    JamesAirsofterAgent reacted to Russe11 in Best guns to have!...yes..I said it...please comment with your favourite loadout etc!   
    Judging by your posts, avatar and PM's I think this is what you're after:

    ASG Sten Mk2, Belgian Denison smock, Denim battledress, P37 webbing and anklets...
     
    My Favourite though is my Aussie gear, similar but with this jacket and hat

    plus a gas mask bag, tan boots and using my SMLE
     
    OR
    The hat with green shirt, US HBT trousers, M1938 lace up gaiters, P37 webbing, SMLE or Sten for a late war jungle look.

    My favourite load out is my own.
    Built it up to my own specifications and requirements.

    if by that you mean "can I give my mum £100 and ask her to buy me a 2-tone" then yes, that's completely legal.

    If it's a WW2 game, I will be knackered from the game, hungover from the post game social and tired from not sleeping well in my tent, which you can guarantee I pitched on top of some hidden rock. I then have to get home by train carrying everything before dumping everything in a pile and falling into bed.
    By comparison, a normal skirmish is easy. The last one I did, I had a 15 mile cycle to get there, having gotten up at 5am. I was carrying a Lee Enfield and a sten (2 rather heavy guns). Did a day's skirmish in blistering heat, then cycled to the nearest train station (about 5 miles). Everyone else was complaining they were knackered from the skirmish!
    I don't really worry about what I could have done better, for me its about having fun. I just find that I'm in a good mood for a few days after a game.
     
    My standard gear:
    Pattern 37 webbing, which I wear.
    Lee Enfield in a canvas Valise bag
    Sten with stock removed fits in a large P37 pack
    Ammo, speedloaders and sten mags fit in P37 webbing pouches (possibly chocolate as well).
    2 pairs of goggles, gas, 3 batteries for the Sten (it burns through batteries) in small P37 pack (inside Large pack for a skirmish or worn with a shoulder strap if taking camping gear)
     
    Camping gear for WW2 games:
    Foam Mat, sleeping bag and Goretex bivvi bag all rolled up together ( I used to take a tent but this saves space and weight).
    Mini Trangia + meths
    Coffee, milk and sugar
    Enamel mug
    Spare socks (I can handle 2-3 days in the same clothes but clean socks are a must)
    Tins of spam and oatcakes for lunch break
    Bacon and bread for breakfast
    BEER! (last game I carried a small keg to the game, I was popular)
    Hurricane lamp + Parafin
     
    I have to be able to carry all this, to and from stations or whilst riding a bike. It does however give an idea of what it would be like for an actual soldier in WW2 when on the move.
     
    During the game, I will carry 1 gun, sten mags if I'm using the sten, speedloaders pyros and possibly chocolate in my webbing; spare goggles, gas and ammo in small pack. If I wear a gas mask bag, ammo and speed loaders go in it for faster access.

    Knackered. Otherwise I wasn't doing it right!
     
    More recently my feet are particularly sore leading me to believe the search for decent boots will be continuing.
     
    It does usually leave me ready to just book another day straight off or buy yet more bits that I really, really need!
     
    But I ALWAYS take too much stuff with me - exhibit A
     

     
    Two multi gun bags (three rifles, pistol and grenade launcher), enormous bag of stuff and a coolbag full of water/monster/goodies. All for a day at the Malls.

    Let me re-phrase my point in that case;
     
    No one has ever had a policeman walk into their house without there being a reason for it, see a gun, say, "SHOULD THAT BE BLUE?" for you to then stupidly say, "Erm, yeah" and which point he'll go, "YOU'RE NICKED SANSHOINE!"
     
    Doesn't happen.

    I remember vaguely a member on here was told by someone on a skirmish day that they "had a Junior ukara" which we all knew was complete bollocks.

    A lot of sites will require a responsible adult to be with you on game day if you are under 16. You may have to persuade a parent, older brother/sister or friend of the family to play or hang around the site all day.

    You are 100% able to play airsoft, Some sites; specifically milsim sites sometimes won't allow younger players to play.
    Most if not all skirmish sites will.
     
    Me and Lord_Metile are both 14 and active members of the forums. There are most likely others but I don't know the age of 90% of other forum users.

    Though If you're really wanting a gas pistol, have a look at the ASG MK23, cheap, accurate and reliable. Though you'll be spending a lot on gas, magazines, holster ect.

    As Monty says the only thing worth having in that budget is a double eagle tri-shot. Save up a bit more, you'll be much more satisfied.

    Well, any airsoft gun under £60 will be good for things other than skirmishing.
     
    Have a cheeky look at the Double Eagle tri shots, great fun and can stand its ground at a skirmish.

    Morning guys!
     
    My name is Jamie and i am completely new to airsoft and after doing loads of research and then finally playing it for myself i now realise how amazing it is!
     
    I am fascinated by how large the Airsoft world and community is and i am glad to now be a part of it.
     
    I have looked through these forums and i can clearly see that there is a lot of knowledge and experience in these forums and i hope i can learn from them.
     
    Thats all for now folks!
