[warbeak2099]

Damnit why do I have to live in the north east. Nothing good ever happens around me. :mad:

[Smoothice]

Looks like a blast. Can't wait for the next one. I hear there is a train station nearby? That may make it easier for me next time.

[BigEvil]

Is that Atach's dad rockin a Mini? LOL shame!!


I see Rudz put the damn pump down and picked up his SFL. How's that thing shooting after now? :ninja:

[Mind'sEye]

Is that Atach's dad rockin a Mini? LOL shame!!

Ummm......I hadn't played in about 1 1/2 month so it was my first chance to excercise the Mini. Very nice little weapon. The rest of the day was spent with my Xmag. For what it's worth, geekwarrior and I were sporting matching Mini color motifs. I had a blast hanging out with all the guys who stationed in the "duct tape tent".

[PumpMag]

[A-Tach-One]

[d4m4don3]

As you can note in the Triple Tap bruise pic. Do not mess with Tach, his pinky can crush you. :rofl:

[rkjunior303]

will ms atachone be at the next event? will she have equally as hot friends with her, as well"?

[SummaryJudgement]

Looks like a good time guys! Maybe next time.............. :ninja:

[Indignant]

i really pictured you as being middle aged, ATO. oh well

[A-Tach-One]

Oh yes she will, but her friends are too chicken. ;)


i really pictured you as being middle aged, ATO. oh well
Lol, thanks. :p

[geekwarrior]

Oh yes she will, but her friends are too chicken. ;)


Lol, thanks. :p

Did you spend alot of time teaching the mrs to play, or is it just natural talent? She's certainly one of the better girls i've seen on the field, plays both sides of the bunker well, doesn't get tunnel vision, isn't afraid to move, etc.

In all honesty, natural talent. She doesn't even play that much and she snap shoot's hell of alot better than me. I wish she played more but just playing some is sweet enough. :cheers:

[BigEvil]

i really pictured you as being middle aged, ATO. oh well

I pictured him with more hair :-)

[RvB Caboose]

That looks like it was a really good time. Good pics. If I lived in the states I would have gone. Looks like I'll have to organize a Europe-wide Automag meet. I'm still on step 1: find someone else who owns a Mag... :(

[A-Tach-One]

As you can note in the Triple Tap bruise pic. Do not mess with Tach, his pinky can crush you. :rofl:

[t-rex42]

Hey, you got some nice shots there!

Thanks again Eric, the fellas and I had a blast :D

[Smoothice]

Hey Tach- Next event at your place. Hopefully your house is finished and you guys are all moved in.

We will need to find a good excuse to get rid of your wife for an hour or so. Send her to get lunch or a mani-pedi. Whatever!

Once shes gone you can give us a tour of your panic room. Atachs Fort Knoxs! We all know that the bed picture is just the tip of the ice berg. That bed pic only represents what your wife actually knows about. We want to see the whole collection.

I figure an hour will be enough time to see them all.

Of course I realize there will be no pictures allowed and we will all have to sign a silence clause.

Wouldn't want to blow your cover.

[Loguzzzzzz]

hey!!! loguzz was supposed to let me have thoe balls!!!!
In my mad dash to get on the road (6 hour drive) I forgot to leave them. :tard:

PM me an address and I will send them to you. :D

Great Fun! Me and Xecutioner (Daniel) look forward to the next opportunity to play with you guys................Monterey :ninja:

Well, about half of the collection came out but only a few saw daylight. Like rudz said, I used the satin blue SFL EMag and the wife used the gloss red SFL EMag. She normally uses a pewter XMag but we chose to shoot them for the day and they performed perfect. :cheers:

[Rudz]

Hey rudz............remember this... :D
