I agree on the M203 and the acog, they're not on my list for the forseeable future
In regards to gear, I already have a nice pair of rugged boots.
I was planning on playing with jeans and a hoodie for the first couple of weeks, cramming mags in my pockets (not that I have many anyways)
I could probably get a nice vest and pouches for christmas.
However, scouring through amazon, ebay and toronto airsoft, I came up with this:
1-CM18 MOD1 DST (245$)
1-Elite Force 0.28g Bio-bb's 2700ct (25$)
1-Valken Annex MI7 Thermal (40$)
3-DYTAC Invader midcap Mag (36$)
1-SRC M4 Magazine Style Speed Loader, 400-Round (14$)
1-Venom 30C 2S 1200mah 7.4 LiPO (17$)
1-Atomik RC Venom Group Atomik 2-3 Cell AC/DC LiPO Balance Charger (25$)
Which totals 425$ with tax and shipping included. I wanted to know what you guys think on this "shopping list"? lol. The only reason I'm not going with the King Arms M4 is that I don't like the general old-style M4 look. I like a more M416-ish kind of look.
