So Sunday is just around the corner again and we're almost all geared up to play. One slight problem, Rain.... Some people play regardless and some would rather not. So here's my question... Do you play in the rain PBf Feedback: Personally i hate... i mean i absolutely hate having a wet ass.... But on the field with gun in hand i tend to forget all about that. I know that some complications may arise with electros... I played in a steady drizzle with my rail last time i played... Another guy had a speed feed and was forced to hold his gun upside down to keep his paint dry.... But honestly i wouldn't do i t differently if i had it to do over... And most the tiem you couldn't even see out of your mask without first wiping the water off your lenses... So what do you cats out there think..... Rain if you must or just play another day PBf Feedback:

Just protect the electronics & paint from direct water. I have played in a little drizzle & a decent storm & never had a problem with it as long as my feet stayed dry.

what can i say. i like it wet! Like the mudder said wrap your gun and go. There is nothing more fun that getting all nasty and muddy and slinging some paint. And i thought i was the girl here! Go for it hawk, wish i'd play with you in the rain!

The last time it started raining while I was playing, everyone packed up their crap and went home. I was confused by that.

Just call me the Mail Man! The nastier the weather the more fun the play and just remember it is just PLAY. 5" of snow, A monsoon as long as there's no lightning, puddles mud like quick sand......
Just hand me my old Pro/Carbine and I'm good to go. If it's speedball in the muck well I'm a backman anyway but I'd just deal with a slightly lower rate of fire and use my Autococker. Leave the electronics in the truck and play.

OMG, thats sad.
When I was shooting my TL+ all the time I had to make a little flap out of duct tape to cover the port on the powerfeed.

yeah i've learned that you can never have enough parts for tinkering.... I have 3 different boxes of tools and parts and i still don't have all i need.... Now if i jsut had my shop set up... I think my wife is getting tired of wiping my dremel dust off the kitchen table. And for those who care... My next project is a automag pistol and pump spyder...
