I'd second paintball masks for the kids because they're easier and potentially cheaper than comparable two-piece solutions.

I just started in December, here's my list of items I have acquired (has overlaps with ThunderCactus's):
  • Rifle
  • Charger (Bought a Turnigy Accucel 6)
  • Batteries (I got 7.2v Turnigy lipos)
  • Goggles (purchased mil-spec Revisions)
  • Mesh Lower Mask
  • Gloves
  • Rifle Sling
  • Speed Loader
  • Extra Mid-Cap Mags
  • Boots
  • Barrel Sleeve (depends on where you're playing)
  • Ammo (0.25 was recommended to me)
  • 1982 Canadian army surplus gear (C7 pouches + belt), holds my m4 mags

Nice to have but still working on:
  • Plate Carrier
  • Knee Pad (you can get away with one)
  • Radio (Looking at Baofeng UV-5R and UV8-82)
  • PTT (Kenwood Style adapter)
  • Radio Headset
  • Gun Bag/Case (Was recommended to check Canadian Tire for Hard Cases)
  • Red Dot Sight (can be hard to get down on your iron sights with a mask on)
