Matt forgot to mention that you also need a bomb defuse kit, a trained attack dog, an ac130, and finally a mini gun.
floofz
Hmmm sounds right thanks.
floofz a mini gun cost like $2,000. So if your DT then go head.
Timberwolf Gaming I just google searched how much an AC-130 is and it said:
132.4 million dollars.
Don't forget he also needs a grenade belt
The attack dog is a little too far
"...maintain nutrition..."
(eats potato chips)
lmao
asuko2012 "Bring snacks"
How do crisps count as food?Surely there needs to be something in the bag to count as food.
+asuko2012 See, its to replace the sodium that your body "looses" as you run and sweat.
LOL
asuko2012 how dare you call it potato chips. Clearly it's field rasions
Step 1: Don't be poor.
Step 2: ????
Step 3: profit!
Damn.
Lol, I'm so poor but i still play
When you spend so much money on airsofting is just becomes boring.....that's why my friend quit.....but I want to get into it
It's hard when you're '6.7 280lbs
Hard to find anything....I guess I came to ask if a chest rig was any good....
lol I am poor
beginner's ?? really theres enough gear on that table to start a war,
Handi Four Twenty The companies tell you to buy full gear and a load of garbage... get a thick jacket, a budget gun, protection and BBS.
That's the point
Remember, he is a salesman. 😉
Just getting into airsoft, seirously im just buying a couple 100 bio bbs, a gas pistol, and maybe a couple of replacment cartridges if i need them, and a mask. Thats it. I don't think i beginner needs a full on chest rig, like seriously, are you going to buy a chest rig, then i would say over 100 dollars on mags to fill that (from what ive seen, mags are expansive, like for my starting pistol, it was 15$ a mag, which i think is pretty ridiculous). And all i really need is a pistol. I know a good cqb place nearby, and i think im going to have some fun.
Crazy Penguin get a light rig not a plate carrier
Mountain Dew and Doritos will keep you up for quickscoping

@@1969cmp and juuust in case your pc and a safe
@@zebrak7344 I have no idea what you mean.
And your RV
don't forget your house as well
Also taco pouches don't fit Taco Bell tacos. And don't eat Taco Bell before you play airsoft.
Tactical toilet paper attachment, bro. Eat all the Taco Bell you want.
There isn't enough tactical toilet paper that you can use for Taco Bell mud butt lolz
Ate taco bell today. Missed a game.
Good thing. Several trips to the Lou later I'm clean as a whistle inside.
Mr.Nibbles omg i dont know what your taco bell puts in the meat where you're at but after i come home from taco bell i never have to go.....
I get the 3 Doritos tacos and a number 1 burrito to hit the spot but I never go on the the day I eat Taco Bell sometime it's the next day
"beginners guide"- tells you to get like 1000 dollars worth of equipment
This is targeting adults with jobs and $1000? Do you know what airsoft is? I spent $400 for these things. Bruh
Lance Gabriel no
Just because you have a job doesn't mean you can just spend a grand
+pikanoob if you actually listen to the video... most of these items are suggestions, meaning you dont have to buy them. i started airsoft with a $150 gun $70 worth of helmet goggle and lower face a $20 vest and some bb's and i was good to go all around $300.
pikanoob relax it's just 1000 dollars
I think everyone forgets the goal of airsoft. All this gear and sweet guns, that's not the point. It's cool to have those,but the point is to hit the other person with a tiny piece of plastic.
And to have fun
But u still need protection glasses and mask
JayK It'sNotMe milsims are. Most games aren't at this point.
I know! The minimum you need for airsoft is a $30 spring gun, goggles, and BBs.
@@floo1465 well i just like to have reliable, cheap but effective gun so rip 200€
tactical pizza is *very* important.
and always eat it with a full metal spork, none of that ABS plastic junk
You got to be a man and eat that tactical pizza with your tactical fingers
But you gotta make sure it's fps is under 350 for CQB.
ExplosiveAirsoft unless you're a field player
You've inspired me. I bought a tactical titanium spork.
But you need to practice both tactical and speed cutting with your tactical pizzacutter to be prepared to defend your bodyfat.
All you really need for Airsofting is what that guy has on at 1:50.
Yup
Some place unfortunately require face masks
@@hedged-valley1148 not ifbplaying with friends
Ya
Indeed
Actual starter guide:
Goggles
Gun
Bbs
Extra mags
A battery or 2
Probably just wear cargo pants
Good shoes
Maybe a face mask
Maybe? That's a must if you don't want to go to the doctor every few games.
@@itzbeendakavgaming5632 they already listed goggles as the literal first item. It’s lower face they’re talking about.
you forgot to add
have fun
Bouncing bettys?
@@DanielMartinez-xv4rh nah bear traps are much more fun
For a first game... I'd say just a gun, BB's, battery, eye pro and a high cap... THAT'S IT don't bother buying all the gear because you don't know if you'll like it.
No don't by a Springer that'll ruin someone's firstime experience
Also NEVER cheap out on eye protection.
Im not an airsoft player but:
Do they give you dashcams? I see a lotta people using them in vídeos (not only the recording person), like an anti cheater tool to prove they hit someone.
Jovelina Coelho noooooooo, they don’t be handing out expensive cameras like that, you’ve gotta buy your own. At me field (Airsoft Revolution 15) there are two guys that look over the arena. It’s a small field so cheating is hard on it if you try.
Facts I just bought my first starter kit and I did it for $140 buying a gun bbs and a mask and goggles
Ok got it, so when i am in a airsoft match i should just bring my whole tool box.
Yep
Pretty much...
And a flashlight
and a dildo

