    This weekend sounds like it is going to be a blast.
    I know there are few people wanting to make it competitive but at the same time keeping the over firing to a minimal, b/c not everyone is comming to show off their speed. I like the idea of not having people running around with 20pbs+, b/c that what I normally play with when I play. I don't mind throwing out paint, but I normally only play 10-3 and I go through about 1500-2000. I'd like to be able to play a little more conservitive, and last the hole day.


    If I show up and not many people are around 8-9, with AO I'll probable jump into a game two with OP. This is more of a MAG event and it feels so good to rip apart an angel or DM.


    I don't know how many poeple live near or around STL or Collensville, but I've always been looking to get a few people together to go play at the Collesum in Collensville, IL. I've heard some good and some bad about the place, but I don't want to go by myself when I have other people that may want to go. THAT IS BESIDE THE POINT, this weekend is about Xtreme.

      The Coliseum is up in wood river...about 15-20 min north of collinsville, but i enjoy playing there...i think its the turf...it's really fun to slide on...
      -i'm up for a game there anytime...

      saturday we should plan our next get together for the middle of the winter and we can go enjoy the great indoors.

        Colesieum isnt bad, but they only have 2 airball fields....snore........lol.
        And its FPO, which sucks in my book.

        We can discuss doing a winter meet at coliseium or maybe even go to KC and go to Jaegers subsurface?

        Anyone go to the new place, Gateway outfitters at 70 & cave springs exit, they had there grand opening saturday, and I couldnt make it. Going by the name I would think it is owned by wackky/pms or their people.

        I have nothing good to put here...........

          Well I am having a ton of troubles and am very frustrated. I've spent the past 3 days working on all my guns (that was ready) and have had everything go wrong that can. My stock class mag is the one gun ive had good luck with, I am still waiting on the 12 gram quick changer, but after some dremaling, I have a reversed RPG 15* asa on it for the quick changer to go in. My poor dragun mag has given me nothing but fits, on the new frame I built I decided to try making a slot so I could adjust how strait the frame sits on the rail... This turned out to be a bad idea becuse the field strip screw isnt strong enough to hold it in place, so between that and a wire that goes to the solenoid that keeps breaking (re soldered it twice with good flow both times, it breaks in diffrent spots), I emptied an 47/3k tank trying to get it all to work. My RPG RT, well I am in need of a front frame screw for it (the longer screw for an RT rail), the intelliframe I wanted to put on it (just recived it on the RT that my dragun frame is on), has one of the bottom screws stripped out on it, I thought I could fix it but cant find my tap and die set. With the foregrip thats on it, its to long and I cant use a drop on it. I have finaly gotten tired of my POS Unimount and have thrown it in the trash, never could turn a bottle on or off with it, and it keeps breaking orings when I unscrew a bottle.

          Sorry guys had to do some venting, its been a rough day. I cant wait to relax and shoot some paint this weekend, I sure am in need of it!

          btw, if anyone has a spare front frame screw for an RT rail that they can bring I would greatly appreciate it. I have quite a few screws for a classic rail (the shorter of the 2), but of course they arent long enough.

            SUCK. I hate gun trouble.

            i've got a tippmann 98 sitting around if you need a gun...but hopefully someone will have a grip frame screw for you. Or you could check at the hardware store. I love wandering around the screw isle of the hardware store with random gun parts (mostly PGP). I guess you just have to make sure it doesn't look like a gun...i think they'd frown on that.

              Thanks, I should be good to go, ive got a couple spyders I can use if it comes down to it, just frustrating to have so much trouble in one night. I could go look at one of my local farm stores, they have a nice collection of allan head screws, but will still ahve to find somone to tap a hole in the bottom of my trigger frame. I got my new dragun frame re soldered, ended up I had 2 wires break off. I didnt have this problem with the other frames ive built, this is the first one ive gotten that had this problem. If I cant get it to work, I can always put my t-board in my other frame and use it though. Anyway sorry for venting here, just thought this would be more appropriate then the general forums since it is for this weekend.


              Also one more thing, if we do order pizza for lunch saterday, I will need an order of bread sticks instead of pizza. I cant eat cheeze, but bread sticks are fine for me.

                I should be getting a few extra supplies by this weekend. I'm trading locally for a few extras for my modded xbox.

                Nitro: (these are low pressure so they don't help at the get together)
                68 3000
                88 3000

                Masks:
                2 flex's
                2 Proteuses

                Marker:
                Nova 700

                So I'll have a few extra maks.
                Depending on if the Nova leaks/works. He said he hasn't fired it in a while and the last time he did, it had a small leak.

