Airsoft Beginner Tips: Loadout: First Equipment

[SmallGameHunter11]

is the AK47 tactical metal AEG airsoft rifle from dicks a good gun please respond

[livelifefunful]

yo guys i am starting to to get into air soft and have most equipment i need. but can some of you watch my load out vid and tell me what i am missing??

[TheOnlyAirsoftKid]

Is the SRC GE0504 a good gun?

[100BMXfreak]

military dosent use bdu they use acu style uniforms

[3DSDude1]

dude i have emergency...im having a war on sunday and i have no camo and its hard to wear googles and masks cuzof my glasses!! any suggustions

[TheJSVids]

@3DSDude1 Go to your local sporting goods store (Dick's, Big 5, Sports Authority) and get a paintball mask or an airsoft mask that will fit over your glasses.

[3DSDude1]

@TheJSVids whick kind cuz back in october i got a jt one and it wouldnt fit over my glasses

[TheJSVids]

@3DSDude1 Look at them and judge to see how well they'd fit. A sales rep might open it up so you can check.

[3DSDude1]

@TheJSVids k thanks and what do u think of the hk g36c no compromise

[RisingPowerAirsoft]

@3DSDude1 I dont know if you have already found the proper goggles/helmet but it depends on your glasses size, mine are small about 1in wide/tall and standard size across. Now it also depends on what your field allows, for instance if they allow mesh I would suggest those if you are in a hotter area. I use a dye paintball mask and can easily fir my glasses underneath...also check out the mesh goggles on out channel...those also can fit glasses underneath. Please check out our channel and sub!

[How2DoPrograming]

Im 12, and i know i can go to play airsoft at a very near place. Only problem is, because i need to be over 18 to buy a Rif(Realistic Imitation Firearm) so, do i keep having to rent them? If so, should i buy a to tone gun to train with and play my own games in the forests?

[TheJSVids]

@How2DoPrograming Depends on your local laws. I'd consult a Law Enforcement Officer

[WhizzDG]

@How2DoPrograming if you play 3 or more games at 1 site within 2 months you are liable for membership and when you have payed the membership fee you can buy a non two tone gun from the owner of the site or one of the staff that work there that have a ukara licence.

THIS IS ONLY IF YOUR IN UK

[killmanjry55b]

hay guys if u ever question getting an lbv (the vest he has on) get it. i am a vary experienced player and i have used one as my main vest for years they work great and they are like 20 bucks. hope to see you guys on the filed PREACHER P.A.C AIR SOFT

[TheYoungKidC]

would a fishermans vest be a good alternative for a airsoft vest? and will a powder blue beanie work to cover my head?

[Mjarf88]

@TheYoungKidC Use whatever has the storage capacity for the equipment you want to bring with you on the field. I would recommend wearing neutral colors, like black,dark grey brown or beige, if you don't have camo.

Your outfit should contain whatever you need on the field, and not any mroe than that, keep it lightweight and flexible.

[killmanjry55b]

@ PREACHER P.A.C

HAY THIS GUY IS COMPLETELY RIGHT USE WHAT EVER YOU CAN TO CARY BB'S EVEN IF ITS A BAG IN YOUR B.D.U POCKET.

[killmanjry55b]

@PREACHER P.A.C YES AND NO BECAUSE. 1 it will give you some storage but if you have 8 or mags get an lbv but you need a spot for mags hope this helps. any thing else drop me a message

[airsoftguy3191]

im on a 250$ buget would that cover all of the stuff you got

[SUPPASK8A]

i have the same shoes

[olneysk8er]

i was wondering if you could tell me if the M4 carbine by matrix is a good gun....

[TheJSVids]

@olneysk8er I'd safely say no, it's just a chinese rebranded gun. If you took apart the gearbox you'd find it to be of a brand such as JG or even worse. I'd go with a Combat Machine or Classic Army Sportsline.

[JacobSly1]

Where I live I can just go to Keefers Army Navy store and buy the Camo there.. FOR CHEAP!

[TheAlltimeairsoft]

Thumbs up for paintball! :) jus kiddin paintball sucks.

