Their gear in the movie is pretty darn good, you know good gear is not based on how much it costs and how cool it looks or what gucci name is attached to their gear, many real operators simply use what is available to them and follow a long tradition of modifying their gear as to what works best, some of the best gear are simply stuff that works well for a low cost.

The gear they choose to use in their environment was quite sensible, lightweight, combat effective, and carried enough for what their mission was. A great combination of ALICE with LBV 88s and 3 day packs and some assault vests.

If you look carefully these are damn good setups, they are also modified quite realistically, from the simple arm pockets instead of super velcroed, to the 100 mph tape to tighten loose straps. Most airsoft impressions can learn alot from their setup as opposed to the currently popular method of dumping money into brand name gear to make a impression.
