Best Walk On in the UK???

Yup Foxwood Skirmish is a great site but the Website is not up to date. The fields have changed and are continuing to change during this year. So far we have a new bridge field, a trench complex field, a new outpost field oh and did I forget to mention the two a.p.c's that are currently sitting in the car-park waiting to be dragged out into the middle of the woods. Don't worry they will all be moved and set up in time for the June the 1st walk-on.
The crowd that do walk-on are a friendly bunch of souls [apart from the fennys:D :D ][only joking Little tone;) ] and most of us are quite happy to let you have a play with our shiney toys. And boy are there shiney toys running around. Loads of angels and tricked out cockers to lust over. After all this gets more people into the sport which can't be all bad.
There are a few teams who send down players to play. Mainly the F.M.R., Boston Stranglers & the Sinners [The sites tourney team] mind you don't be put off by the fact that you have tourney players running around. Were not 'Punter Hunters' [Well most of us aint;) ] and we see the Walk-ons as a giggle and a chance to get some balling in between tourneys.:D :D

well ive never seen any tourney players there:D but i have seen some shiney shirts:D :p
 
over I come then...

Looks like I'm gonna have to get a ferry booked up then and get my ass on over to that event then.... :D
sounds a great way to test some markers and maybe even have a few shots on markers I'll never be able to afford!
I'll try and restrict myself to trying ones I can afford - don't wanna get addicted to expensive tastes !! ;)

Yikes your going to cross the channel to visit a walk on. Wow that really is commitment. if you fail that you could pop over to Holland for the Dutch Master event in Amsterdam. You'll have all the tricked out markers you could ever want to see there and loads of friendly teams who will let you have a go with thier shinies.
Anybody remember what date this is because I can't [memory of a collander you see, now where did i leave my keyboard???];)
 
Amsterdam is not a walk-On its a BIG tourney event. Teams from all over the world attend so you get to see some class balling action from some of the best players in the world. Even though its a tourne event don't be put off, seeing as ballers are friendly people thell be sure to let you have a try of thier toys. Added bonus is that seeing as its a major event most of the marker manufacturers will have trade stands there so you can buy a new toy there and then.
Mind you I'm sure theres walk-on events in holland you need to get in contact with Buddha-3 on here hes the guy who knows all the ins and outs of the Dutch scene.
 
Thanks for the tip - I'll be in touch with budda then.... ;)

BTW - if you had a choice, what would you go for from the following?

Brand new spider shutter 160 sovs
Brand new JT 5.0 around the same cash
or a second hand automag, good for years old now, 4 barrels, air system, few other add on bits for 200 Sovs?

thx for your advice
