Airsoft in the Gazette...Again!

    In today's Gazette newspaper, you should be able to find another pullout section on Airsoft.
    Given the unprecedented success of the Irish Airsoft Association's recent Airsoft pullout in the Gazette, follow-up articles were to be expected. However we never could have imagined the level of uptake the original pullout caused.

    This is a fantastic testament to the fact that we are now able to openly have our sport publicised in the media, given the correct context, without causing the controversy it would have only 12 months ago.

    We'd like to thank our affiliates (and a few friends) for pulling together at the last minute to get this done, and the Gazette staff for their diligence and integrity.

    Round of "virtual applause" is in order. Well done lads.


    I'll get the scan of the last one up tonight in case anyone missed that, but you can pick up this one yourselves:)


    Also, there are several gazettes, I guess its in them all again, so check you're local shop, they probably have you're version.[Supervalue always have loads of the Dundrum one]

    again, to all involved (IAA or not), congratulations on the success.

    Chalk another success down for the IAA, and yet another reason to support them (if there weren't enough reasons already).

    bravo to the IAA, all who helped and lets not forget the gazette staff..

    a big thank you all around...

    Too late Lethal, the Gazette already kindly sent me the original :-)

    This is the one from July, the one published today is different.

    Fair play lads. The supplement starts after the half way point in the paper, page 37 in the swords edition.


    Good work

    Galway eirsoft had some of these, not sure if they are still there if any galwegians want to read a paper from the shmoke, it's a very good read for people new to the sport actually!

    We have some copies of the Gazette left over from Salute!

    If anyone outside the Dublin area would like a copy posted to them, PM me for the address to send your large stamped addressed envelope to.
