Hey how many of you guys have a gps unit on your rig at big games or just the weekend games?  If so what make and model do you guys use?

I have some old Magellan that my uncle gave me. I only bring it to national OPs. I have all the other AOs memorized, give or take.

I’ve got a Magellan unit myself, but I haven’t used it at an op either…  There has been talk here about GPS usage for reaching hidden objectives, but I haven’t seen that come into play –yet!

I have a GPS unit in my rig. But I don't use it for airsoft.  In fact, I don't even play airsoft.  Where am I? What am I doing here?

I have a Garmin E-trex Vista.  I have yet to use it for airsoft however, just backpacking.  It works great though.

You guys probably know this, but a GPS is best used with a map, it's not THAT helpful by itself.  The maps that you can load on them dont end up being that detailed.  I would recommend getting one with an altimeter.
