Kaneweeks Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 I always say get another gun, just to be on the safe side if something was to go wrong with yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hibernator Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 What he said ;-) No point in upgrading if it works fine - ICS are pretty solid out of the box, so if you're happy with the performance then leave it alone. Definitely a good idea to save up for a backup gun, having one gun (not matter how reliable) leaves you open to having your day ruined if it fails. A second one to leave in the safe zone is always worth it. Get one that takes the same mags (I think the G33 is M4 mags) and you won't need to buy any extra kit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Army3.5 Posted March 11, 2013 Author Share Posted March 11, 2013 haha funny you should say get a back up gun, my g33 packed up last night only a month old aswell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
two_zero Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 hmn an other thread here seems to suggest an backup gun aswell.. thou, do you have a laser and a red dot, just a laser or just a red dot? If not, get a red dot, they are great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaneweeks Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 You can never be too sure, I have 3 guns at a skirmish at any given time, just to be sure. Good luck sorting out your G33 mate, hope it gets fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suzuki Yamamoto Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 On what to buy next, defo go for a back up gun and taking 3 guns to a skirmish is in no way excessive. At my last skirmish my primary and back up BOTH broke! Luckily I had my pistol and it was a CQB venue, otherwise I would've gone home with the hump. If you've got enough kit for your gun, what about your loadout? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you've got enough kit for your gun, what about your loadout? The exact problem happened to me, not too long ago! Sniper started slam firing and my m4 stripped it's gears! Both out of action, resorted to using my first ever m4, who I like to call "old faithful". Loadout is important too! I've always got spare mags, batteries, safety glasses and ammo on me at all time, just incase shi* hits the fan. I'd definitely recommend getting at least 3 batteries and 3 hi-cap mags as well, but that's personal preference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suzuki Yamamoto Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 last game "aaaaaah, cant be bothered taking a sidearm".. my aeg somehow gained 30 fps. hence hot I remember you walking back from the chrono saying it was hot. I need to either get a new backup gun or pull it apart for myself (note to self - haven't got a clue what i'm doing when taking it apart). Should be fun!

Supporters Ian_Gere Posted March 12, 2013 Supporters Share Posted March 12, 2013 Have you got a decent battery charger? Foregrip? As someone said, red dot? Happy with your boots? Gloves? Eyepro, mask? Knee and/or elbow pads? Comms? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tariq Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Go for the essentials. Spare batteries, gloves boots etc as ian as said. Spare backup gun would be nice. Always have my trusty KWA MP7 on me. For when the G36 decides to set fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knee and/or elbow pads? Comms? Decent boots are a must have!! I would happily pay £50+ for a pair of boots, I know, will support my ankle fully and protect my feet. I made the mistake of buying 'cheapo' boots when I first started out, I had a blood blister on the edge of my toe, which is still here today.. 1 and a half years later!! For a battery charger I would recommend iMax B6. Its a multiplatform charger, giving you quick charge and slow charge capabilities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
