  1. As I am unable to airsoft, I might as well scratch that itch by writing even more. This time I go into whether you should go for budget or premium for a few things: eye protection, RIFs and tactical gear.

     

    Spoiler alert: I like premium... *looks at all the TM RIFs and Warrior Assault Systems gear...*

      After The Geardo Crow's article on clones, I've reconsidered my position on WAS.

      Yes for the price you get decent quality but all they did was copying.

       

      I do agree with you on "buy once cry once". Although in some cases getting the real deal just isn't economically feasible (take Italy for example, everything RS costs a fortune just because ReEl OpOr8UrRrSsS Uze DeM), for example my latest purchase, a TMC copy of the Safariland 579.

      Bought it for two reasons:

      The real one is impossible to find here, and before dropping €100+ on a holster I wanted to make sure it would fit me in terms of placement and drawing method (has a weird middle finger activated retention that takes a minute to get used to). If I like it, I'll buy the real deal.

       

      Other than that, genuine kit holds its value really well, as you can see from the price tags 2nd hand Crye stuff has.

       

      A nice article btw, in line with what I expect from an airsoft blog :)

      Keep up the good work mate ;)
