Airsoft Events: Operation Black Shield

Hey airsofters! Grim here with a quick update on an upcoming airsoft only event: Operation Black Shield. SC Village held this event last year, so I'm guessing the scenario, field availability and other good stuff will be the same.

So far, SC Village has only released the briefest of promo videos for it, which you can view below, but the event is to be held on July 14th through the 15th. You can purchase a one day ticket for $50.00 or a two day pass here (scroll to the very bottom for the two day option). Two day entry on the day of the event will be $95.00, so my suggestion is to preorder for $70. Here is a rundown of how the weekend will be broken down:


Itinerary

Saturday - July 14th, 2012

0700-0930: Registration Begins/Chrono Open
0930-1000: Safety Brief
1000-1400: Battle 1 Begins
1400-1500: Lunch Break
1500-1800: Battle 2 Begins
1800-1930: Resupply (Dinner Break)
1930-2000: Night Operations Safety Brief
2000-???: Night Operations Begin

Other necessary info:

Campsite Parking: $15.00
RV Parking: $20.00
Outfit Restrictions:
US Special Forces & Allies- Any Desert Camo
Liberation Army - Any Woodland Camo
Note: No Black Uniforms Allowed on Either Team



If you plan on attending the event, here are a few suggestions to make your long game weekend more comfortable:


  • Hydrate! If you've ever played at SC Viper during the summer, you know that Chino gets HOT. A camel pack is practically mandatory and bring plenty of sports drinks and water to refill it. 
  • If you plan on attending both days, you can purchase a camp permit for $15.00 and park your vehicle overnight. This saves on gas and you can mingle with your teammates. There are also a couple of motels within driving distance should you need to shower. And for God's sake, please shower. 
  • Bring spare AEG's. Unless you're a tech and can fix your own guns, I suggest bringing at least one backup weapon and spare batteries. 
  • Ankle support! Because of the varied terrain, good ankle support and comfort are a necessity. At my last two day event, I ended up leaving early because I took a spill and nearly broke my ankle. SO in a word...BOOTS
That's it for now, airsofters! These overnight events are usually a lot of fun, so I hope to see you there! As always, play safe, play hard and call your hits!

Shit Airsofters Say

Hah! Another great video from the guys over at Evike's channel on Youtube. I would have liked to see someone walking around asking if anyone had seen their grenade or some kids yelling that airsoft is just like Call of Duty. I always look forward to Evike's new videos because they usually try and throw some humor in there, which I appreciate. If you get a chance, subscribe to their channel and stay in the loop on some of their new products, events and reviews.

As always folks, play hard but play safe. Always wear full face and eye protection when playing airsoft and never, ever, ever, ever, ever take your airsoft guns out in public.
