I'm still unsure about the KAC that I was looking at. Any other KAC PDWs that aren't sold out and that are above 200?
[QUOTE=Mooee;20771357]I live up North East (USA), so we've been getting sparatic weather lately, it [I]just[/I] stopped snowing here like last week which is why I'm so worried about the patteren I go with. Black is pretty much good for everything except snow and same for ACU (its not good at night). Usually when it's snowing here it's a bit gloomy/grey looking, the snow itself is either really nice or complete crap (icy/slushy). I honestly hate traditional camo, it comes off as really gaudy and 'fake' to me. Tan or (plain) OD isn't too bad at all though. @Kawaii: Yea, which is why I'm asking, lol.[/QUOTE] So wait... what camo?
[QUOTE=Mooee;20770114]Think I'll be going with this vest: [URL]http://www.airsoftgi.com/product_info.php?cPath=28_96&products_id=2767[/URL] Can't decide between ACU or Black though.[/QUOTE] Go with Black or OD if you're playing in the snow. I used to own one of those, worked great for a light loadout for shorter games. The main advantage it has is how lightweight it is. All I had on mine was 2 double AK mag pouches, and a utility pouch on the front and a hydration carrier on the back. For games where I needed a sidearm or a little extra gear, I'd wear one of those Condor Battle belts along with the Compact Plate Carrier. It also served to hold pistol mag pouches and a tool kit.
I need a good Canadian airsoft site if anyone could help.

Huh, I never knew that was you. [editline]12:12AM[/editline] Also, you missed one [url]http://www.007airsoft.com/main2.htm[/url]

I found a $2 Auto Ordnance 1911 WGSA "Deluxe" Blowback pistol, should I get it as a sidearm? [editline]09:20PM[/editline] It's up on an auction.
Alright. Will do. I've only dealt with 007 though unfortunately.

It's prob broken. Dumbass.

He shouldnt even buy it because he is retarded enough to ask if he should get it.
[QUOTE=Marine1st;20772073]So wait... what camo?[/QUOTE] For what, ACU? It's digital camo. [QUOTE=xXEnder007Xx;20772240]Go with Black or OD if you're playing in the snow.

[QUOTE=Kawaii;20784171]Your kidding right? Your gonna have to spend a lot more than $2 for airsoft.[/QUOTE] Well it is an auction item, so maybe the seller is hoping for an increase in price? (like on eBay when people start items off for $.99)
Ebay is retarded.

[QUOTE=Mooee;20785713]For what, ACU? It's digital camo.[/QUOTE] I meant what camo do you use? I'm getting mixed up with flekctarn and ACU [editline]12:28AM[/editline] I use ebay a lot, its legit if you know what you're doing. Like I have gotten $200 marked off of real deal gear (Eagle CIRAS) just because the seller didn't know what they were selling and it wasn't a high profile item at the time. I've also gotten brand new oakleys for 50% of the retail
I have bought some gun parts from E-bay but they were from a family member who's gun broke and was selling parts.

well obviously, i could tell by the picture its a piece of shit

If you were to get acu camo then I'd suggest ranger green gear to get this look: [IMG]http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b351/Marine1st/070807-A-2599B-017.jpg[/IMG]
If the guy has $2 dollars to spare, go ahead make a bid but if someone outbids you, let him have it.
I want to paint my gun's sights with glow in the dark paint for a night game, is this a bad idea?
[QUOTE=PhoenixRSA;20797623]I want to paint my gun's sights with glow in the dark paint for a night game, is this a bad idea?[/QUOTE] Just remember everyone else can see it too.
Trust me, that glow in the dark paint stuff won't work for shit. You have to have a lot of it on your sight and it needs to take in a lot of light before it will dimly glow in the dark for just a few minutes. Take it from someone who was stupid enough to try this.
Damn, I guess I'll stick with torch down the sights, haha.
Or just get a red dot sight.
Or a laser. Just be sure you got a pressure pad for it, don't want to keep it on all the time. Plus it's great at intimidating newer players.
Yeah lasers scare the shit out of newbies, same with flashlights. I use mine on my Glock in our very dark CQB arena and they go running when they see it :v:
