Skara Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 1 hour ago, warlord said: Sling is not essential. Very useful for sure. By game 2 I realised my inner arm ached from lugging the rif about. But if you're renting you'll need to pick a sling that can attach to the gun. For example I couldn't attach an Magpul MS3 clip onto a G36 as the clip was too big. Probably the same on an MP5. So not all slings fit all guns. MS2 seems to be the one to fit everything I've tried so far, M4, AK, MP3 and G36. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Tactical-Mission-Sling-MS2-3-Adjustable-Multi-Point-Airsoft-Paintball-Sling-UK-/172813436848?var=&hash=item283c7bc7b0 Issue easily solved by 2 pieces of paracord Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Careless Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 in regards to the face mask , my local sites are all fairly cqb based and getting shot in the head point blank {does happen in certain situations} is not nice! which is why i changed from regular face mask over to a fencing style mask , which covers the whole head , i run a ghille balaclava over it , the mesh offers good ventilation over something like a shemage and the mesh can be formed/bent by hand to your face on your scope side so you can still use a scope nicely , i would also purchase a large foam packed gun case {atleast a double gun not single!} has to be big! mines a double and carrys my main , my pistol , all mags , scope and bits n bobs , so handy just being able to close it and throw it in the car or open it up on site + its water proof and nothing can move around inside when closed ..

Supporters jcheeseright Posted January 3, 2018 Supporters Share Posted January 3, 2018 a shirt will be fine when playing providing you move around, you'll obviously need some kind of fleece/jacket when not playing though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
