Playing in the US

Just wondering if anyone has played in the US. I would imagine that you could not take your own rifles and pistols which would be a really drawback.

Actually, you can it is just a matter of filling out the paperwork at the CBSA so you can get back in the country. On the other end depend on what state and or city you are traveling to; you need to check out the local laws. But if you were traveling to a big game event it would be obvious that Airsoft guns would be permitted in that state or city. (Example; if you planned to go to a Big Event in New York State you wouldn’t want to fly into JFK Int. technically that is in the City of New York and Full metal guns are not OK. So you would fly into New Jersey instead.) And of course to mitigate any hassles from the American Authorities having a TEMPORARY “ORANGE TIP” painted on would be needed.

Last summer a bunch of us went to the game in Calgary “Risky Sun II” we played with a team of hardcore TMS players. Their team name is “The Hand” I believe? Anyway I got talking with some of them after the Mil-Sim. They had just got back for Colorado and were heading to a game in Minnesota in three weeks. They were all Canadians based out of Calgary and travel 5 to 6 time a year to play in the states

I would like to get a game organized for SGB or LMAG to go to WA. State. There are a few big clubs down there.

Going down to the states to play would be a hell of a time, I'm sure though if the prices and availability to play and buy were the same here as in the states, we would always have big turnouts and Milsims

If it were easier to cross the border with airsoft gear I could see americans coming over to panther since it's not far from the border.

Claymore, I'd be super down for a SGB US trip in the new year.
Oh Herro Prease.
I've been around the lower mainland twice, shot everyone once.
No Glock I can't rock
no field fee too high
no drive too far
no SIM too long
no walk to hard
learned a lot of lessons on the field.
lunch is for pussies,
I've heard pistons strip
I seen players slip
I'm a marine I'm a seal, depending on how I feel
never use low quality bb's in a high quality gun
.20's are for chronoing
.12's are for kids
no enemy too far, no gear too queer
I wear more then I have
any gun worth hauling is worth overhauling.
I participate, I operate I don't discriminate,
I'm a rooting tooting bb shooting

I dont know about that....American seem to be funny about crossing the boarder. Even the one's in WA it seems to be a big deal for them.
