HI. Brand new to Airsoft. Just bought my first AEG, a KWA EVE 9. Just wondering if there's anything I need using it. Or am I good to go?

If you have an AEG, a battery, some ammo, eye protection and a legal place to use it in, you're good to go.

 

* I'd always recommend a sling

 

** You may want extra magazines

 

*** A battery charger is quite important too

The only thing I'd do to the gun is clean the barrel with some isopropyl alcohol on a swab - hopefully you got a cleaning/unjamming rod with it.

The last gnu I bought new took about 5 fresh swabs of isopropyl to clean it out properly. I don’t believe that manufacturers have any real QC checks when assembling. The inner barrel was black with machine oil and grime! 
 

ABSOLUTELY & DEFINITELY clean the inner barrel as your first job
