Airsoft Essentials!

[-Archer-]

Just thought this might be useful for newer players and interesting to see what other people add! Please note: This is just my opinion, not fact. So it's up to you if you want it or not.

- EYE PROTECTION! More important than the gun!
-An AEG
-A sidearm. GBB is always nice.
- Camo gear e.g trousers, shirt/jacket, vest/rig
- Decent boots to prevent injury
- Gloves
- Mags for AEG and Sidearm
- Batteries for AEG
- BB's
- Gas (if applicable)
- Holster for Sidearm. Drop leg, hip or MOLLE attachement

Now for non-essential, but useful items.

- Kit Bag
- Extra protection e.g knee pads, elbow pads, helmet, face protection etc
- Spare gun just in case you develop a problem with your primary during the day.
- Accessories for your gun e.g Red dot sight, Suppressor, Grip etc
- Sling for primary weapon. Useful for when you draw your sidearm or mag changes.
- Dump pouch. Temporary storage for empty mags

I know that I'll have missed stuff out so please feel free to add stuff.
I hope this has helped any of you newbies out there

Re: Airsoft Essentials!

I'd say a kit bag is pretty essential if people need to travel to and from sites on public transport - the more discrete, the better!

But you've pretty much covered it there I think.

Oh... and money haha, that's pretty damn essential :P

Not trying to have a moan but I said add stuff, not take away stuff.

Like I said, It's my opinion, not fact.

Re: Airsoft Essentials!

Radio's are a great help in the field. I've only just started using one and already notice the benefits. Good shout.