yeah cause its a lays bag
fuck off xDDD
Lol
Everything on my list:
- solid glasses
- nice face mask
- pistol
- plate carrier
No carrier. Just a hoodie.
Edit unless you want to carry mags for long games, I’m not your parent.
Drop the carrier, you got pockets, don't ya?
@@itzbeendakavgaming5632 plate carrier is better than reloading from your pockets
@@baconlord9062 or unless you wanna save yourself from getting shot by high fps guns
dude just runs a carrier, no clothes.
Gents, this is a LOT more Gotham what you NEED to start airsofting. Here’s the stuff I started with:
1. AEG - I put a lot of money into my first AEG, way too much in hindsight. I’d recommend an Elite Force or G&G M4 starter kit. They run for about $150, and come with all the necessary parts for your gun to work. They always include at least a battery or two, usually a hi-cap magazine, and a smart charger, which alone costs about $40 bucks, so you’re already saving.
2. Either 1 more hi-cap magazine (Stamped Metal ones are usually cheapest for M4’s) or 2 mid-range mid-caps (go with a polymer mid-cap, they’re easier to come by, they’re cheaper, and parts are much easier to find, in the rare event your magazine fails completely). It also doesn’t hurt to buy another spare pack of springs for your magazine, just in case.
3. Face protection. I started with a cheap pair of sealed goggles and a mesh lower mask, but I would recommend a new player these two pieces, both can be found on Amazon. A one-Tigris foldable lower face mask, and a pair of Pyramex I-Force Sporty goggles. They fit my face perfectly, and there is little to no gap after some light adjustment. For reference, my ancestry is French as well, and it even fits over my big ass nose.
As for some other gear that you can re-purpose things from around your house that can save you some money:
4. Any kind of dark clothing, but also somewhat bulky and light-weight. What I mean by this is a pair of old jeans, a t-shirt, and an old sweatshirt. Even better if you go hiking regularly and have some quick-dry pants. They work just as good for airsoft, just make sure they can withstand a lot of abuse, or are an old pair you don’t really care about to begin with.
5. Any kind of satchel, or bag. I started out with an army navigator’s pouch, or “Fag Bag” for those of you who were in the infantry. They have two pockets so I used one for full mags, the other for empty ones. It also has spots for pens and other supplies as need be.
6. Old boots or shoes. Boots are preferable if you’re outdoors, also indoors for the most part, but some old sneakers should do for your first game or two. Just watch your footing if you don’t have much ankle support.
7. Gardening or work gloves. I was fortunate enough to already own a pair of Mechanics gloves, so those are what I’ve used forever, and I love them. But you will need gloves. Getting shot in the finger absolutely sucks. It’s worse than anywhere else I’ve been shot. And I’ve been shot in the tip of my dick through thin pants. Any gloves will do. Just don’t wear anything too bulky that you won’t be able to be comfortable when handling your weapon.
8. A hat. I’ve always worn one of my grandpa’s old Boonie hats from ‘Nam. They’re absolutely perfect for where I’m at (North Carolina). You can get them in just about every pattern and size, and the brim is actually really effective at deflecting shots from your eyes and ears.
9. A bright rag. Preferably red to be used as a dead rag.
All in all, the combined total here for the stuff I didn’t have was about $250 usd, which is about $200 bucks less than what they’re saying you need in this video. Starting airsoft is more about being resourceful than anything. I’ve met guys who have a total of $300 bucks into their load out, and wreck ass on the field because they spent their cash on the basics, and spent less time working, and more time playing. Get out there and play some airsoft, boys!
Another tip: ARMY NAVY STORES ARE YOUR HOLY LAND. I bought a pair of old BDU’s for a total of $5 bucks for a top and pant pair. Stocked up on them as well, because 5 bucks is a steal for any bdu set
Why do I suddenly feel poor
And all you need is 3-4 grand for a complete airsoft loadout.
LeveledLariat but the experience is the thing that can't be bought
LeveledLariat i spent 250 EUR.
Wrong, I got my setup for like 500 something USD with the demo ranch gun
Not all airsoft guns have mags. Some take clips. (98k) Remember, upgrade guns from the inside out. Don't buy stuff that you don't need or just to look cool. Be safe.
***** I beg your pardon.
He said you have an extra chromosome. Hammerhead shark lookin self
thepurespartanify You right
thepurespartanify Not really, Airsoft is a fashion show, and I think I can do just as well with a mediocre gun with a lot of faff on it as I could with an internally upgraded gun. It's not a competition so there's no real reason to upgrade your gun to the max. My friend has so much useless shit on his kit and has put more money into an EoTech and other shit for his gun than he has upgrading it, but he has fun doing it. And that's really all Airsoft is about.
projectcalamity I will agree, much of it is a fashion show. Though, some people have fun not only from just playing but from winning as well and that's just people that a competitive mindset like myself. Having a gun that can compliment your skill set will make you all that much better, given, one can't perfom as well with a gun they've never used. A bad player will remain a bad player given both a good and bad gun. The good players will perform like an average player, given a bad gun but a great player with a good gun. Having quality gear is great. Just like how driving a Honda Accord fast is fun, but isn't it even more fun to drive fast in a Lamborghini huracan?
I don't know what's worse, EA or airsoft. They both take your money so easily and so fast
Salvatore Squatrito ikr
Salvatore Squatrito airsoft actually lets you go outside. Not spending money on in game players, that's just gross
At least Airsoft is huge fun :)
Salvatore Squatrito can't forget paintball
Hetzer Hasser agreed
I dont feel like this is an good beginner guide. When your an beginner you dont even know if you want to keep playing airsoft so i dont Think you should spent so much money on something you May not keep playing. I am not saying this is an bad video i am just giving my opinion on what information i Think should be given to a new player. Maybe talk about your first gun and what you Can expect on the first time on the feild.
I watch this just cuz I can. I have most everything I want for airsoft but it's just fun to watch.

