Knowing that my new CQBR M4 is on the way.

 

[Alpha-57]

My M4 CQBR came in the mail Yesterday!

 

[Alpha-57]

Finally finding and ordering an essential part for my 96, should be here sometime this week.:yup:

 

[Alpha-57]

The part for my L96 came in yesterday. Later than expected, but at least it's here.

 

[Alpha-57]

Someone talking about my ghillie suit, referring to me as a "military wookiee" :lmao:

 

[Alpha-57]

I found out yesterday that I'll be testing for my black belt (I'm in karate) next friday!

 

[Alpha-57]

Passed my test for black belt tonight. Feels good :tup:

 

[Alpha-57]

Myself and one other from my team got the drop on what we thought were enemy players,

What do you mean you thought, were they not enemies? :shrug:

This really made my day,

I received my HFC M9 Tuesday (bought it from TheTJ) and after about 3 days of fiddling with the internals, finally got it working (there was a piece of the trigger assembly that couldn't move how it was supposed to).

 

[Alpha-57]

I had a good day of airsofting today. I had originally planned to play with a few friends but they weren't able to come. When I get to the field, which is best suited for CQB, planning on doing a little kill-house simulation, I find that there are other people there. I begin playing with them and in the middle of the first round, my M4 (which I had apparently only temporarily fixed a wire connecting to the motor) gave up because of said motor, forcing me to use only my sidearm (an HFC M9 I bought from TheTJ). I ran the M9 the entire game, with the exception of a few rounds devoted purely to sniping, although I had my L96 slung over my back should the need arise.

Long story short, I played a total of about 5 1/2 hours of CQB with just a pistol, I was excited while scared to the point of me almost firing my M9 when I stepped on a BB. :lmao: and I loved every minute of it.:yup:

 

[Alpha-57]

Today I went airsofting, about two rounds in, my M9 dropped out of the holster (I keep it unbuckled just in case I need it fast), I go around looking for it and find it at one of the hides I used. Well I pick it up and leave (I had gotten hit and even though we play with medics, no one medics me because the enemy team surrounds me).

So I start removing my boonie hat and I feel something pinch me, upon swiping it off my face, I realize that it was a Spider ( for those who don't know of my fear of spiders, see the thread: http://www.airsoftsniperforum.com/33-lounge/6429-spiders-california.html).

Needless to say, I freaked out (in full view of everyone present), picked up my sniper rifle, shot it point blank, and blew its head off, then switched to my M9, and blew off a full mag on full auto on the already dead spider, then went and retrieved my M4 and blew an entire 120 round mid-cap on what was left of the corpse. When I finished, there was nothing left but a little piece of a leg.

KILLING IT. WAS. FUN.

(I am sadistic when it comes to spiders if you couldn't tell)

 

[Alpha-57]

Playing Need for Speed: Most Wanted, the old one for PS2, just got into a pursuit that lasted 32 minutes, involved over 200 cops, 10 helos, 60 roadblocks w/ 56 spike strips, and yielded a total bounty of 4,970,000.

I love the old need for speed games, after carbon, they went downhill..

 

[Alpha-57]

I actually don't get on with hydration packs. Though it could be just mine :shrug:. I still use the classic army canteen.

I actually use both a Camelbak and a canteen, I use an ALICE Belt with my PALS (aka MOLLE) vest

 

[Alpha-57]

Hah! Someone who knows it is called PALS, not MOLLE! Or did you learn that from me saying it so many times...

Either way, that is my (very) little thing.

I knew about it, too bad more people don't.

My little thing is that I received a gift, I mean who doesn't like getting a gift, The gift in question... A real Kevlar MICH TC-2000 combat helmet with a mount for NODs (NVGs), from a friend in SF (Security Forces, not Special Forces) for the USAF.

Acronyms, I love 'em (cant you tell). :yup:

 

[Alpha-57]

Saturday, I took my CA Predator out to the field. Got two kills and no one knew where I was. I got a laugh from one of the people I hit.

*Target pokes head out of a doorway*
Me: *bang*
Target: Woah! Hit.
(A few seconds pass)
Target: Did somebody snipe me? Hey is Gallagher sniping?
(indistinct conversation possibly what?!)
Target: IS GALLAGHER SNIPING?
(indistinct conversation)
Target (yelling to Gallagher): Gallagher?! Did you snipe me?
Me (to myself): perfect >

The guy had no idea where I was hiding, even though I thought I wasn't fully concealed (and still had the orange tip on my gun). I was shooting from a "bunker" that we have at the field, it consists of an old refrigerator with old tires stacked on top and wooden pallets on the sides. I was hiding (three quarters of me) behind the pallet on the right side, when I shot it was between the boards of the pallet.

 

[Alpha-57]

Some people at the field I go to decided to call me "pop-can" because it sounded like a good call sign for me, I "popped two of 'em in the very next round.

 

[Alpha-57]

Someone at the airsoft field had an M28. When I asked them about it and they said "it's the Echo 1 version of the L96A1"

Also, my ContourROAM finally arrived!

 

[Alpha-57]

I was told by a friend that when it comes to spiders, I'm like Al Capone: kill him, kill his family, and burn his house to the ground.

 

[Alpha-57]

I'm severely arachnophobic, but with a vengeance. :yup:

(for more info on my arachnophobia, see my Spiders in California thread)

 

[Alpha-57]

As I was walking out of the mall here, a group of Asian tourists came in wearing clothes that seemed really out of place. Included in the mix was a guy wearing a suit with a Hawaiian shirt. Just made me laugh (internally of course)

 

[Alpha-57]

I got a new red dot today, a replica EOTech 553. :yup:
