Operation Have Fun VII
Saturday 6/30/07

What a blast! Thanks to the 91 total airsofters for braving the potential rainy weather. You made it an absolute awesome day! With 7 total games, this was a day to remember forever. Even teams, lots of action, many many many confirmed hits. There were several new players to the community, special thanks to the veteran players for showing the new guys and girl the ropes. Not that they needed much help, they jumped right into the action.

Cannot wait until the next event!.... Operation Have Fun VIII is in the works. If you have not already done so, sign-up for the "Events Email List" to be notified of our next skirmish.

Here are the photos

Sorry... many of the photos were blurred so we did not add them to the site. I was too busy shooting at everyone instead of taking the photos. :)

Here is the shot of the day. This was during the pistol only match at Western Town

The group that took the hill.... a very tough battle.

old news....

When?
Meet us (RAIN OR SHINE) at the Survival Game of Texas Saturday (6/30/07) 9:30AM to play some airsoft, and to meet other airsoft enthusiasts. This is not a sponsored event, this is an informal skirmish intended for you to meet others who enjoy airsoft, use your airsoft weaponry, and to have some fun. Members of the Kapowwe Company will be there to answer any questions, and to play as well. If it's raining that day, be ready to get wet and muddy because we are playing.

NOTE: This is not a "Kapowwe" sponsored event. We are simply there to play and assist in organizing the game play.

NOTE: If you are under 18 years old, the field owner requires a full face paintball mask. If you are 18+ years old all you need to wear are goggles. Proper eye protection is a must! Shooting glasses are NOT proper eye protection. "Screen masks" are only rated for 300 fps and should not be worn. Everyone must have ANSI rated masks/goggles.

The absolute best eye protection we have found, and use, is the Scott airsoft mask. This is what we use on the field. They do not fog, and they protect the eyes fully. The mask portion can be removed from the rest of the mask as shown below.

Need a Weapon?

We now offer a limited number of high-grade AEGs for rent at the games. The cost is $30 and includes high-cap magazine, and fully charged battery. Please pre-purchase the rental prior to game day. This will ensure that we bring a gun for you.

Where?

Saturday 6/30/07 9:30 AM until around 3:00-4:00PM (up to you)

When you drive up to the field, it should be easy to spot the group. Look for the only group with airsoft guns, walk-up and say hello. If you arrive late and we have already moved from the front, go inside the paintball shop, tell them you are there to play airsoft, sign the release form, pay the field fee, and they will direct you to us.

Question?
How old do you have to be?

Answer: Survival Game of Texas requires that you are 12+ years old. Typically there is a wide range of ages playing from 12 to 67.

Question?
Is this a hardcore group of players?

Answer:
That's not what this is about...we are not drill sergeants and not establishing a ranking system. This is simply for you to come meet other players in the Houston area and to get outside and enjoy airsoft (i.e. get ready to spray LOTS of bb's and have a great time).

Question?
I do not have a high-end airsoft gun yet, can I still compete?

Answer:
Anyone who comes to play will have a good time; however, you will have a difficult time competing with a lower-end gun. We suggest a Premium-Grade or High-Grade AEG or at least a gas airsoft gun. We will have 1-2 high-end AEGs to rent at $30.00 per gun. This includes (1) high cap mag.

Question?
I have an upgraded rifle, can I use it.

Answer:
All rifles should be shooting below 400fps w/ .20 gram.

Question?
How much does this cost?

Answer:
Just the field fee of $15.00 + tax

Question?
What should I bring?

Answer:
    1. High-end airsoft gun, charged battery, bb's, gas....etc
    2. Full face mask / Goggles (needs to cover the eyes entirely). A paintball mask is the best choice. Shoot glasses are not appropriate.
    3. LOTS of water (it will be 90+ degrees and approximately 80%-90% humidity). Drink lots of water the day before!
    4. Snacks... we may play until 3:00-4:00
    5. The terrain can be very dense. Bring woodland BDUs (i.e. camo pants and shirt)
