GBBR is the future. I always let people with AEGs have a few shots with mine just to see their faces light up when they feel that sweet recoil action. I love mine and it shoots great on 0.3g bbs. I always run six 30 round mags and a few speed loaders, so I can reload really quickly in the field. Breaks between games then gives me a chance to gas my mags and fill my speed loaders so I rarely find myself running out of ammo. Don't worry about being outgunned. Once you have adjusted your game to semi auto only, you will find that 30 bbs can actually go a long way. Doing the basics of actually aiming and trying to pick your shots before you pull the trigger with increase the odds of hitting the target and reduce how many shots you need to take. .

Try using Nuprol 1.0 gas before you start butchering your lovely rif. It has a lower PSI than your standard green gas.

The more I look this, there more I want it.

A WE G36 is a good starter gun. However, make sure it has a NPAS fitted as it can run super hot. Also, the mags are much thicker than standard M4 type mages so you would need to buy bigger pouches to fit them in. When I use GBB's in game, I normally take six mags in with me, which means the extra expense of buying them. I suppose you can get away with four mags if you are conservative with shots and have cover to hide behind when you are reloading. Then there is the gas, you will needs a few different power types depending on the time of year you play. So it all adds up. BUT, the most important thing with GBB's is that they are super fun and once you start playing with them, you won't want to ever go back to using AEG's.

A gen 3 Glock 17. probably

You local field will usually have someone there who is good at trouble shooting for you. It could be a simple fix but until you get someone to look at it, you won't know.

The KWA MP9. It's only a little bit bigger than a pistol and they are about £200. However, the mags run about £50 each.

I just use an Altoids mint tin with tissue paper to stop the rattle

I have a Gen 3 416A5 and it has a NPAS fitted. The one ones for the Asian market didn't have. Unless I have been conned and was given a Gen 2 instead? Either way, mine is brilliant and is the best gun I own. I just run mine stock and give it a good clean between games.

What is practicle shooting? Ive seen those vids of people running round courses and shooting targets that would appear to very impractical have nothing to do with anything you would encounter in real life, i.e someone trying to actively kill you. Im not saying its not fun like.

I run few GBB's As mentioned before my MP9 has a low power bolt fitted so never runs hot. My VFC 416A5 came with a factory fitted NPAS, adjusting it involves taking the bolt out and using a small allen key down the nozzle to adjust it. It's quite a simple process due to how easy and quickly an AR style rifle can be broken down. My WE39 has an NPAS fitted (paid extra to have it fitted by the shop) which is more of a pain as you have to break the rifle down to get the bolt out, then you need use a small screw driver to stop the NPAS from spinning while using a tool to open or close the NPAS. It can take a while to do this proceedure. However much a pain in the arse it is, you need and NPAS to run a GBB through out the year. If it's warm, my G39 can easily run over 450 fps if I dont take the time to adjust the NPAS. The other thing you can do is use different powered gas depending on the ambient temperatures.

I have a pair of the Addida Terrex. Personally I find them very comfortable and don't have any issues with my feet after a day running about the woods with them. They are nice and light and reasonably flexable. I dont use any additional insoles in them, but there is space in them if you wanna add some.

I have cammo'ed up my gun with the liberal use of Jack Pike tape and fake leaves. It's very brown out there at the moment so it should blend in with the environment.

I run a Dye I4 and have only ever had it fog up once in all the years I have been using it. It was on a warmish but extremely humid and wet day when I was running round like a maniac. I solved that issue with a bit of anti fog spray. However, they are little bulky which means that I can struggle lookinng down the sights of some rifs I use (I can't see through the built in scope of my Aug A1 for example). Other rifs are fine (No problems using sights of my Famas) if I use a ris rail mount that raises the hight of any red dots I use. But otherwise, they offer great protection which cover your mouth and ears.

Love the XM177
