    very excited about this starting to do my shopping already
    looking for some advise from people that have been before.
    what eye protection is best here.
    full face mask with glass
    full face mask with mesh
    glasses or mesh specs
    this is a cqb site i wore mesh goggles with a balaclava last time but depends on how much you care about youre face just ensure you have good eye protection

    There was a tooth lost when I was there. I'd always advise mouth protection, but definitely when indoors. I wore mesh and was fine.

    just to confirm it midcaps right

    Yup midcaps. Full face protection highly recommended.


  • Registered Users Posts: 199 ✭✭Toherinator


    i wore a full face mask cause it gets pretty close espeaical when its in the pitch black and there are no bang kills, yes!!!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,968 ✭✭✭TNTQ


    Full face protection is highly recommended in such enclosed places. BB deliverieng 1j of force can do a lot of damage. If you think 1j is not a lot you are misstaken.


  • Registered Users Posts: 56 ✭✭cannonfoddr


    Played there last year and took off a neophrene mask as it was making verbal communication almost impossible BIG MISTAKE!!!!!!My face got cut to bits also i shot out that tooth later on so maybe i got away lightly.This year i'll definately be using a mesh face mask with mesh goggles no com prob's,no cuts and no grief from the missus:D

    To be decided but...

    Generally

    We don't want to be reliant on red/blue armbands in low light conditions so...

    One Team in DARK COLOURS - Black/Green/Woodland

    The other in Light COLOURS - Tan/Desert/Multicam/ACU

    Are civvies allowed at the event? Personally I don't see the point in wearing noisey and restrictive bdu's.

    As long as they conform to the "General" light/dark loadouts, it'll be grand. But i'd prefer not to have the runners, jeans and hoodies brigade, that would ruin the pretence of the scenario.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 92 ✭✭skoolboi


    Have a paid the deposit already, but just got word from work that I have been granted a weeks paid holidays to go have fun and to recover from this sure-to be an excellent trip........ again:D

    And to anyone who is unsure about what face protection to wear I'd simply suggest you ask cha for his advice, you know what they say........ learn from others mistakes and not your own!!!!!!!!

    Whilst not one of those bags, I hvae a blackhawk battle bag; and I've used it in a CQB environment. T'is very handy, pretty quick to access and acts like a good dump-pouch as well, and the front pouch has m4 mag holders.

    So YES :p

    Dublin bus is approx 1/2 Full - so that's about 20

    Carlow/Wexford bus is 3/4 Full - so that's 35

    20+35 = 55 ;)

    4 People traveling within the UK so that's approx 59 heads so far.