[EpiCAirSoftR91]

i used ur advise in combat and it works great i. i stayed up till 2 in the morning triying to find somthing like this THANKS

[3DSDude1]

hey dude im thinking bout geting a m4-1911 ops kit what do u think? i wanna get a semi or fully auto for under 50 dollars thts good.any ideas?

[TheJSVids]

@3DSDude1 Save your money, a decent Automatic Electric Gun will cost $150+

[3DSDude1]

@TheJSVids OH well i got the m4 duty kit and i really like it it was the same as the m4-1911 ops kit but for 10 more dollars its fs is higher by 12 and its range by .3 and it electric :) and hopefully for christmas ill get a pulse 276 have u herd of thaat?

[412chicago]

i have all of that gear but i use a swat vest more than the pack vest.

[BTKAirsoftTeam]

thanks! this is really helpful! im 13 and i started playing airsoft 2 years ago and i played in shorts and a tee lol, but now im experienced and play in many tournaments, and once again greAT review!

[winner2151]

im new to airsoft i just got an ak47 off amazon and ive been hearing about all the batterys ao with is best

[TheJSVids]

@winner2151 Tenergy and Intellect are the most common.

[winner2151]

@TheJSVids thanks

[NewDivineWind]

@winner2151 Or Elite

[Rennthar]

@winner2151 just make sure not to get a lipo or a lifepo.... sweet lord u will burn up your motor or jam your gun from the godly rate of fire make sure ur guns lipo ready!!

[Slayer46278]

du getting a bb to the neck is not fun. it hurts like crap. screw m-16 and stuff get a dang rpg-7 or something

[smeagle9999]

I would suggest getting boots that go up the leg further if your in wooded areas

[BEATLES9251]

hey i dont mean to ruin the older pepoles fun but im 10 and i want to start airsoft. dont worry im not gonna fukin screem "im not hit, im not" when i am i just want to play it. i hope none of you mind i think its a fun mature game.

[TheJSVids]

@BEATLES9251 There's a reason why we encourage kids to play, because you are the future of the sport. No one expects you to be perfect when you start, we just want you to learn.

[BEATLES9251]

@TheJSVids thanks, your not a kid hater

[BEATLES9251]

@TheJSVids hey i just made a youtube account what do i do i dont have a camera

[legoww2infantry]

@BEATLES9251 its great that you want to start! because like TheJSVids said you guys are the future of the sport. and dont worry if any older kid starts pickking on you just kick his/her butt in a game

[SN1PERGODZ]

Thanks

[AirsoftM1911]

do good quality masks fog up

[TheJSVids]

@AirsoftM1911 No sir, they are good until you're breathing directly on 'em.

[AirsoftM1911]

@TheJSVids good

[BestOFtheBestAirsoft]

Hey I'm just starting out and getting my Ak47 AEG should i use .20 bbs?

[AirsoftM1911]

@BestOFtheBestAirsoft maybe i depends on your FPS i have a ak47 and i use .23g goldenball bb from Airsoftmegastore my fps is about 410

[justlaxdodd]

@TheJSVids thx



[zachery485]

im new too n im 16 so anything can make me happy but iv seen alot of videos of airsoft sniper's n stuff if u could u think u can give me an idea of a basic sniper loadout? thx

[chickengear]

im thinking about starting airsoft, but can someone plz explain me how safe or dangerous it is???I know it hurts but ive gotten shot by a small one in my shirt and it stung but no mark. yet my friend plays airsoft and has marks all over.

[TheJSVids]

@chickengear If you cover up properly, but wearing a shirt and pants, you shouldn't have to worry too much about marks unless you get shot at point blank which shouldn't happen.

[Roygomez11]

@chickengear well it depends say you play on a small feild, it will hurt and sting when you get hit. if you play on a large field you arent really gonna fell the bbs hit you. also always wear goggles.

[TheAirsofterPro]

@chickengear Depends on FPS, goes like this:

1 - 200 FPS - Little to no string

201 - 300 FPS - Stings like a rubber band snap

301 - 400 FPS - Stings like a bee sting

401 - 550 FPS - Stings like hell!!

