[QUOTE=MedicmanV500;29309652]I have $200. Should I spend it on gear or my rifle? I have quite a lot of gear but my rifle is looking pretty bare. I was gonna get an M203, shell for it, and a PEQ box. That would be my whole $200 right there.[/QUOTE] dont 203 unless u got multiple shells

[QUOTE=Kill001;29309154]Get the norotos if you're going to continue making a ~tf141~ loadout and looking at the position of the holes, it looks like it should fit Norotos looks cooler imo [editline]19th April 2011[/editline] [img_thumb]http://img509.imageshack.us/img509/5650/insalmaden0005.jpg[/img_thumb][/QUOTE] Thanks. The NOROTOS mount looks like it would completely cover the current one...how do they bolt on, though, and where would I find a good one for a decent price? I agree they do look better. The TF141 kit is more for troll factor than serious ~harcore milsim~ play, though I'm considering working on a sort of Ranger-ish impression that would look a bit like the guy on the right in the picture.

Redwolf has a dummy norotos afaik

[QUOTE=W0w00t;29309737]dont 203 unless u got multiple shells[/QUOTE] I'm gonna start off with one (they are expensive) and I may purchase more later. I just like the look of an M203, it's badass. And it could be useful if I have to clear a room or something, even with a single shell. Or as a final resort kinda thing. [editline]20th April 2011[/editline] Also does anyone know where I can buy a replica MICH 2000 that will fit my large head? I have a Condor one but the pads are too thick so it sits really high on my head and it looks retarded as fuck. Also the chinstrap on it looks gay. Where can I get thinner pads+new chinstrap for cheap that will fit on it? Or just a place where I can get a different replica MICH that will fit and has a better strap?

[QUOTE=Kill001;29319952]Redwolf has a dummy norotos afaik[/QUOTE] Link? If it's the same one as Ebairsoft stocks, baaaad mojo. Also, Hong Kong - not going to happen.

This one has some extra goodies, but is basically twice as expensive as the Condor ones. It's actually supposed to sit up on your head like that, I think. Mine does and my head isn't even that big...looks exactly the same way on most people. Like Kill said, it's pretty much useful for when you're prone so you don't end up being blinded. [QUOTE=Timebomb575;29321572]pls no Unless you plan to use nerfs[/QUOTE] Depending on where you play, it can be legitimate. I seem to recall Ender mentioning that firing a shell at the floor of any room, even with a BB shower, counted as "clearing" it and effectively killed everyone inside regardless of cover. If his field(s) use this rule, I don't see why not. At least he's got a cool looking uber shotgun.

The nvg mount on the aex ones has condor logos lulz, p sure the ones at aex are condor [editline]20th April 2011[/editline] Wait wait I take that back but the chinstraps on those michs are a pain in the ass [editline]20th April 2011[/editline] I swear they have to be worn with headephones or else you just tighten the straps to the point they cover your ears

[QUOTE=Jenkem;29308477]How about you three stop spamming and be useful?[/QUOTE] no

[QUOTE=Kill001;29322380]I swear they have to be worn with headephones or else you just tighten the straps to the point they cover your ears[/QUOTE] Strange. I can't seem to wear my own electronic earmuffs with them and still have it tight enough to not fall right off my head (the straps around my ears have trouble with fitting over the muffs), but it's fine if I tighten it without them. It's sad because a pair of those would make so much sense and would save my ears if someone tried to shove a Thunder B down my throat.

I have $300. What should I get? Gear or guns?

Depends on what you need. If you have gear for mags and stuff and a functioning gun then I'd say go for a gun since guns are cooler then gear (incoming disagrees from geardos).

Be different and start an impression, like I am. If you've got a decent gun, enough mags ect., you probably don't need another as long as it does what you want it to.

Well I only need to replace the spacer on the hop up so I guess gear? I already have a woodland BDU and black vest with a mag pouch and I have a drop leg holster. So what should I get? I was thinking some boots, knee/elbow pads, a boonie/helmet, gloves, belt, more mag pouches, perhaps a utility pouch and/or an admin pouch, and hydration pack. That's all I can think of really unless anyone has anything else. Best place to get all of this? I don't like buying from two different websites but if I have to then thats fine.

I can't really be bothered to come up with a "where to look" list right now, but ditch the black vest. It will suck badly in summer. Where do you live? Cosmetically I'd suggest you get a helmet, not a hat, if you want to look professional. They cost way too much but make you look awesome and get in the way when you actually try to play.

North Carolina. I was thinking doing an ACU loadout or something but Evike/ASGI like to overprice everything ACU.

You do not want ACU. It doesn't match most environments and will make you stick out nearly everywhere (EXCEPT dead foliage and certain rocks). Get some MultiCam if you want up-to-date, expensive, more generally useful, elitist wear. Otherwise get some MARPAT in woodland or desert, or just plain colors.

[QUOTE=MedicmanV500;29325442]It looks cool though :saddowns:[/QUOTE] Then get it? I have ACU and I like to wear it every now and then.

[QUOTE=xxncxx;29324654]Where might I get MARPAT in desert online? I'm not sure if the one and only surplus store near here sells MARPAT.[/QUOTE] ebay for cheap or fullmetaljacket.com

Buy arid CADPAT. or the arid flecktarn to be even more awesome. :v:

[QUOTE=Identity;29325468]Then get it? I have ACU and I like to wear it every now and then.[/QUOTE] I already have it, I'm in U.S. Army JROTC on the Raider team so it was issued to me. I was just saying.

[QUOTE=milkandcooki;29326104]It's the opposite of the M4 in css.
