    That's an issue in the US - you're stuck at 300 because of insurance stuff. Elsewhere - here, Europe, etc., we can shoot 50 cal at about 350. Reason being it still doesn't really hurt (I think you...

    Mm.

    So in other news, will anyone else be watching the OWL finals soon? It's almost impossible to watch, but still better than watching paintball so I can live with that.

    I use keepass just at work where I have over fifty passwords, but I don't use it for personal stuff.

    So I had no idea that water can get through plastic. That's interesting.

    Rental masks are crap. How can we do better?

    My local field use Switch FS masks with thermal lenses. When they get moisture between the panes (which they all do), they fog up in use. The fog can't be wiped off, meaning the punters are just...
