My local site lets us use whatever we join in with his main booking groups using egos,protos all high end stuff and for this priviledge he charges us £20 for a whole day site fee and we can take are own paint or buy it of him for trade prices
aint life grand

Wow, what a way to annoy customers into never coming back again

I dont think you should be allowed to use your own gats on customer days as if you can lay down much more firepower than they can then they're going to think its unfair (which it is) and probably not want to come back..

The site that I work at lets people use their own gats if they're low end mech markers, but nothing else. And all of the customers in the group have to agree to it, if anyone objects they'd just have to use one of the site automags.

never incountered that problem in fact a lot of people keep bringing their mates down to play we let his bookings use ur guns in games and have a go with them all ( see i'm trying to develop outside interest in this sport )we also do stupid stuff like 30 v 2 of us and they still canna work out why we win My mate takes his armotech down there and when they play storming the fort he alternates between the two sides as there sniper and they love it

simple answer is there is no hard and fast rule....phone the site you plan to play at and ask them!

i regularly play with my own gear on punter days (ir3 & e1) but it is arranged with site operator before hand and i usually go with a bigish group, about15 to 20, as long as you dont go mad i cant see a problem but speak to the site owner/operator before hand.

Look at it from the "punter's" point of view, you have a site inferno and keep getting blow to pieces by a guy with an EGO.

Are you happy, will you go back to that site, are you going to hit the guy who just shot you and five of your mates.

Punter hunting is so called for a very good reason, its no fairer on the quarry than shooting an un-armed rabbit.

That being said there is a big difference in punter hunting with a mech spyder and an EGO6.

ps : Hunting armed rabbits is way cool though !

What site is it? If it's a Bedlam or Delta Force then answer will almost definately be no.

The easiest way would be to phone and ask rather than have people speculate on here. Only way to be sure an avoid disappointment on the day.

never had problems using own markers at the newcastle delta force, been going for 2 year, quite a few people use there own, they marshals take your marker into practice area then chrono, then you free to play...

i go to the same site, we always ask the customers if they wana join in with us, if they dont we just take it in turns and play 10 min games, if they do wana join in we slpit the teams to make it fair and give them a chance, its not like we are there to prove some thing, and if they hit us it makes them feel good. we have never had any problems before.

Fair enough if the groups are checked with first, but that's not the original post saying that they allowed you to use whatever you want with their main booking groups didn't actually say that.

i've personally never had a problem at my 3 local sites. but the paint costs really outweighs the taking my own markers. but at the site i train at the punters normally end up inviting us to play with the team that are losing.

at my own stag do i refused to use my own marker even though i was told i could... thought it was a bit unfair that they were using site guns and i was going to end up using my e'd cocker
