If you are kitting just for kit & to play look good. Every little comment writen up so far seems cool to me.

One thing if your are going to a more sim look... Change your goggles for a real pair of goggles an operator would use... ESS , bollé , etc

Overall looking good.

Get a minimum of 5 lowcaps, ideally close to 10. Hicaps are stupid.

Having a backpack would be a nice loadout addition and be practical.
I did not notice if you have a working radio and headset, if not, get a GMRS compatible radio and a good headset.
Working on the radio, Got to get my dad to buy me that lol
And im also working on getting a secondary, i dont know which kind yet. Suggestions?

How are Flakjaks? I heard that regardless of there anti-fog tech the still do. Also, ESS are probably what im going to get, or maybe just shooting glasses.

Why would you tuck in your combat shirt? It's not meant to be tucked in, last I checked... =P

I don't mind the FlakJak goggles, but they're a bit weird to wear with the CF Issue helm. Haven't gotten to try them with any other type of helmet, real or repro.

Ah, yes CF is for the Canadian Forces. Actually to think of it, comparing the goggles with a real Kevlar helm is kind of dumb, since I wouldn't play with the real thing anyways - who want's that weight on their head when you could use a replica one.

Just tried it out a couple minutes ago anyways though - it's a decent fit all around with the helm, feels a bit odd around the bridge of my nose though but then, it could just be my face. =P

Wait, your dad? How old are you? You look pretty young in your picture. I know in the US they let kids play. But I'm still curious.

Do you think the goggles would be comfortable with a MICH 2000, such as mine? I want to just wear shooting glasses and a balaclava, but I cant seem to get my hands on a tan/coyote brown one

Honestly I've never worn any helm besides the issued one I have - can't imagine it would be too different but it would be better if someone with actual experience using one could comment.

Personally I don't see myself wearing a helmet while playing, I stick to wearing a bush hat with either ballistic glasses or goggles. For now I've managed to avoid getting shot in the face (well, minus once) but I'm going to look into getting myself either a half face mask or a shemagh.

Depending on where you play, I'd think a balaclava would be too hot unless it's a cool day outside. If you want one, just look up sites online that sell tactical gear - since you're in the States maybe check out Opsgear? Not sure of any other ones really since I look for everything in Canada. Would think that most Army Surplus stores would carry it too.

Edit: Oh, and what the heck is on you're right leg? Looks like a holster to me I think?

Contrary to what you Canadians think (lol), Its not that easy (in Maryland atleast) to find surplus stores. All the Sunny Surplus's closed up and now I
have to order everything from websites! And a thin Balaclava would be to hot?


And yeah....the monstrosity on my leg is a WW2 pouch, a psp pouch, some nylon strips, a buckle from a backback, and a shit ton of gaffing tape.
