Black Death's loadout looks ace.

 

I play woodland so I do camo (now DPM) but if I was playing CQB i'd follow his example & go for some mad combinations

My loadout is based of marines force recon, but is still a work in progress. For example I now have 5 guns and no mag pouches for them.

 

Also I say based of as the clothing/hear is going to be orientated around but not spot on and I know for certain my boots are wrong but hey who cares. Also only one of my rifs is the actual one that mfr use but it won't be when I get round to customising it.

 

So overall get a inspiration then change it to suit yourself

I wear what works for me. So my boots, combat trousers (MTP/DPM/OD), a multicam thigh holster and a tan magpul polo shirt. If its a bit colder I might throw a shirt or jacket on over the top. I've got a set of PLCE for milsim games and a lightweight chest rig for when I can be asked to carry all the magazines for my rifle.

Mine is based on my ability to blend into the background. I blend DPM, MTP, olives, tan and black. If you can see me, I've failed.

It's that simple.

I carry 2 m4s and an M9. Why? Because it's my style.

You start with cheap DPM and a cheap bog standard tactical vest etc. Then you decide there's a problem with it:

-I don't look cool/badass enough.

-I have money in my bank account, this can't be right, I must spend it.

-Land warrior airsoft had sten guns for £100 so I bought one and for some reason I cannot find molle Sten magazine pouches anywhere.

All of these are serious problems, which need to be addressed. There is however help at hand, all you need to do is build your 1st proper loadout.

If you don't look cool/badass enough, then you need to decide who does look cool/badass. It could be a military unit, a film or video game character etc.

If you accidentally bought a gun that doesn't match your loadout, then you need to work out who would have that gun. Then you need to spend ages on the internet. If your wife/girlfriend/mother etc. starts asking questions or looking at what you're doing be ready to cover everything by switching to a decent porn site, it's easier to explain and they won't moan about the money you are about to spend. Once you know what gear you will need, start buying it bit by bit but under no circumstance should you ever keep any sort of tally of how much you spend. It may take weeks, it may take months but gradually you will piece everything together. You will become close friends with the postman and various couriers into the process.

Eventually you will have your 1st loadout and you will wear it to a skirmish. Everyone will be amazed by how cool it looks and you will tell amusing anecdotes about what you had to go though to get some bits of it. Unfortunately, theres a problem...

After a few weeks, everyone you play regularly with has seen your loadout before, your bank account has started to recover, you miss your friends Jeff the postman and Steve the ParcelForce guy and to be honest, your starting to think that your Russian Spetnaz ballerina loadout doesn't quite look as badass as you thought it would so you start all over again.

I like wearing uncommon load-outs and camos those that you don't often see on a day out in among all the Multicams, DPM's and such .. Multiland, MarPat, UCP and Chinese PLA camo .. I like to be different and unique I guess .. Camo only works to a fashion in Airsoft ... Hell I even have Pink Camo BDU's from the USA for NAE this year ..
