we can go to the pubs in duncannon that weekend in our loadouts ( minus aegs / gbb obviously ) and no one would bat an eye.could be a great laugh. we can bring the "cork airsoft tent" (tm) - so plenty of room to crash out.

So far, I've organised the previous 3 beers nights, but there is nothing stopping anyone else from organising the next one. I've been meaning to do one for a while but just haven't gotten around to it.

Even if it's not a "boards beers" there's usually a few drinks had in the evening at these type of events.

The weather was great at last years Dungannon! It was about 25c most of the time. It only rained once, although it was an extremly heavy downpour that lasted 10 mins.

It only felt cold during the night skirmish.

As for the pubs in Dungannon, there is one about 150feet from the fort and many airsofters were walking around in full gear (including AEG's on occasion) without any hassle. The entire town knew about the show and didn't bat an eyelid when they seen the AEG's.

It's a very friendly town, with great locals.

horgan_p

ok sounds like a plan then.


Venue : Duncannon - bar to be decided
After party : Cork airsoft tent (tm)
Night : fri/sat/sun day night.

how dare you generalize us in such a way, when you frequent the forum where their guns kill people....

Being tarned with the one brush aint nice huh..

Rhinocharge

So whom is up for inspections of the local speakeasys??

But you have just done it!

Would you say that carrying loaded Airsoft guns into the safe zone was good safety behaviour? Would you say that pulling the trigger on a loaded airsoft gun on someone else's gun, while he was holding it in the safe zone was good behaviour?

If you whitnessed that (and i sure didnt se anytihng of the like), then its up to you to make a complaint, not to just say "airsofters" were misbehaving.

Its also worth noting for those of you who are outsiders and not related to the sport or this forum, that there were a number of people flogging cheapo "airsoft" cr@p at last years show, who certainly were not airsofters. so i would presume these would be the people you are objecting to the behavior of.

tireur

Your assumptions on all counts are wrong. The people acting in an unsafe manner were regular airsofters well known to this forum. Also, the demonstrations in the moat were unsafe and spectators were hit by pellets.My initial post was more by way of a reminder about safe behaviour than a complaint about last year. As most of this thread is about "where to drink" such a reminder is appropriate don't you think?

Dutifully noted & thank you.

Lacertus

haha ye saw loads a people running for there lives from the massive wall of deadly bbs being fired at them

MAD Ozzie

Oh I remember that, some lad shot him self or someone pulled the trigger when his hand was over the business end! I heard the yelling.
Your right, safety is most important!
But I also remember someone giving out to one of the girls about it, and upsetting her!! (Someone it had nothing to do with) So a bit of BAD behaviour on both sides.
As he did not have the balls to say it to the lads involved! Would have been the best thing to do at the time, but it does not hert to remind people the values of safety.

So yes, Dutifully noted and time to move on.




Now lets have a great weekend!!

Please do not make sweeping generalisations like this.

If you had a problem with someone's behaviour last year you should have reported it to the organisers there and then.

Back on topic please people
