                            I think their moto or slogan or whatever it is, is:

                              MAN! Some of us from Team Fireproof and the Ohio CPPA were in Iowa this weekend to play some ball, and Jesus Freak, President of the CPPA told us we made it on CNN. All glory to our God! (We're a Christian team in case ya couldn't tell.)

                              Wow. Man. Offbeat or not, that's amazing we made it there!

                              Ok...for the gun questions.

                              I'm the tallest one in the pic...and I am indeed using a mag. It's a ULE Emag in fact. And yes, it was donated to me by the members of the CPPA to get me back into the sport, and to be able to be a part of Fireproof and it's mission of telling others about what it is Jesus did for us as the human race.

                              Tim Skinner is using a Timmy, and the other gun is a Palmer Blazer.

                              My EMag is currently in the hands of Tunaman getting a face lift. The rail was unannoed, and the ULE body was blue...grip frame/battery housing was black. It's all getting a black to red fade, dust finish. New C&C Battery housing, flash the software up to 3.2, and getting a safety put in. (Sear safety was missing on it.)

                              Sitting on top, a HALO B. Nitroduck 68/4500 tank, and a CP flame drop. Macroline.

                              For more information on Team Fireproof and the Ohio CPPA you can visit our website

                              I'm still a mag newb, and need to practice a lot more with it. I'm used to mechanicals, so it's taking me a bit to learn an electro trigger, and increase my finger speed a bit. And this whole sweetspotting thing...yeah, haven't figured that totally out yet either. Give me time, I'll make you Mag owners proud hopefully!
