| Who is going to outbreak omega 3? |
| I went to 'part 2" last year and while "interesting" it was a huge cluster fuck. They were no where near prepared for the number of people that showed up. I ended up doing nearly all my shooting at the open range. The one pistol course and two rifle courses had 2+ hour wait times... So unless DPMS comes up with a much more efficient set up this year, I'll pass. |

It was too fun! The lines were too long, but I still had a blast. Met a lot of really nice people from 5 different states. Ran through the paper
stages a few times, but shooting the reactive targets was by far my favorite. I'm registered and looking forward to going again this year. Not sure of my load out this time around, but not sure I'll trim it down either. |
| I think the mistake I made was that I didn't bring the 870. There were NO lines on the shotgun course. Maybe I'll do that this year afterall... As the previous poster mentioned, despite the long lines it was fun and just cool seeing everyone of "us" all decked out in our gear. My dad, who isn't into as much as I am, was very very surprised at how geared up everyone was. |
Ever shoot a shotgun at Zombies in a House? hmmmmmm at OO3 you will get ready everyone there are Lots of goodies this year! More stages More stuff start working on your go bag its almost time

I thought it was organized pretty good, except for the raffle, that went too slow. I was in no rush to complete the stages, just liked enjoying the day and relaxing. |

Yes!

I didn't think the wait was that bad, but I had a plan based on the first year. We got there right away in the morning, hit the rifle stages and the first pistol stage with minimal wait while everyone else was standing around picking their noses. By then all the pokey folks had finally wandered over, and there was quite a wait for the second pistol stage. After that, we went over to the shotgun area, and there was very little wait for any of those. Then I hung out for a while by the tents, wandered back over to the rifle/pistol area to see what was going on over there, then went back and waited for the prize drawings. I bet we had to kill about 2-3 hours after we'd shot all the stages. My dad was in town visiting, and I bought him a full set of stage tickets, and he only used a few of them, so I actually shot most of the shotgun stages twice. |

I will be there! Last year was fun, but the 2+ hour for the stages were testing. There will be more stages. I am excited! My brother has thought up some anti zombie tec that will be awesome! He has been preping since last outbreak! You would not believe the list of sponsers this year,way more then last year! |

Quoted: Can someone post the equipment/guns list in terms of requirements? I don't own BDUs, Camelbaks, tactical load bearing vests, or a Ghillie suit...but I have guns and ammo! What do i need to have fun? Are both days required attendance for the door prizes? All you really need is something to carry your stuff. Anything beyond a plastic garbage bag or large pockets is gravy. |

Quoted: To those that are going, should we all organize and become like some team or something? Some people do the team/squad thing. I just brought my son again, and my dad was in town so he tagged along. Some people really get into it. There were a few groups with uniforms, and even one group that had patches, radios, the whole 9 yards. It would be fun, but you can tell they put more time, effort, and money into it than I'd realistically be able to. Hell, I'm just hoping I can score the weekend off from work. |

I saw those pictures, I was thinking just getting the Z.R.T. and an AR15.com Patches and doin it that way. Maybe even getting name tapes with screennames. |

I couldn't it imagine being worse the first year. WOW. I argree, the raffle was ridiculous. What was the deal with just throwing shit into the crowd? I wasn't impressed with that fiasco at all. Someone mentioned more stages and sponsors. Who, what, etc? |
