I was cleaning up some of my old stuff in the basement and I ran across these old pics from the 48 hour game at Skirmish, summer of 2001. I went with team Wicked Grin and had a blast. At the time the mag was my only gun, and it only broke down once when I let liquid CO2 into the valve :cuss: . Thought I'd share.

The "hero" shot :rofl:

And the team...

What's really funny is looking back at old pictures of the gun as it was when I got it. Now it looks like this:

The only part that makes it 'the same gun' is the front half of the valve?

Is that a AA reg in the back?

Yeah, the back half of the valve is part of an AA Raptor Rex.

Dug out some old AGD related pics myself - a quick run through my playing career, minus the first couple of years....'mag user since 1993.

First up, my team the Harlequins (hence the garish trousers) playing Arenaball in 1994 - already running HPA back then with Air America unireg systems!