                    I'm sorry, I thought I hit all my posts that I made on that e-mag. I traded it away form a pimped out xbox w/like 80games. I didn't need it so I was looking for a deal, and I have two othe fully functional emags. (eMAG whore)

                    (((FOR EVERYONE COMING)))
                    I have an E-mag that is fully functional that I might be willing to trade away, but I'll have both with me.

                    I just looked at your post. *and all I can say is d*mn*Bring your ion with you, I might still be willing to trade but for a fully functional emag. I have only played with MAGs and I've always looked for something else. Since it's a fully functional emag. I would removed the ULE body and give you the stock center feed and barrel. ULE and boomstick was $120. All you'd need to keep my E-mag running is a new charger. I have two e-mags but only 1 charger, sorry.

                    If I like the way your ION runs I'll take the offer. I've been trying to get a different gun other than an E-mag, and seems like a good way to go about it. It's hard to find an ION that I can test fire.

                    If you can add a Halo or Egg, I might consider adding the ULE with 14" boomstick.
                    (both are blue)


                    Specs on the eMAG I might be willing to trade this weekend.

                    Stock Frame/board/E-mag valve (I know you wanted an x-valve, that I can't provide)
                    Black center feed, older style
                    stock barrel
                    Board has vs. 1.37, something like $20 to get flashed
                    Stock site rail
                    Good condition and very few scratches.

                    (If deals are good, I could add)
                    Blue ULE center feed
                    Blue 14" boomstick w/cocker threads
                    Blue unimount, I think it's s CP

                    All you'd need to keep the gun running is some good blow back oil, which all mag owners have, and also a battery charger. Not sure on price but airgun sells them.

                    I DO LIKE HIS OFFER FOR ION..

                      Have I talked to you about your EMag? I'm interested in an EMag. Will have to take a look at it. I don't have an Ion to trade, but may be able to do better

                      I think I saw the one w/ busted electronics and passed.

                        I might have to leave at 2:30pm because I won't have a ride back untill later and I'm going to be all sweaty/nasty so I don't think unless we do a bonfire if I'll be decent enough to hit up a resturant. I just got my license (I'm 17, but a lazy bum lol) but my insurance isn't worked out, plus the car needs some work, so yeah. Still relying on 'rent's for rides.

                        I'm gonna buy 1/2 a case and hope it lasts me.

                        So if we can get stuff finalized, I'd really like to know so I can plan accordingly. Also, what time is everyone getting there? I've got to borrow just a revvy and some mask, so I'm relying on everyone else. I'd like to get there bright and early at 8am, but if everyone is getting there later let me know.

                          what time can we start playing?

                          the earlier the better for me, since i think im gonna have to leave at 1~pm sicne my friggin tarded boss booked groups at times that requires more refs than we have, even though i asked off 4 weeks ago..

                          im soo pissed, but il yell at him about that.

                          il be there around 9 probly, unles told we can play earlier.

                          as for the gear, think il do a drawing unles somone else has a better diea so everyone MAKE SURE that i get your name on a piece of paper to throw in a box or soemthing for drawings.

                          on a sidenot i dont think were gonna have any problems with poor sportsmanship etc with an AO only(mostly) group not to mention what ive seen and who i have met already of who is going

                          il also have a ule custom for sale..

                            They open at 9am apparently, I thought they started at 8 because that's what whoever said with the first post of this thread. Whatever, I'll show at 9 then.

                              Yea, 9am should be the earliest time to start. I will be there by 8-9, but I am a slow person to get my crap togther, chronoed, etc......

                              Chrono: where do you work? just curious.

                              Restaurant idea: Dennys or Hooters. There are one of each near South county mall, which is 15 minutes from the field. Both places should be tolerant of some sweaty players.

                              And I will be bringing a Ion for sale, thread here: http://www.automags.org/forums/showt...15#post2009815

                                Either Hooters or Dennys sounds good, its been a long time since I ate at a hooters, but I know dennys has some good food. Me and my cousin should pull in around 9 depending on road construction. Map quest says its around 150 miles, as long as the interstate is clear we could make it by 8.

                                I am finishing up all of my guns, got my intelliframe holes rethreaded, so all im going to need is one screw. Since I still dont have my 12 gram quick change, I guess I will put a bottome line setup and run it off a bottle, but still use the feed tube!
