I've heard it's possible to make a DIY chrono. Not sure how good it is though.
I've also heard of using an iPod/iPhone as a chrono with some sort of app. I'll search it up to find out.

More info!
I asked Jeremy (the owner/manager of Crossfire) a couple questions in an email. Here is the Q&A.
Q1: How much will airsoft games cost for everyone to play?
A1: How much do other places charge? I've never thought about it for air soft, since you will basically bring everything you need, right? Maybe $10-$15 each depending on the number of players. I would say $10 each for a first trial game if you want to come out and see how it goes.
Q2: Do you sell any airsoft products such as BBs, gas (CO2, compressed, or green gas), etc? Plus do you have outlets in your staging/safe area for us to charge AEG batteries on?
A2: We don't have airsoft gear, if the tanks are like paintball tanks we can fill compressed air, but I think they use a different tank if I'm correct. We do have power to charge the batteries, that won't be a problem.
Q3: Would you be interested in letting my team or another host airsoft games regularly at your field if we could get a certain amount of players each time?
(Dramatic pause... TV be like, we'll be right back after this break)
A3: I think making it a regular thing sounds great. The more often and the more players the cheaper we could do it too.
I think f*^k yeah. What do you all think? Would you like to help run some rec games out in Holland every once in awhile?
When do y'all want to have a game out there, you think?

Did you even read #1? We are trying the field out first. If we enjoy it, we (and possibly SABR) will help Jeremy run airsoft games regularly. Please don't expect to be paid for helping. I know it's tempting but I'm just saying. We can play a game or two there, then decide. If we decide we want to help, I will tell Jeremy, and since he owns the field and all that, he will be 1st in command of what's going on (unless he appoints someone else to do so). After a couple games of helping host them, we can ask him if he'll pay us. Just think for the future. If you ask too early, we'll "be coming on too strong". I think I understand how people work, Raptor. I know you're the team leader, but I'm trying to make this a professional "relationship" between us and Crossfire. I hope you and everyone else sees what I mean. |

So joker can you also ask him how big the fields are cause I don't want guys showing up with 541.0FPS guns and then they can't use them due to it being to small. Also ask him if we can sell airsoft supplies like BBs Propane, and whatever else people need like food.

Yeah, we got the time to ask questions, but if y'all got questions for Jeremy or myself, ask them as soon as you can. I'd like to have questions be done with for Jeremy soon so we aren't pestering him. I will ask him. I'm sure when we start hosting rec games regularly, he'll invest in supplies for people to buy. |