[CrazyDemonGaming]

@chickengear Eyeglasses,jeans,and a log sleave shirt thats all you need

[TheSafetyTurtle]

@iAirsoft78 And less chance of a BB hitting it and breaking it...been there, done that ^^

[justlaxdodd]

I'm 12 nd I wanna start airsofting. Where do they have gear in a size for my age?

[TheJSVids]

@justlaxdodd You'll find gear your size anywhere, you just have to select your size according to the options. Your best bet is going to your local Military Surplus store.

[airsoftsocalmodern]

that was an awkward ending X)

[SlobbishJosh]

thanks the last time i when to a air soft war i was at a indore park i bought this 300 $ ak47 but when i got pb with a gas shot i could not feel my finger nails for the hole time i was there so get gloves poeple!

[pepekiller10898]

Thumbs up for airsoft! (:

[xUSMCx4xLIFEx]

@pepekiller10898

kicks the shit outta that nerf shit

[iiDarkoii]

@MegaAirsoft97 Dude I laughed so hard when I read that. xD

[bassplaya360]

also wear a cup



[perseusbeatkraken]

@Axbproductions123 thank kind sir :) see people I'm not crazy

[perseusbeatkraken]

Yeah whatever if BDUs are cheaper whatever but if you the good stuff get a pair of ACUs

[perseusbeatkraken]

You kids with your BDUs I'll stick to my ACUs

[TheJSVids]

@perseusbeatkraken BDU's are far more cost effective than buying a set of ACU's. I'd recommend for people watching this video to get a Combat Shirt and BDU Pants over a set of ACU cut cammies if they have the money.

[AxBPRODUCTIONS123]

@perseusbeatkraken i have to agree with you ACUs are a lot better

[Roguesoldier678]

@perseusbeatkraken ACU's suck. ACU dose not blend in with anything at ALL. Where as with BDU's you have a much larger selection with the type of camoflage you want. And BDU is a helluva lot more comfortable.

[MrDann011]

WHAT A SEXY MAN!

[ozzylover1234]

@TheJSVids Really!!!! im in CAP too!!!!!!!! I can tell by the way you say things what rank are you

[TheJSVids]

@ozzylover1234 Good to hear, and I moved around alot so I never got a chance to rank up. I was an E-3 in NJROTC

[kingme818]

@TheJSVids im with you guys..im an E-4 seamen apprentice

[TheJSVids]

@kingme818 I assume you're a NS2. Good job mate.

[nukeboy14]

I clicked on this video just because of how badass you look with all that gear on

[ozzylover1234]

@TheJSVids are you in any cadet programs

[TheJSVids]

@ozzylover1234 NJROTC and CAP

[thetexascowboys6]

everyone knows what a bdu is jackass

[taiko729]

I would go for the NC Star MOLLE vest. Runs for $30.00 on Airsoft GI. Great deal.

[jameshone1000]

i shot my self in the leg and it hert

[pekkapukkaable]

i am going to my first game at friday i have an ak47, bullets, mag and a mask but i only have a woodland camo jacket and pants so how i would look like a soldier or terrorist at field?

[TheJSVids]

@pekkapukkaable You would most likely look like guerrilla forces. You can google them. They aren't terrorist or formal soldiers.

[Roguesoldier678]

@TheJSVids For airsoft gear shop at evike. They're the best airsoft retailer in the world. Everything you have you can get at evike.

[halohomasi123]

Any ideas on a good assault rifle

[TehUltimateSnake]

"With knee pads, you don't have to worry about ripping your jeans while sucking someone's D***"

[3DSDude1]

thanks, i have my first war on the first and all i have is a pistol :( what should i get with out spending to much money? plz give me sum tips too plz thaks

[TheJSVids]

@3DSDude1 Well if you are starting with a pistol, you want to make sure you have mags for it, so what I'd recommend is getting some extra mags and pistol mag pouches. Go ahead and run the mag pouches on your belt and you're now set.

