Find your local site, go there and rent - simple :D

Try before you buy!

An airsoft site is a good place to start. As for guns, not a chance for a RIF until 3 meets in more than 2 months is met, infact check this link out

As for other kit, check out MMUK at the top of the screen.

Re: Can someone walk me throught this :'(

If your site owns a shop there`s a chance you can talk them into letting you pay for the guns and keeping hold of them until you have played your 3 games and 2 months have passed. They cant really sell them too you but they can rent so I dont see why they cant "hire purchase" them to you but they would have to keep hold of them otherwise you`ll end up with a 2 tone or braking the law.

FIRST, - if you can see you can play
eye protection
get "good" comfy eye protection, if you are wearing glasses get goggles as they will fit soft and securely over your glasses.
best thing to do is look through reviews and ask other players if they can let you have a feel of their glasses as you are looking to buy.
DO NOT CHEAP OUT.


next,
Guns
what ever budget you have for a gun, doubble it as a guideline for all the stuff to keep it going e.g. battery and charger, gun bag, bbs and sights e.t.c.

look for a gun that has loads of aftermarket parts so if it breaks you can repair it. (optional)

battery and charger,
a big battery will keep you in play but if you get a crap charger it will take a day in some cases to charge when a good one will top up in hours
buy a good charger £20+ min

get 2 batterys (if you use your first battery in 10 mins,swithch the battery and go a little easier on that trigger finger)

congrats you are now poor and ready to play,
you can now move onto making you look the bees knees when you find a style you like.



if you wan't to get more protection get a face-gaurd first before knee pads and gloves (save the teeth.... wait, we're brittish):D
