WWII 3rd armored 36th armored infantry airsoft team

Postby Starkist » Wed Jul 16, 2008 12:58 pm

Any one interested in forming a 3rd armored 36th armored infantry airsoft team. I envision that this team would also participate with our current 3rd armored unit in the RPS. The current goup participates in WWII reenactments in the NW.

You must be willing to procure the basic WWII kit and correct WWII airsoft weapons.

The Reenacting unit currently has a M20 armored scout car, 3 jeeps, two BMW R-71 motorcycles and a 37MM AT gun.

We have a WWII reenactment in mid August

If interested PM me

Thanks

Jim

Hellmutt,

August 9th and 10th. I should have been more clear, the event in August is a WWII event with blanks not airsoft. I am trying to start an airsoft group and hope to put on an event in the near future. The idea is to be able to do both types of events(airsoft and blank gun reenacting)

We, Titan1Tactical, are interested in renting the vehicles w/your drivers, of course. Any interest in running them around Rilea this August?

We have reenacted at Rilea for years but typicaly don't rent our stuff out. It's spendy to move the M-20 to the coast($500+)as it's 20,000 lbs

The event dates are the 9th and 10th of August. Just so everyone is clear, this is a reenactment with blanks not airsoft. If I have intrest then we will put on an airsoft event later in the summer near Estacada

You're a few months late kwood. Also, this was a blanks reenactment, not an airsoft one.
