Excellent choices.

Get at 0.25 or heavier BBs. Don't go for the plate carrier, it's very cumbersome. Get a chestrig or a molle belt or both. Helmet should be the last on your shopping list.

Get good boots, with good socks and maybe a gel insole for it.

 

Edit: Proffrink ninja'd me. :)

Thanks for the advise - What type of Chestrig/Belt are decent? I have seen some stuff but I am just getting used to the differences between the kit and what brands are better than others

 

This is the chest rig I was looking at:

In terms of boots - are we looking at hiking boots or proper military style boots? what brands of socks are worth looking at?

Boots, I'm still using my karrimor ones from first game, doing well but ideally need new ones, just make sure they are comfy, your in them for hours

Chestrig, Warriors 901 I can't fault, I have 2 with back panel, the open mag versions, elite 4. You have missed the recent 20% off I think but usually they come around again

 

 

Edit

Just checked and seems use is still in use

Would you say this is best bang for your buck over other brands chest rigs?

Nope, I just have a camelback on it, easy to take off when needed and use normal straps 🙂

I am now looking at the gladiator - This any decent? I men if you had to choose between the two? Gladiator (£99 - 20% = £79.20) or Warrior 901?(£129 - 20% = £103.20)

 

I understand the Gladiator is not customisable as much and not sure if you can use it standalone? sorry for all the questions - I am now and want to make sure I make smart purchases that will last

It looks fine, just doesn't have removable pouches or come with the additional ones.the 901 has, it's for Airsift so nothing to worry about

 

Maybe give them a call, ladies are really helpful, you may be able to try it and swap if nit happy

 

Where are you based, having to reply on phone at work as it blocks the site!!!!

 

I also have the CPC vest 🙂

I live in Ware, Hertfordshire - I spoke to them as they were out of stock of the Warrior 901 and getting a shipment today.

 

To be fair for the additional pouches I would need anyways the Warrior 901 is probably more cost effective when you look at pouches £10-£20 each

Just curious, I'm only in Cambridge, where do you play?

 

That's one reason I went for it, only had the closed version though at the time so had to wait for open pouches to arrive and get later

Currently nowhere - I have a few different groups of friends who play.

 

I have looked up and my local seems to be AWA Herts in Sawbridgeworth (Next to Harlow) which is 10 mins from me but open to travel - Want to get a UKARA licenses ASAP

Make sure the G36 mag fits in the pouch you choose. A single G36 mag will fit a double M4 pouch if there is no separator in it. Also the g36 mags has those things that clip them together and they catch on anything horizontal in the pouch. Elastic pouches won't work either. You can get an M4 magwell for the g36 though, that solves this problem.

Supposedly the JG G608 does not support the M4 Maxwell conversions - do you know if this is true?

 

What would be the best Warrior Chest rig to buy then for an G36 now with expansion possibly to M4 and other ARs?

 

***edit***

 

I have seen a Battle-axe converter that has had good reviews and seems to work with JG -

There is a G36 version which I am sure may be better off to get as it will fit the M4 Mags in after?

 

11338.jpg

 

The Spec of the Elite 4 version say it has these style pouches - Will those fit a G36 Mag?

 

The Warrior Elite Ops 901 Elite 4, comes with the following as standard; 4 x Warriors 5.56mm Open Mag Pouches ( Each Pouch holds 1 x PMag 5.56mm Mags )

 

***editV2***

 

Just read that the newer JG G608 have a different set up and the conversion kits don't work unless you modify them:

 

i'm pretty sure almost all of them are actually from the same factory so the brand shouldn't really matter. If you have a one-piece G36 hop unit (no extended feed tube on the magwell), you'll have to cut the tube off the magwell conversion.

SOOOO MUCH TO CONSIDER!!!!!! *Brain turns to mush*