exactly my situation I'm just a backyard skirmisher
+Spencer Knott pretty sure most airsofters start that way :D
+Spencer Knott just go along to a skirmish one day. Its fun just done be afraid to get into the action sitting at the back is boring
+Nitrojet6 yeah, i'm pretty sure all you need is like a gun eye protection... some extra ammo and maybe something to protect your chest and back after that your good to go :P
Bottom line: You need to be rich to be an airsofter xD
Not exalty, 200 $ would get you started. Gun gear and all.
+tanman650 Well, more like $400 or $500 but around $150-$200 for a good gun.
Not if you have a good military surplus near you
My whole loadout costed about $450. Steep for teenagers like me lol
+Silvicat Green $350 is more than enough

What you really need to start: A decent gun, good bb's, just 2 batteries, approved eye pro, a USED BDU from a thrift shop, and a few USED mags.
Who this tutorial is for: 21 year olds with a decent job, or 18 and under kids who have parents with cash.
This is an awesome video and I am glad you guys put this video up for any beginners or veterans to airsoft to check out!
man its an expensive sport...
not if you buy gear & clothes from ebay used military surplus.
You can play for only $150 you know
As expensive as you make it. A simple jacket can carry the mags. Two to four spare mags. A sneaker are just fine.
Remember, this guys is a salesman. 😉
wear death gun cosplay and use a L115A3 and WE-Tech TT33
Great video and very informative and well thought out.
So far everything you have said has been common sense

