Just don't give the emag a bath and it will be fine.

word to the wise: put something ove the porting on your barrel. you will get some REAL funky shots if the inside of the barrel is wet

I played with mine in the rain for an entire day. It varied from a good downpour to a drizzle and never stopped completely. The board did eventually go down on the last game of the day during a game. Of course.. I flipped to manual mode and kept shooting;)
After I dried out the gun all was well other than my shot counter resetting. Actually I think the main culprit was a bit of mud up in the battery that caused a bad connection. In other words just keep your gun clean in between games and you should be ok. Worse case scenario you have a cool slightly heavier RT to shoot, and God knows, you could do worse than that.

I played with mine about a week ago in the rain and I got my gun totally covered in mud and dirt, and it still preformed very well. I think as long as you dont try to wash it or sumthing along those lines you will be alright.