[3DSDude1]

@TheJSVids thanks man, and if i were to get like a afordable good working assalt rfle or atimatic n what would i get, im tlking about the ones that ave the long cylinder tip

[TheJSVids]

@3DSDude1 Generally, the affordable Airsoft "AEG"s will be $100-$200, so I'd save my money until I could afford either a Classic Army Sportline M15A4 or a Combat Machine M4

[RAWRImmGunnaEatYou]

@TheJSVids just to add to the 3DSDude chat, the combat machine will last a lifetime if you take care of them, and with classic army its either a hit or a miss, seen emm brake within 2 hicaps, deffinatly, in my opinion, go for the combat machine

[3DSDude1]

@TheJSVids thanks man, and if i were to get like a afordable good working assalt rfle or atimatic n what would i get, im tlking about the ones that ave the long cylinder tip. and were can i get extra mags

[magstrike105]

@3DSDude1 get the combat machine M4 from EVIKE. They have special models no other company has and their a bit cheaper.

[gamerdudes315]

ty this was really helpful i dont have the gear of a expert but i love airsoft as much as any professional :)

[ablahblah54]

Meh, IMHO, I'd just recommend some decent, ANSI Z87.1 rated cheap goggles, and a crossdraw vest or some sort of all-in-one vest package to hold mags and other various gear. That itself is all you really need to get started, goggles and gear harnesses.

[astrozombeez]

throwing it out there, but im pretty sure a beginner isn;t gonna buy all that camo. it's a great video, don't get me wrong, but i think that maybe this is more for people who want to get alot more into the game.

[OMGitsTheBobChannel]

my first loadout (and still kida is) = some jeans or pants, running shoes, a tee, and a facemask with a sprinnger on the side of my aeg or my spring blot action rifle :D

[qwertyPROairsoft]

And don't say 'but ACU is a camo pattern' yes also it is a clothing format

[Kirbisi]

@qwertyPROairsoft yes i agree he has to say acu digital camo if he wants to talk about a camo pattern

[TheJSVids]

@qwertyPROairsoft No, the camo is UCP (Universal Camouflage Pattern) ACU is the Uniform *Cut*. BDU is a Uniform Cut as well, but I'm saying the military in general just uses BDU. Stop being a smart ass, this is a video for beginners, you're not helping anyone, just confusing them.

[qwertyPROairsoft]

The US army don't use BDU's, they use ACU's (army combat uniform)

[1sgtforbes]

i agree u should wear gloves i got shot in the hand and it made my hand bleed alot!!!

[AEGCombat2012]

the one person who dislikes this plays paintball

[MrCoolGuy2303]

Once a BB hit me in the neck, bounced up behind my mask and hit me in the lip.

[TheJSVids]

@iAirsoft78 That is correct. Thank you, I hope all beginners note this.

[vaultboyhunter2077]

i wear my real army issue gas mask it works great just took some time getting used to having to aim the gun sideway sorta :)

[TheSk8dudes]

thx

[footballss70]

Alright lets have fun and play airsoft! O shoot if forgot to buy my f ing gun!!!!!

[ViaLaBam25]

im not a beginner im on a budget :D guess this is for me

[DoctorMaligno117]

this is pretty good stuff i like it 8)

[xalax001]

ah yes, getting shot in the knuckle was the first time i got hit

by a bb, then in the funny bone which hurts ALOT

[sfried141]

dude, this video is awsome! im just getting into airsoft and this really helped me out. thanks man.

[AsaltyPeanut24]

i got my bdu's at salvation army and goodwill....try it

[Sman199876]

I got shot in the nuckle it fricken hurt I almost stopes my gun and I have that mask and it fogs like a bitch

[stockmanbryce1]

Where do u get the shamog

[TheJSVids]

@stockmanbryce1 Links in the description

[Dragonseeker151]

@TheJSVids where did you get you`re knee pads?

[TheJSVids]

@Dragonseeker151 You can get knee pads from any military surplus and airsoft shop. Mine are from Condor/OETech.

[jacker372]

@stockmanbryce1 they sell it at evike.com lol

[archiaskcommando]

@stockmanbryce1 It's called a Shemagh. -_-

[sajos32l]

great vid thanks

[sxdewcleveland]

jämtgott

[noelforlife1]

you call this Beginner your fucking mask is 75.00 dollars this is bull shit

[TheJSVids]

@noelforlife1 Uh, actually it's a JT Delta Airsoft Mask...$20. You can get it in a sporting goods store.

