2 Lions Claw Events in New York: http://www.oplionclaws.com/

I didn’t mention any Massachusetts events in this episode just because of the timing of the podcast release and when the events were taking place. Nothing personal, Mass. – I had to go away for a wedding in Oklahoma so I had some time constraints.

Assessment Review #1 was on TSD SD-87 multi-shot shotgun

Assesment Review #2 was on the KJW M9 GBB Pistol

In Tricks of the Trade – Part 1 we talked about airsoft magazines. Here’s a photo of the mag fix that helped my Jing Gong mags load more effectively with my Classic Army M15A4.

In Tricks of the Trade – Part 2 we chatted with Zach from Airsoft Reports. Check out his site for great, detailed reviews of airsoft guns and some gear.
