    Hi Lads,

    I've been asked about this several times, so I finally got around to organising the second young guns day:


    The Uprising - An under 18s operation at Fingal Airsoft
    "The next generation of airsoft!"

    Operation Uprising:
    • Date: 21st of Febuary
    • Location: Fingal Airsoft
    • Times: TBC
    • Objective: Fun
    • Requirements: Minimal
    • Rules: 13 -18 years inclusive


    Myself and Bren agree that this is a long overdue event. We held the 1st YG day months ago, and that had a very respectable turnout, lets do the same again time. All players from 13-18 inclusive should definitely try to be there. I'm in the process of talking to the YG teams, try and get them to come in force. That said, first timers are welcome, and we'd love to show you the ropes. I played with eight new players yesterday and it was one of the best days gaming I've seen in a long time. All you need is yourself, suitable clothing(see note), and your wallet:)

    The games:
    Lots of fast paced stuff, updates soon and suggestions welcome.

    Facilities:[/B
    ]- I'll be dloing quick repairs in the safe zone:)
    -Two Fast Food places within 30 seconds walk, and a Centra.

    Clothing:
    -Boots are heavily advised, see attached image.
    -Dark hoodies are good.
    -Gloves are a great idea, make sure you can still operate your gun though.
    -Leave the high street fashion behind, we cant guarantee you wont get a little dirty.
    -Avoid clothes that will chafe, you'll be moving alot.

    Rentals:
    -Update Soon.

    Transport:
    -Directions and map, link soon.
    -Train timetables, up soon.
    -Car Pool, info in next post.

    Lots of updates soon, and I'll be constantly adding to this.

    Thanks,
    Simon and Bren,
    PTP Cpt. and Fingal Site OP.

    You could get a train from Howth junction to Gormanston, I can then give you a lift from there to the site.:)
    We have bb's for sale on site and we insist on full face protection, we have mask's onsite too and we don't charge for the use of them.;);)

    Balaclava and googles count as full face?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,984 ✭✭✭FingalAirsoft

    I'll put it like this: Under 16 requires full face protection i.e. a mask, I've seen to many teeth get broken or chipped.
    Over 16 a balaclava and googles will suffice.
