      FSL is going under, not really hard to see why. But for now they have sale going on and stuff like that. I think entry and air is free. Closes on March 21st I believe

        For some of us, spending $100 would be an average day of paintball. Then again we would be mostly hosers, ay. Can't say I like spending top dollar for average paint though. I don't mind spending $65/case for Marbz... I'd rather pay more to get into the place than pay too much for bad paint.

        Interesting about FSL, just goes to show that paintball as a whole isn't necessarily a lucritive business. I'm to the point where I don't mind paying a premium for entry to a well run facility that is a safe place to play and where they make it fun for everyone. Probably why I stick to the fields that I do.

        I've really got the itch now. Today's weather was such a tease. they are talking about snow and 30's next week.

        It's a good thing I have the reball going in the basement.

            Now...Is that an Evil April Fool's Day joke, or are they really open???

            Actually, it seems that a lot of fields are going to have that be the first open play weekend. I will have to see if I can get the planets to align and get out to play.

            I'm thinking Alamo in the afternoon on Saturday and Action Packed Paintball Games in the afternoon on Sunday.

              Can't believe this thread has been around so long and I never saw it. Yup another MN AO'r. Hailing from Farm Land Paintball Club and MN Militia. All the fields have been mentioned. Let's make it out to the Farm Land on 1 April.

                Sage, good to see you found us. How's that Micro-Mag? Did you get the valve separated?

                Mech, are you and Chem and Corky planning the June 25 outing for Operation Overloard at SFP? They are already taking forms. I sent mine in this week.

                For anyone else who is interested, http://www.specialforcespaintball.com/link2.htm

                I am also hoping to make it out to Hudson in May for this charity event. http://www.huntforthecure.us/ May 7 at Splat Tag.

                    Thats sad to hear they were close but that paint they had sucked bad I think it gets froze or something. The people were nice though I'm going to checkout that sale.

                      I'm hoping to make it out there for the monthly big games, but I don't know for sure. I'm thinking about the hunt for the cure event. I was there last year at the June and September Big Games. I shoot a Pewter X-Mag with a Blue Halo, or a Black to Green X-Mag with a Black Halo.

                        April 1?

                        Looks to be a pretty sloppy start to the season around these parts. With the snow melt and three days of rain in the forecast before Saturday, it's not looking good.

                          snowboarding season is done for sure.... here at least.

                          Just use an umbrella mounted to your hopper, it will be the next -- mod --

                            But they don't have any in digi-camo.

                            I'm not planning on getting out this weekend. Should be pretty sloppy wet and muddy jst about anywhere.

                              JR, yup I got it running nice. Looking around for a better cocker threaded barrel though. I think the Classic is going to get a pump kit installed after SPE. I'll definetly make the Hunt For The Cure and all the Splat Tag Big Games. Looking forward to seeing more of the MN AOers. I'm going to get more Mag time as well as all the pump games this year.

                                Sage, That is the nice thing about the Micros and the ULE bodies, cocker threads on the barrels make it really easy to find something that will suit your needs. I got one of those Apex Barrels that I've not been able to try out yet (got it to try it out, have heard good and bad things about it). I also have the Pipe and Edge Kits. I'm almost thinking that a good one piece would have met my needs really anyway.

                                Anyone getting out this weekend? It's 2:00 on Saturday afternoon and I can't seem to drive myself out to a field. Maybe tomorrow I will make it out to APPG in Jordan.
