Well to every good side of a story there is a bad side.
 
After I came back from dinner on Saturday, I went down to the Deathstar to see what was wrong with the airplane.
As I got in the airplane I noticed my A-5 was gone.
I thought someone must have taken it up to the admin building but I notice that the nut that the foregrip screws into was still on the bolt that we use to attach to the plane.
So some asshatt yanted it free.
I believe that would have messed up the bottom of the reciever of the A-5.
They also got a carbon fiber 68\4500 tank that belongs to Battlefront.
It has flatline and rampage e-grip on it and a 450 round hopper.
Some people just suck.

That is sad that we are all out there to have fun and someone has to go and steal from someone that put on, In my opinion, the best day of paintball I have seen in quite some time.  My son and I unfortunately were witness to a few guys almost going to blows in the parking lot outside the field.  They were yelling and swearing about "I shot you first" and calling each other names.  I yelled at them both to go seperate ways and cool off.  It's just a game and were all here to have fun.  Anyways, if you do not get your A5 back, send me a PM.  I have an extra one I can donate to the field.

Man, I didn't get to go this year to D-Day, but my friend did and he said Battlefront was an amazing place and an amazing game.  I'm sorry to hear that someone decided to steal from a field that does so much for the players that show up on big game days.  I hope you guys are able to find the A-5 and the guy that took it.

yeah, like ranger said, we had all our stuff laying on the ground, and there was ALOT of stuff. maybe no one stole cause it was so out in the open somebody else would have noticed. there was somebody really creepy eyeing us and our stuff though. he stared at me for like 15 minutes while i watched our gear and felt EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE.Cry  sorry to hear about the A-5

Lobster, were you the ones with the girl that got pegged in the neck?    If so, we were parked a few spots away from you.  We talked with pretty much everyone around us and everyone was cool about watching everyons stuff.  The van next to us had a few markers laying out all day and nothing.  You would have thought that it would have been easier to pick that up as opposed to breaking the A5 loose from the aircraft.

Nope was not us. We parked right next to the chrono area but our ride didnt stay for the whole game. We came and left in a green porsche and my A-5 was there right next to a tree for just about the whole game and lobsters Tm7 was there too along with alot of other stuff...

I dont really remember. i think he had a hummer of some kind. or maybe not? idk, sorry it may not have even been the owner of the hummer who was staring at me. who ever it was, he walked pass me and our stuff a thousand times and i think he even went into the chrono area and watched us through the screen.

Well that's creepy...Can't believe someone would do that, I made it a point to talk to and associate with everyone around us to at least alleviate anyones urge to steal from us, and from what I can tell nothing was lost.  Most of us left our paint and drinks and food outside of the cars, but we locked our extra gear up just incase from stories we'd heard.

I'll keep an eye out on craigslist for that A-5 and PM you if I see anything.

yeah this is the type of stuff that makes me mad and gives areas a bad rep even if it is not there fault which it isnt.  and guys like blue lobster and all you that leave you gear laying around that is  REALY BAD IDEA lock it up!! I know sometimes you cant have everything locked up but at least like guns and hoppers tanks etc... thats are like back ups or whatever  lock them up.  hope you somehow get this gun back.

Well sorry to hear about the A-5 Booty. And if you happen to get another one, make sure to paint it purple. Like you once said, no one steals purple sh*t. And if they do, you'll know exactly who did it.
