You've probably seen it, but http://www.ww2airsoft.org.uk/ has some pretty nice kit guides on there.
I've considered starting collecting some WWII gear myself but I imagine it'll take a while for me to get a whole loadout together

[snowserpeant]

yep.im on that forum.posted up an intro yesterday but no replies as yet.indeed there are some great guides over there

[snowserpeant]

i reckon it will take me a while to get the gear together too.at the moment i have a reproduction heavy reversable combat jacket,lightweight pull over smock and helmet cover in the german heeres splittermuster 31 pattern and[while not exactly ww2 repro] us style bdu combats in the same german camo pattern and modern swiss combats and shirt / light combat jacket [again not exactly ww2] in a camo pattern that is clearly based on waffen ss leibermuster

Ah no, As a brit i think i should stick to my own side, plus it will be fun to hunt Chris from MIA.

Plus you have to love the ww2 airborne look and the hip shooting sten... (sorry see bridge too far, far, far to many times, connery/hopkins-tastic)

[snowserpeant]

ah i see.why not,afterall the germans tend to out number the allies from what i have seen...great movie too

[Domminn]

Well no reason really, Ive lived in german speaking countries for 12 years now, maybe ill do both loadoutsas i do love the airsoft mauser 98k rifle... might be fun to do a "Fallschirmjäger Scharfschützen"

[snowserpeant]

yep,i love that weapon too