[noelforlife1]

@TheJSVids the link in the description say's its $75.00 so you should check that and giving false info

[noelforlife1]

@TheJSVids the link in the description say's it $75.00 so you should check that and fix it and fix the false info your giving

[TheJSVids]

@noelforlife1 that is a completely different mask in the description. I chose that mask in the description because it's the most reliable and trustworthy, the mask I have is affordable and does the job. You don't HAVE to pick the gear I put in the description.

[quiznose224]

@noelforlife1 just cause its pricy doesnt mean its not beginner type....

[ShwackerSwag]

no matter how hard you go down on your knees, it FEELS AMAZING!

[stlazareairsoft]

do u know any good canadian site ? to buy stuff like gear ?

[TheJSVids]

@stlazareairsoft I just googled it and one of the results was BuyAirsoft Canada

[sammaxwell12]

@stlazareairsoft ebay thats what i use and i have a full cadpat loadout + ASGI!

[iUSAirsoft]

Good vid man,Very informative. Mind if I build on what you said? First for very advanced safety tips on what type of goggles to get than watch some Dr. Airsoft videos. Second BDUs are the main camo of some of our military but not all. Army=BDUs and ACU Airforce now uses ABUs Marines use variants of MARPAT Navy normally wears BDU or Desert MARPAT. Also I would recommend saving up for a MOLLE vest because they are fantastic. But still great vid and now I'm clicking on the subscribe button.

[Backhando4]

Hey Wolf I just started playing Airsoft and my buddies think it's p**** to wear all that gear. Saftey before opinion? Or since our strongest gun is like a 350 FPS do I really need all that?

[TheJSVids]

@Backhando4 Honestly, this is a near minimal level of gear. 350FPS is a great velocity, but it can still chip a tooth if within the maybe 50 feet. If you cut back on gear, you are ultimately sacrificing something. If you lave a part of your body uncovered, crawling around, insects, and thorny bushes will really start becoming a pain. If you are playing indoor CQB, you will get pelted all over multiple times. More coverage means less pain all over.

[southfloridaairsoft]

Nice vid and i also subscribed.

[verylonelyvirgin]

when buying airsoft gear, dont just buy gear too look cool, buy what works, buy what you need. Often, the more expensive mil-spec gear is more expensive, but in the long run, it will hold up better and wont have to be replaced. Buy MOLLE compatible products to setup your loadout in a way that is conveniant for you. For example, I am left handed and I put all my fastmag carriers on my right side along with my dump pouch to accomodate me.

[Zawfee]

I would consider this as a list of purchases:

1) Your Rifle

2) Eye Protection (full face)

3) Vest (preferably molle)

4) Gloves

5) Hydration carrier

6) Alta superflex kneepads

7) Shemahgs (great neck protection)

8) Extra mags and pouches and then go from there. Great vid though

[Sporora]

@Zawfee um, over a vest, some sort of chest-rig is usually a better option over a vest, also with the right non-modular chest rig, such as an old Chinese surplus type 56 chicom 3 ak-cell rig, it will last you longer, for a fraction of the price of airsoft specific stuff... Also eye protection comes before your or gun... you can be a meat shield over having a gun and not being able to play....

[LaotianSniper]

nice vid man! i just made a quick loadout vid too!

[MercsAirsoft]

Solid tips! (Just the tips!) xP

[DesertWolfAirsoft]

wow my name is wolf

[FUZZY8P]

Great vid man i will be subbing!! :D

im trying to get into the sport... i have always loved combat simulations (bb,airsoft,pellet, paint ball....)

its just a bit expensive because i am only 14.....

KEEP UP THE VIDS!!! :-)

[bioskaterboy]

I have that mask. As uncomfortable as buttrape. Highly recommend not buying it

[derekpua]

0:00 TO 0:07

Awkward Stare lol...good vid anyways =)

[AirsoftKiings]

i like the vid man, keep it up

[TheJSVids]

@AirsoftKiings Thanks for the support, it's for people like you we keep making videos!
