Zombie Shoot, Costume ideas Top Ten List

The local shooting club has a "Zombie Match" at the end of every month.
It is run with 22 cal guns and they tell me it's a lot of fun. ( I know, this is RS stuff, but hey, it's fun)
I ordered a holster and mag pouch for my Ruger 22/45
I also ordered a Uramex HK MP5SD 22lr rifle.
I figured that I need to dress the part if I am going to do it.
I was on the phone tonight with Sam from X-caliber Tactical and asked for some ideas,
 I should have known better !

So after a hour or so he sent me these,



So Tim's going to attend a "Zombie Hunter" gun shoot and needs some costume ideas....




1.   Since Tim actually is an ordained priest (Honest!! Would I lie about a servant of the Lord?!)






2.  Since Tim is a priest with aspirations... and because the Pope has put Tim as number 2 on his most wanted list behind the Devil after the now famed "Buca Di Beppo  incident at SHOT 2010.






3.   Have you really not seen that movie trailer yet?




4.    I would imagine this would also get Tim free gas when his truck squeals to a stop in front of a gas station and then he rushes in.. offering to pay for it in cash.






5.  Why not use Tim's arch enemy to his own advantage?  Plus imagine all the Sean Connery insults he would be able to throw out.  "I zombied your mother last night!"  








6. Tim can just wear that blood splattered shirt from SHOT Show, you know, after you hacked up that hooker at that suite at TI.....oops..  um.... everyone forget what I just said there...






7.  Remember Tim... it's a chainsaw... not the leaf blower...



8.  The only reason why I suggest this is because Tim already has the costume.  Besides, where do you think Zombie Hunters originally came from?





9.   If Batman can make it work for him, to take what you fear most and turn it  into what strengthens you....why not?  









10.   If Flying Monkeys can make it work for him to take what you fear most ,....why not?  


Now it's your turn
Do you have any to add?
More airsoft stuff coming soon.
Same Bat time, Same Bat Channel.

Till tomorrow

Stuff Taken from the web

From time to time, I check on the bookmarked airsoft sites I have collected over the years. 
It seems I have been remiss in doing this for a while and many of mine have been shutdown.
They all had something worthwhile on them, so now I am looking at the sites that have not had any activity for a while and stealing what is good off them before they go tit's up.
If I take something of yours, and you don't wish it to be seen here, let me know and I will take it down.
I just hate when someone's hard earned info, that can help others, disappears.
Found this info dump on Unconventional Airsoft, he has not updated in a long while and these are some good tips.



If you are having problems with your thigh holster twisting around your leg, the solution is not to strap it tighter to your thigh. It means that it’s not anchored securely and rigidly at your belt.

Load bearing vests can be uncomfortable after long periods if they put pressure at the bottom of your neck.

Stretching a spring out will increase it’s power for only a short while – then the spring rapidly dies.

While most all AEG inner barrels are pretty interchangeable, the same is not true of GBB inner barrels.

It’s said that the fixed hop-up on the APS2 SV is too high for even .30g BBs with an upgraded spring.

The Maruzen MP5K GBB does not lock the bolt back on the last shot.

They say it’s good practice to leave a small amount of gas in GBB mags for storage. This helps keep the seals in good shape.

It’s said it’s good practice to NOT load your GBB mags all the way to the top with BBs. Leave a few out. Otherwise, when you push the magazine in the BBs are pressing quite hard into the gas chamber bolt. This can (and has) fatigued and even bent the chamber. Leave 2-3 bbs out and your gun will thank you.

It seems the Mil-Force MP5K harness takes quite a bit of work to actually fit the MP5K. Fitting the M11 is no problem, however.

It’s said that some creative types use a shotgun sling with built-in shell pouches and insert their battery cells into the shell pouches, running a wire up the sling and to a connector on the gun.

The higher your hop-up is set, the less stable your BB’s trajectory will be and the more it will be affected by conditions such as wind.

They say that a fat-style Bic Round Stic pen is opaque white, is a circular tube in and out, and has a cylinder-ish flat lid. Their internal diameter is about 6.5 mm. Makes a great tube that Airsoft bb’s flow freely in.

They say that leaky gas gun magazine seals can be fixed by soaking them in 100% pure silicone oil for a day or so. If you are desperate, soak them instead in radiator stop-leak fluid or something similar – this will cause the seals to swell. Wipe them off and try it. Consider using some teflon tape as well (white film-like tape used to seal threads on compressed gas fittings). To prevent your seals from going bad, keep them lubed lightly and always store your magazines with a shot or two’s worth of gas in them.

Simple and effective anti-fogging for lenses can be had by applying liquid soap to lenses (no water), then polishing it off with a cloth. Lasts all day.

Some say that wiping a new sheet of fabric softener on your BDUs keeps mosquitoes away.

Adding something like powdered Gatorade mix (or other drink mix) to your water during winter will help keep your hydration on system line from freezing.

They say that dry-firing your KSC Glock with no magazine inserted is a sure way to need to replace part #78.

It is said that Green Gas (aka TOP Gas, HFC22) is really just Propane with some perfume added.

Airsoft Media Party, SHOT Show 2012

If 2012 is really the last year the world is going to be around,
 
we can say this was the best party the airsoft media ever had at SHOT Show!

Most of us started the day early, climbing onto some comfortable buses to trek an hour or so outside
Las Vegas to the SHOT Show media day.
A mile or so of shooting lines were set up with a cornucopia of firearms.
You could find everything from the newest Barrett to the most recent offering from Umarex in .22 cal
(And you got to shoot them, for free!)
 
I am sure you have seen the multitudes of pictures posted all over the web, I won't bore you with mine.
Let's say it was a fun day.
 
I left early to get back and set up for the media party.
We had it set up right off the dance floor inside the Gilley's country bar in the Treasure Island resort.
 
The staff was wonderful and put up with the 30 or so people that came by for dinner.
I heard the food was great, I was so busy making sure everyone had what they needed, I did not even eat, but as you can see by the pictures of me, I didn't need too!
 
Snake and Ghost from Beat Down Boogie stopped by to tame the bull.
I slipped the controller and extra 10.00 to make sure they had a ride they would remember,
your welcome guys.
 
After a few hours of great eats, some booze ( for those who do that kind of thing) and screaming at the top of our lungs to be heard over the country music, most of the group retired to my suite for a quieter chat.
Here are some snaps of the fun.

For helping me cover the cost of this venture.

Dr Airsoft is the evil genius behind this mess,
 his tireless emails and coordination made this a event to remember.
Stop back by and I will have up the rest of the sponsors and some picture captions soon, I am still getting over the SHOT Show crud, besides, Justified is coming on the TV and I need to go.



Till Tomorrow,

What, your room at did not have these?

I guess you didn't stay at the Treasure island!
For SHOT Show,
I think all the suites have this setup.
