New from Eastern Oregon

Postby Robeson » Thu May 08, 2014 10:22 pm

Howdy all,
I've been hanging around the forum for a couple months so I figured it was time to get around to introducing myself. I'm pretty new to airsoft (this weekend was my fourth event.) I used to play woods paintball back in college but found the durability and accuracy of replicas as well as the "Milsim" aspect of airsoft to be a lot more interesting than paintball can offer. I finally found a team that's based locally so I invested in some gear and my current plan is to keep an eye on the events calendar so I can drop in on events in the Portland area occasionally.

Welcome. May 24th is a good game at sniperzden. Also summer slaughter on july 13 (I believe). Both of these would be great games to go to. Located close to St. Paul which is on the other side of Woodburn from you...

Both game recommendations from Cyclops, are excellent recommendations. They will both offer a great opportunity to meet a fairly large part of the community, and for us to meet you.
BTW, where the hell is Irrigon?

Awesome! I'll keep those ones in mind and see if my work schedule will allow for one, thank you.

:lol: That's what I said the first time I was asked to go there. It's 180 miles east of Portland, about 6 minutes North of I-84, near Hermiston. Out in the boonies...

I drive out to Irrigon 2-3 times a fall to kill waterfowl.

Well howdy Scratch, good to know there are some other active airsofters in the local area, so far Pendleton and the Tri-cities were the nearest I was aware of!
