It's dated in the 1990s.

I never knew that three inches was the minimum length for a handgun barrel. I guess all of the anti-gun politicians wont be able to register their penises.

"Soldier" does NOT mean "paratrooper," Michael.

A paratrooper IS a soldier. The thing is I just don't like the way the helmet looks. I was hoping for something similar to the $250 sphera helmet... except I was going for like 50-60.

Well, my main point is: kevlar helm costs 40, paratrooper helm costs 25.
It's your choice, man, but I go by what I said.

You chose to go with a paratrooper setup, and I think you ought to finish it.

I'm liking this forum already...

(ignore the wrong magazine, and the fact that airborne dont wear berezka!)



and for rebel looks...



cant beat some blue-jeans for authenticity!

ps: as for equipment...for me it totally depends on the game - I prefer a realistic loadout, but if we're doing a big area, long game, I'll use my vastly versatile mod-vest and carry

camelbak, flashlight, two or three pistol mag loaders, spare battery, multi-tool, 8-10 magazines, small camo net, radio with headset, small first aid pouch, maps, grease pencil if i need it, etc....

I just end up using a lot of that stuff. However, this is not required...you'll find most people who spend a ton on airsoft are buying lots of gear for different impressions etc...I have spent 5x the money on gear  etc. than I have on actual guns/bb's/batteries... :cry:

That's not that $20 chest rig is it??

I was looking into it and it.
It was the only "affordable" rig I could find that would hold AK mags.

Nope, real Russian (commercially produced) M23 pioneer in drab - about $68 or so --- I am sure there are copies.

This one is a tough bit of kit - but beware the shoulder straps, they are reinforced fabric which is damn sharp if you dont watch yourself when you're taking it off - I've cut my ear before! :shock:

ps: it holds a bunch of junk too.

pss: will hold 8 AK magazines - no problem, but it is not for silent-open...unless you tuck the flap in or something, it has long bits of velcro - so its not quiet if you have to change a magazine  ;)
