    For the past two and half weeks a small group of US Army (former and current) soldiers worked on a Stolen Valor case that all Airsoft enthusiasts and professionals need to be aware of. This case started just like any typical low-end Airsoft Forum behavior… anytime one dare questions the AUTHORITY (you have to say it in Eric Carmen’s voice to be funny…lol….), they are either ban, block, or deleted.

    *Capt. Erwin* and *SSG. Lawson* of AR questioned the legitimacy of a Gregory Shane “Bushman” Vanaman on AAR forum and was “black balled” for being “too aggressive”. The rest is documented at the below Pownetwork.org link.

    http://pownetwork.org/horv/horv_884.htm

    There is a thread in every OLCMSS event forum to remind all on MILITARY CREDENTIAL….DON’T LIE ABOUT IT…IT’S THAT SIMPLE… why would anyone disgrace those who served like that?

    What made the above case worse is that it went on for over two years! The promoters and poser set foot on Ft. Hood, Camp Grubber and the latest in AR….and made fools of many at SHOT SHOW 2012!! (SHOT SHOW owner also contacted)

    With politicians constantly attacking Airsoft, it’s NOT SMART for some to constantly find ways to draw fire to Airsoft by breaking laws and promoting posers. The same people who are skilled at posting juvenile slanders via their influenced forums/blogs and their FB pages would never STEP UP to defend the sport when politicians attack….BECAUSE THEY ARE THE PROBLEM!

    DO YOU ENJOY THE SPORT OF AIRSOFT? IF SO, SIMPLY OBEY THE LAW, RESPECT ONE ANOTHER, AND DON’T BE A POSER NOR SUPPORT POSER PROMOTERS!

    Until Next Time,

    Mag Out, Safety On,

    Lionclaws Out!

    Posers are the same the world over :(

    I bet if you google his name, that'll be the first page to come up. Probably not great for his employment/emigration prospects.

    When I was in Afghanistan with the SAS, on a detachment from the CIA / MOSSAD, doing the odd black op, I would run in to plenty of idiots like that. Wee chairsoft losers posing as Call of Duty bad boys. I earned my platinum wings with diamond stars for bravery, valour, merit and consistent sniper skill, so who the hell do they think they are by claiming to be part of my elite crew?!?!?!?!?

    It makes me so angry that I have a vein on my forehead!!



    ... in all honesty though, what a tw@

    That's because the CIA and MI6 had them removed (or so I've been told by my cousin who is in the FBI and has even met Bertie Ahern and Brad Pitt), citing national security. Duh. Covert black ops type stuff, you wouldn't understand. Don't ask, don't tell. Ahem.

    The beginning bit, yes. I may have deviated from the topic with fanciful stories of my own (and other's) epic ninja-ness.

    The serious part is a sad indictment on Airsoft though, in all honesty.

    My actual designation is classified (by the queen,of england and holland). It's a long story, but basically I was in Belfast and Omagh during the troubles, as a SAS sniper, and there are several lads in grey tracksuits in Tallaght who'd love to know my true identity. I have a badge to prove it.

    I'd rather not say anything more. Not that I'm scared or anything. I just don't want to blow my cover here in Dublin.

    **** off,

    Nothing suprises me around here these days!

    Also,

    ":D" is a trademarked Doc.Inc smiley used by "DocMessage" a license copyrighted messaging app for PC that I developed yesterday.

    I've sent a mail to high court requesting that Boards/ie be shutdown until such time that I'm happy all smileys are not infringing my license.

    Thanks,