Hey Evike,
I am a relatively new player, and don't play all that often (4 games in 5 months) and I have a belt setup.
I was wondering you you could do a video on belts and possible belt setups. I mainly see chest and plate carriers. I would like some ideas of bettering my belt
(3 canteens, 1 small- first aid bag, one medium, one large, and a Nerf Drop leg holster)
3 canteens dayumn!
really liked the start of the vid, rings very true
Awesome video. It helped me a lot.
I will
Stay in watching other guys play airsoft im too broke for this sport
Same here 😔
Same but im making huge sacrifice and buying 190-200€ elctric rifle it comes with battery and charger so thats good
they need to get a store in florida and field because there is a lot of space to build down here in the woods and fields

Great video!
Awesome video, you guys covered everything useful that I can think of other than comms, but beginners shouldn't be using comms anyway.
Never knew you played airsoft!! Haha legos and airsoft.
Yeah it is kinda funny. I've always had an interest in guns and how they work, so I started making Lego guns when I was younger, and then it branched out into airsoft, which I highly enjoy.
They forgot a bag of legos durp durp durp!!!
Hannibal Smith IMO legos are useless unless everyone is barefoot, because if everyone is barefoot, and you have legos, what use is there for claymores and s-thunder mines?
Lol
“No matter what your using, all air soft guns need magazines”, ummm revolvers¿??
nat Jones nobody really uses revolvers, i may get one for the memes though.
To add to that, Shotguns and melee.
Thanks evike, i bought an HK-mp5 and its awesome. thanks so much
I have played a lot but watched this for my brother it's great
Are there also goggles made for ppl with glasses?
Elic BFH buy some surplus ESS profile NVG goggles, they’re like $20 used, but $100 new.
Stop over using milsim
Yeah instead of telling them they should use a helmet, use a baseball cap or a bandana.
The only thing a helmet is good for is protection from hitting your head if you slip or fall
@@CaleTheNail like you ain't gonna die if you get hit in the head with a bb lmao
@@cabnbeeschurgr6440 It'll hurt, but everything hurts. Correct.
Awesome vids guys 🇬🇧
A good gun I recommend is the classic army issc mk22. It shoots 360 to 380 and does great due to the barrel size and is only $175 on evike.

This was very useful thanks
Planning on buys most of my gear from your website!
fun fact. my gun does not take magazines
Cool
I can only imagine it's like a thing with a built in magazine and you pop in one bb at a time.
+Simon Cooper lol
Simon Cooper no it's a wind up magazine, it sucks but the gun itself is great
But.... It takes a wind up magazine. You mean a high cap? It has a small wheel under it that you wind and bbs will be ready to shoot. Most AEGs have them.
You don't actually need most of these
This guy is a god of airsoft, I’ll listen to you
Also one suggestion on the guns is a third backup gun. It can be spring pistol or a compact spring shotgun that you can use in a last resort.
Step one: sell kidney
Step two: raid your moms purse
Thats all
4:26 woooowwwww. Sleeping on springer master race I see. They're the best we have, braving the frontline with equipment like that. Disappointing..

