I was wondering if the concrete jungle pattern would blend in very well where you guys play. It's basically the woodland pattern, but that light brown is sub'ed with white. I don't have any idea what your guys' field looks like, so I don't know.
Just realised I got ahead of myself. Looks like intro time. Let's see... I'm not new to the world of airsoft, but as of yet just only got a job and saving up for my first gun, a tac master gbb. I live in michigan, the dearborn area to be specific. I stumbled across this place when I was at the ASP forums looking for people who play in michigan. I'd like to get with u guys when you have some "operations". I'd play with my pistol, I just want to have fun. Oh, btw, I'm 16, but not the least bit immature. My stepdad tought me propper gun safety, so I don't fuck around, not even with replicas.
I'll await your guys' reply, Alex Larsen

Hey new, I'm New. Or Newman. ;D Welcome to the forums, I'll give the quick orientation. The founding member of MiA is Hadoken, he is the administrator of the forums. He lives in Romeo and owns an TM MP5SD6. Viking was the second/third on the forums, he lives in Howell and owns an TM M4A1 and new TM MP5A4. Ballista is Hadoken's brother-in-law, lives with Hadoken and H's wife, owns a gas M11. I am from Saline (next to Ann Arbor), and own an ICS MP5SD6. Some other faces you'll see: Ed-fourth guy to post (or was I fourth, was just thinking about that) who lives in Ann Arbor and goes to the U of M, owns a ton of guns (supposedly;D). JackStraw-old fart (teeheehee) who owns an MP5 of some sort ( ) and just gave back a G3/SG1. Minky-ok having a blank, he lives in Adrian, but forgot what guns he owns. Locutus-an Airsoft Ohio member who posts when we need some professional advice. SickPointe-the youngest guy here (only a couple months younger than me) but the liveliest, bought an XM-177E3 and it hasn't arrived yet, lives in Grosse Point. Unnamed-lives in Illinois, Chicago area, provides advice when we don't need any (;DJust kidding man! Honest! ). One kinda special name-Janus-he's making the first (basically) Airsoft park in the USA, near/in Battle Creek. Keep tabs on any info you hear about him. Glad to have you around, Alex!

Tis a great thing I tell ya. Sorry I can't answer your camo Q, but we don't really have a "place" yet There has been one skirmish at Viking's and another is happening this weekend (my first!). We need to find an abandoned warehouse or something for some CQB, hehe.

I know Janus. I know who Hado is from the airsoftplayers.com forums. The rest I only know from this place. To be honest, I've been watching the boards for a couple of days. Hehe... get intel first, make your presence known later. Looking forward to when I get my MC51 and come up, down or latteraly to play some airsoft with you guys.

I think I have seen this camo before... Most of the games that will be played are going to be outside, in or around wooded areas. Although I think that camo does little or nothing (now the sh!t storms a comin') I think that your BDU's might be useful in my upcoming game. I think that with or without a gun you should attend one of the recent airsoft events, I'm sure that you can bum a gun off of someone. I am currently setting up a winter scenario, everyone is invited. ...and Newman, if you have any doubts of my "collection" of weaponry, just show up to 'Snow Fox and I'll give you a CLOSE UP.

Thanx Ed. I'm getting my camo this weekend. Next weekend, I'll buy a bag of bb's to bring along. That is if someone will lone me at least a pistol.

MC 51 is a sweet gun. I was thinking maybe for an urban camo thing you could put a No Parking sign on your uniform. Just stand in front of a light post and theyd never see you. I just thought of that when you said concrete jungle... I also said it to illustrate newmans point about me...

Aah I knew that name sounded familiar! Welcome to the forums Alex. The concrete jungle pattern would really come in handy in these colder winter months. Everything turns whitish grey so you'd be set. Speaking of urban camo, I saw the absolute sweetest urban camo the other day. I was browsing through ebay looking for european camo when I stumbled upon some Polish "urban ghost" camo. It looked like German Flectarn only in whites/greys/blacks. Oooh I need to get me some of those. I'll try to find a pic to post. *yes, yes Hado is getting odd camo once again, will not conform to US camo ways* Ooh i want some Danish camo! *off to search ebay once more*

SickPointe-if you had read my entire post, or just noticed some things, I posted what everyone's main guns were. Your MP5A5 is broken, and your P226 is a secondary weapon.

Why does that look like MARPAT? I think that that is contraband urban MARPAT. Of course, I could be wrong.

Don't think it's pixely enough to be MARPAT. Looks like plain flectarn style to me only with an urban color scheme. Ooh, I digs!
