Hey all I've fancied airsoft for ages and since I've found out I live 5 mins from an outdoor site I'm gonna give it a go... Need to think about gear !

 
just a pair of boots or trainer boots and hire is best advice

it ain't as expensive as paintball to try it out for a day

bag of ammo is like a tenner for 5,000 bb's - plenty for 2 days shooting

don't rush out and buy a 2-tone pile of crap from a website with BB in its name ffs

you need to spend £100 to £150 on a starter gun - but try it first

stuff like a full face mask will be supplied - probably G36 gun

all you need is a pair of boots & a bit of common sense for safety

get out there & get shooting

 
Hi from Hartlepool!

Get yourself down to rifleworks airsoft sometime. They're having their opening day tomorrow, and not far from Durham. :)

 
Welcome to the forum mate. Only necessity for airsoft is good footwear and eye pro but usually if you wanna hire a gun it's a full package including a face mask for the day and coverall things. If you get into it there are lots of recommendations we have for starter guns dependant on budget but that can be saved for another thread - just as Duck said don't buy shit from JBBG. Look in the right places and you'll get much better service and far higher quality stuff for the same price or a bit more.

Similarly for kit there are tons of brands dependent on your budget what might be best. In terms of clothing you could just get MTP like loads of guys or if you wanna be different US M81 both are cheap the latter ain't so easily available. Will be cheaper for skirmishes once you get your own stuff together but would always recommend hiring for three games as you're seeing if you like it, you know more about t and then you can get your UKARA defence as well.

 
Cheers guys, do rifle works have a retail shop ?

Might pop down

 
They do run a store, but It's online only, AFAIK.