I've played airsoft, you don't need half of the shit here.
But was the experience good? You said "played" soo it makes it sound like it wasnt good. Soooo
+Cade Caris that comment makes no sense, if you don't like it then you just spent $400
They were mainly covering stuff for milsim games.
airaoft=rich people only pretty much paintball=normal people
Airsoft is more realistic that's why.
all u really need is a gun ($150 for a decent one) face mask/eye protection and bbs, and if u don't want to buy a gun u can rent one at the field for $30 with 1 mag and unlimited bbs so not that expensive unless u r really serious about it. where as paint ball guns can cost allot. My friend had bought a starting paintball Gun for $250, in airsoft that would be a higher end gun.
+Albert Liparoti it will cost you about 500 total
x x if your talking about the airsoft, the gun $150, bbs $20 for alot, and face mask $40 that's around $235 with tax.
+Albert Liparoti yeah but remember you want to go with a secondary plus the vest and camo clothing's also you want to take a grip
nice vid. very up to date
Thanks for the tips
He wasn't wearing bdus he was wearing ocps.
Jacob Vaughn BDU means battle dress uniform. OCP means operational camouflage pattern.OCP is camo and BDU are uniforms.
Not BDUs though, but ACUs. BDUs or Battle Dress Uniforms are the cut employed by all branches of the U.S military from 1981 ('77 for the marines) to ~2004. Battle Dress Uniforms were in the M81 Woodland Camouflage Pattern, a refinement of the ERDL (Engineer Research and Development Laboratories). The cut style of BDUs are derived from the third pattern OG-107. On the other hand, the ACU is a brand new style of cut (well, brand new in 2004) initially using the UCP (Universal Camouflage Pattern) but now using OCP, which you correctly stated as a camouflage pattern.
TL;DR, not all fatigues, including fatigues in OCP, ACU, MarPat, et cetera, are BDUs as they use their own cut styles.
*sigh* here comes the armchair quartermasters........ ok so, BDU's, or Battle Dress Uniforms, is the specific style of cut employed by the U.S military in both the Vietnam Jungle fatigues type III and the standard uniform for all U.S armed forces from 1981-2004 (give or take 2 years). ONLY the uniforms called BDU (in M81 Woodland), DBDU (in six color desert camouflage), Jungle Fatigues Type III (in OD Green) and DCU's (in three color desert camouflage) are in this style of cut. Now, the current combat fatigues employed by the U.S Army in OCP/Multicam employ is called ACU, or Army Combat Uniform. Recognize the name? That is because this style of cut was adopted in 2004/2005 in the well known/hated UCP or Universal Camouflage Pattern.
I wish i was rich );
Yeah, not exactly a 'beginners guide', more a sales pitch. Which is fine, but....
This will help a lot
Thanks for the guide! helped me alot! :)
Well I can't buy this stuff I don't have the money 😔 unless you want to hook me up evike
the video isnt accurate, the only things you need is a gun, maybe an extra mag, bbs and gas if your gun needs it.
gun is about 150$ for a decent one.
magazine costs about 10-20$.
bbs are about 20$ for 5000 0.20g bbs.
gas kinda depends.
U can buy a 120 aeg dollar gun (if ur broke 50 dollar gas nbb will do it), goggles for 10 bucks, mag for 10 dollars and a mask for 7 dollars bc getting shot in the mouth hurts, gas or battery (like 10 dollars), BBs (like 5 to 10 dollars) under 170 or 100 bux

true begginners guide
1- eye protection
2- airsoft gun (primary only, no need for secundary) and BBs
3- face protector (optional in some places)
4 -nothing else, you can literaly put mags in your jean pocket for all I care
of course you can always add something but I think you should try it out first see what you think was missing, what you needed. I believe these are the true basics,for real thats what I took for my first game, got some tips from the people there and whenI knew the sport was for me bought more, these kinds of videos just make airsoft seem like milionare's nerf
Good list ans sensible ideas. thanks
You even rolled your sleeves correctly, very nice.
very informative video
Thanks for the video
Nearly 400,000 subscribers. Crikey. That would be a cool number to habe in Australia as a lobby group. Even if airsoft in Australia was capped at 400fps, that would be just fine.
To my first game, I wore jeans, a hoodie, and brought a Lancer tactical lt-19 b with 2 high cap magazines. It's all you need to have a good time
you actually can not eat on the field at my field if you are a minor, you are required to keep the lower mask on (but I have a water tube go through the gap since there is a gap in the lower half of my mask, the top half is fully sealed though)
Thank you that helped me
well put together video
👌👌👌👍👍👍👏👏👏
If you want a chest rig for cheap ($20-$30) check aliexpress for plate carriers. Many have pouches included, and are actually molle compatable. A downside is that they smell horrible when you open them.
Thanks u helped me alot
Thanks really helps
The best score streak is the UAV it reveals all enemies on the map, the best camping spot is on the top of blue house out of the window right outside the two busses
All you really need for airsoft to start out is good boots , mesh goggles because they don't fog , a g&g gun (they're reliable and good priced) a spare magazine and battery and BBS .... Primary guns rarely fail get what you need first not a holo sight ect
BDU is the military’s woodland camo, there’s also ABU, OCP
