missed a good bit of airsoft's expansion here,

    hmmmm what happened with the gloves:):)


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,414 ✭✭✭kdouglas


    welcome back man, need a lift from the airport? :p


  • Registered Users Posts: 36,166 ✭✭✭✭ED E


    Sum up....Well, a lot has happened. We now have a ton of sites(HRTA, GTAC, Fingal, Gorse Hill, SAC, SAS...) and retailers(Eirsoft,MIA, IAS,Go Tactical, Airsofteire, CorkAirsoft...). Numbers are also really on the rise and we've had a "Gathering" at G-Tac which was a great success. Another one is planned for July. Also, we hope to play an Event in Predator in Belfast in August(1st-3rd). Thats a rough summary.

    there are a few shops where you still can find them, like polimil.co.uk or asmc.de

    @kdoublas : are you serious about this lift offer ? would be MUCH MUCH appreciated... but as i said, plane lands at 11PM
    oh and i'll be living at the same place, just in front of christ church cathedral, remember ? :p

    @lethal bullet : its impressive how fast airsoft expanded in just one year, can't wait to see that !

    @lemmings/nakedDex : thanks ;)

    They have 3 BDUs now! On that note. There are a hell of a lot of teams now. If crazy rabbit would be so kind as to link his list you'll see.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 306 ✭✭davvowl


    that would be Multicam, ICU, and... ? :p

    Happy to oblige. There are now more teams than players I think...

    Welcome back Dav, I think I remember playing with ya a few times.

    @Crazy, just looked at your list of teams there, I'd like to clear up some errors relating to the Contractors, we do have a website, check out my sig, it needs a bit of touching up but it's still a website. Also, junior team? The Raptors? Eh? Never heard anything about us having a junior team.


  • Registered Users Posts: 26,458 ✭✭✭✭gandalf


    Ah I seem to remember this was you.

    1388485112_3f2a27e175.jpg

    Hey man,
    Welcome back.
    Remember playing with you a few times in old HRTA.
    Looking forward to shooting you again!

    I've updated the post with your website link....It didn't exist at the time the team was added.

    Also, regarding the Raptors, check this out:

    Hmmm, looks like it's another case of me needing to pay more attention. Cheers for adding the website. Seeing as your list seems to be the definitive list of teams in the country it's in our interest to help ya keep it up to date.

    IM IN DUBLIN, WOOOHOOOO.
    i just arrived yesterday with some of my stuff (bdu, cap, gloves)
    the rest will come later, in a week or two

    ok so there is some magpul addictness in there. that's a good thing :)
    my UBR should arrive by the end of this month. (this means ill sell my like-new CTR to whoever wants it)
    its very limited supplies since the first batch only comes in a few weeks
    price should (will) be over 200 euro, but yeah, this thing has written PURE SEKS all over it.
    if you positively WANT one, i can maybe (maybe!) arrange something

    and yeah i played quite a few times at what you call "old hrta"
    i've only been once to "new hrta", it was the very first time anybody went there and it was late evening so we didn't even play ;(

    so, back to SERIOUS business. is there any airsofting going on this weekend ?

    edit: and yes, that's me on the picture :D

    There shall be some '60 action at HRTA this weekend. I am now the proud owner of 40,000 rounds of bbs and they have Gandalf's name on them ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 306 ✭✭davvowl


    sounds great !
    no idea where it takes place though, anyone care to pick me up ?
    im in dublin, near christ church cathedral :)
    keith maybe ? :p


  • Registered Users Posts: 36,166 ✭✭✭✭ED E


    Yeah, you'll need a car/lift to get there.

    Another option is the new site in fingal(On the dublin meath border). Train leave connoly station(Walking distance) at 8:01 and arrives in gormanstown for 8:45. Bren has offered to pick up from there but you must organise in advance.

    Dont think gorse is open this sunday, :(

    I think Paul/Nonex has a bus now and transports players from Swords Village to the site. Not sure on times (or price) though, you'd have to ring and ask him.
