Op: Black Rain, Sennybridge 30th-31st Aug 08

logo small Just had word from Rob (South West War Games) about a large event that they are going to hold at Sennybridge Training Area at the end of August:

Hola, just a quick note about our forthcoming event.

Operation Black Rain. Sennybridge Training Area 30th-31st August 2008.

The Republic of Burundi has been the poorest country in the African Continent if not the World for decades and has been subject to years of ethnic and political violence.

Largely ignored by the rest of the International scene, Burundi has struggled on in its own political and economic existence.

Suddenly, America has highlighted Burundi’s plight on the international stage and pressed the hitherto disengaged UN to intervene.

Burundi’s own troops are mobilising, its neighbours are vying for position and there are strange rumours seeping from its borders of incredible findings. The tension in the capital city of Bujumbura is reaching boiling point.

Is this a Military Coup?
Is this a Humanitarian disaster?
Or is this something more sinister……….
Take your place in the future of the African region.

South West Wargames are proud to host Operation Black Rain as a follow up to the successful Screasdon Fort event.

Taking place at the renowned MOD FIBUA Training area at Sennybridge in South Wales……

Places are limited to 200 players. 16years +.

The event will begin at 1200hrs Saturday and will continue through the night until 1300hrs Sunday.

Pre-booking for the event before August 1st will cost £75, booking after August 1st will cost £85 and the event will cost £100 on the gate.

We are offering a team booking system, by which if you book in a team of 10 players prior to the event, the 10th person will get in free.

To pre-book, please contact Gary Braim Mob: 07921 992450 Email: gary@swwargames.co.uk

Or check out the specific threads on Arnies Airsoft.

Cheers all at Arnies.

OPSEC Airsoft Radio - Episode 104 posted

Episode 104 of OPSEC Airsoft Radio is now up:

Hey Arnie,

We’re back with another rousing episode of the podcast only a mother could love. We expanded a bit on the Combat Photographer role with an interview with Aussie Ken, a photographer who was embedded with the US Army during operations in Iraq. We talked about how we can twist the role to fit an airsoft game as well as the impression needed to pull the role off. With the ever growing number of airsoft manufactures, we thought it would be interesting to cover brand loyalty when it comes to guns and gear. An interesting yet fun night was had by all. 104 has been posted and for those interested, the show is available for download via iTunes (search for “opsec” in the Music Store: Link) or via direct download at the below link:

networkairsoft.com launches

networkairsoft Network Airsoft has launched. I’ve had a quick look and I think it can be best described as an Airsoft Facebook style community website. Do check it out:

On Network Airsoft you can:

  • Create a profile for your airsoft squad and pimp it with pics, videos and blog posts! If you don’t have a squad you can just do the same thing with your own profile page!
  • Buy and sell airsoft guns using the forum
  • Blog about your latest airsoft battle on your very own free blog
  • Write reviews of your airsoft guns and have them featured on the main page
  • Chat about airsoft in the forum
  • Add videos and pics
  • Send send messages and use groups to arrange your next airsoft game

How can I get featured on the Network Airsoft Homepage?
We constantly scour Network Airsoft for anything of substance. If you post a cool video or review of an airsoft gun (or anything we like) in the forum or on your blog we will find it and feature it! (Network Airsoft)

Easy-To-Make Airsoft Magazine "Gas-up" Station

Here’s a quick reader idea from John at pointshooting.com:

gasfill Easy-To-Make Airsoft Magazine "Gas-up" Station

The stand is an old patio umbrella stand. The pipe is a 15 inch piece of 1 1/4 inch Schedule 40 PVC pipe. It is heavy duty and can be cut with a hand saw. Pipe can be longer.

2 four inch adjustable metal bands (screw-to-tighten) were used to hold the gas tank to the pipe. And duct tape was added to the tank to prevent slipping.
Set on a work table or bench, it is very stable. 

To add oil drops to the propane gas tank adapter valve, slip the pipe, with tank attached, out of the stand. Turn the tank upright, with pipe attached. Unscrew adapter, add oil drops.

Not shown in the pic, is an empty pill bottle that I cut down some. I then taped it to the patio stand pipe near the bottom. It holds the little bottle of oil ready for use, but out of the way.
