Basic Intro Gear ?

[Doombringer]

Hi,

What would be the gear that everyone would consider basic that a noob should buy?

- Safety googles (of course)
- Holster for secondary weapon
- Pouches for ammo ?

What else should I look into getting ? And if you have some recommended retailers, it would be appreciated.

Well to start things off, a Holster and sidearm are not a huge priority. Depending on what you have for a weapon best thing to do is get a simple Molle platform or chest rig and then stock up on some mags. Also make sure you have a good battery and charger because there is nothing worse than leaving a game because of a dead battery.

Goggles are extremelly important, dont cheap out!

A basic kit generally consists of:
The rifle (of course).
Good eye protection.
Camo clothing.
Good boots.
A vest or chest rig to carry mags.
Something to carry water in (a camelbak or belt canteen).
Mags.
A good battery charger.
Good ammo (bb bastard).

Additional kit that many find useful:
Speedloader.
Sling.
Gloves.
Knee pads.
Drop pouch.
A sidearm (pistol).
A holster for your sidearm.
Spare battery.
AI propane adapter.
Backup rifle.
Small first aid kit.

Thanks alot for your replies !

Do everyone here have a preferred retailer ? There are just so much of them for clothing.

I am the prefered retailer.
I have all the stuff you need to start and more. I'm just one province to the Left.
Would you like a quote for all that gear or start slower?
Cheers

Generally I buy from the classifieds. You can get some great deals there. If you're eighteen years of age or older I would highly recommend getting age verified and checking out the classifieds, you'll save alot of money over buying new. Even if you're not age verified I believe that the gear and clothing section can still be accessed.

The Gear and Clothing section doesn't require you to be AVed. I bought a bunch of my rigging from there before I got AVed - kinda ended up doing it backwards. Usually people say to get your Rifle first then your gear, I went backwards. O.o

Still need to get me a nice new CIRAS vest of some sort though...

I PM'd bruce to get age eventually or i'll just go to a game and get verified there if it takes too long. I'll definately check the classified. Thanks a lot!
