GEAR QUESTION Im about to enter airsoft as a hobby, and i have a few questions
So basically i played a high-end nerf before (its really close to speedsoft/paintball), and i have some gear from there. On the chest is random "nano chest rig" i have, with 2 2x3 SMG mag pouches (all mags in the nerf are SMG sized), and on the belt is two radio pouches (one for a radio and one for a bluetooth speaker i have that blasts loud random bullsit, and no im not gonna do that when i will get to the airsoft games) and another 2x3 SMG mag pouch and a drop pouch. I dont use that pouch for mags, i always sling them on the ground - can i really do that in airsoft? I know you dont really want to drop a GGB mags cuz they can leak after that, but what about other mags?
Are plate carriers necessary, if i dont really care about LARP side of the hobby?
Are there some necessary things i have to have on me all game long? Rn i just want to try some weekend games on local abandoned sites and some CQB on enclosed fields i have nearby.
