General Airsoft Discussion / Re: The Trouble with Vanguard
« on: December 03, 2012, 10:54:38 AM »
Got back from having an 8 hour session yesterday, and boy am I sore. I had a lot of fun... up until the 4 o'clock period hit.

Quite a few highly experienced regulars started playing, and they were "in the pants" with the staff, so they used that and cheated to high heaven. They would constantly not call their hits and bitch at people all the time for the slightest things. At one point I surprised one around a corner, I shot him in the torso about 3-4 times before he started shooting at me back. We exchanged fire at each other for about 3 seconds before I said "Dude.. you're out." and he replied with "Yeah, I guess...." and grudgingly walked off. WTF? The refs were also incompetent. They split the teams so the rental guppies were in one team, and the experienced 1337 tactic00l in-the-pants operators on the other. Me and my buddy got stuck with the guppies, we were the only experienced airosfters in that team. Nothing happened except spawn camping, spawn camping, and more spawn camping. After EVERY SINGLE ROUND I told the refs that the teams were incredibly uneven and we were doing nothing but getting spawn camped, they even saw it on their monitors. They said they'd fix it but never did a single damn thing about it. They continued to camp us in all games up until they suddenly all left a 6:30 and the whole place was empty except me and my 2 buddies.

I think its safe to say that everyone's biggest problems are the refs, and thats what it really boils down to it seems.

All of you bring up excellent points, my major issue are the refs treating me like I'm some 12 year old delinquent who doesnt know his ass from his elbows. I was threatened to do pushups after trying to clean the fog off of my safety glasses while in the waiting area. Am I not allowed to see? Its kind of hard to reload my weapon or do anything at all when my glasses are covered with fog.

I also think that the sit-out for cheaters is an excellent idea. I am going to vanguard this sunday with a buddy, and I swear to god, if some ass clown doesnt call his shots, I'm walking up to him and unloading on him point blank, and I don't give a shit what anyone says. You shouldn't be doing that, and they shouldnt be getting away with it. I've told refs about cheaters and they do nothing about it. Multiple refs, I might add. The only saving grace that time was the kidness of experienced players who felt sorry for our team and decided to help.

I love the field, I really do, but some EASY. EASY adjustments can be made to make the game a hell of a lot better and fun for the real, dedicated airsofters while still retaining your squeaker customers, and most of these changes have to do with the refs.

If I may make a suggestions, but its probably been suggested before, if you feel the absolute need to search someones bag, at least tell them you are doing so in their presence when a match is over. There is literally no pro to doing it while they are in game, because anything you find you can easily ban while they are right there, or they will have it on them in the field. Tell them you are doing it, and do it in front of them. This still retains your bag searching policy while stopping your corrupted butt tickling refs from stealing peoples belongings.

I apologize for being so vulgar in my post, but it really turns my toilet.

The fact that anything is getting stolen at all is very concerning. The last time I went there, 2 of the refs were full of themselves and thought they their shit smelled sweater than everyone elses. I was trying to clean off the fog on my glasses and the guy told me I'd have to do pushups if I dont put them back on. The fuck?

They were also total shit when the games were TOTALLY uneven. They put all the heavily geared, more experienced guys on one team, and the kiddes on the other, and me and my bro were stuck with the kiddies. We literally couldnt leave our spawn without getting lit up, and it didnt help that they werent calling their shots. Pathetic.

Unfortunately I'm going back there Sunday cuz its the only place my friend likes to go to. Will report back then.

I recently took apart my cybergun famas to work on the gearbox and custom paint it, but for the life of me I cant seem to put it back together, mostly because of the secondary safety located in front of the trigger thats used to detach the hand guard. Does anyone have any photos, diagrams, or anything to help me out? Most disassembley videos I've found dont take apart the trigger mechanisms.

Thanks guys!

I don't like it too much, the staff are absolute pricks, but its my bros favorite place to go so I just go with him. I'm just happy to play airsoft with my friends.

Yeah I've been doing that, but there aren't many, and most are just disassembly showing what kind of gears are in it and such

So I recently got the cybergun famas, and I play at vanguard who require me to have an FPS of 330 or lower. The gun chronos  at 350+ with the factory spring, so I went to change it out, but when I opened it up it just... exploded. I spent a good 8 or so hours piecing everything together from simply figuring out how it worked, I had no idea of the parts original placing. I'm positive I got it all in the correct spot when the red negative wire detached from the motor, so when I tried testing out to see if it worked, it didnt. Not even the hum of the motor running.

I don't know if its simply a wiring issue, I completely fubar'd the gearbox internals, or both. Any ideas on what I should do? Or does anyone know of any repair shops that know how to work on V1 gearboxes? Any help at this point would be appreciated.

I waited a good 5 or so months to get this gun, its my first major airsoft gun and I'm starting to seriously get into airsofting, so this is a huge disappointment for me. All I wanted to do was change the spring. Its been a really terrible day and I just want to fix it. If anyone needs pictures or anything of the gearbox just ask.

I'm switching out the default hand guard with a tac rail and adding a fore grip, so maybe that will help me a bit :V

I was recently looking into purchasing a G&G FN200, however a friend of mine told me that they only accept G&G M4 midcaps. If true, what differentiates the G&G midcaps from other midcaps to make it so that only they fit in the FN2000? Is it possible to mod my FN2000 to make it accept other M4 midcaps? Thanks

Hello, I've been a big fan of airsoft but never knew there were any real airsoft events that happened in arizona, I didn't think it was that big of a sport until I went to Sabo Con and met the... I'm gonna get their name wrong... 49th grenadiers? Great guys, very helpful and friendly, and they directed me to this site.

I am soon purchasing a G&G FN2000 in tan with a tac rail in replacement of the hand guard, making it an FN2000 Tactical. I've only really played at vangaurd because, like I said, I never even knew there were that many arizona airsofters. I hope to soon join in large mil sim games in the future and better myself as an airsofter.
