Does anyone have any specific loadout they use when they goto an airsoft skirmish or war? This should be an intresting topic once we get enough people discussing it. Heres a link to a pistol I might be getting.

Are you talking conventional airsoft or the home brew stuff people around here make? Because that will make a huge difference.
For my airsoft rig I have a TM G36c with a 509mm inner barrel and a KWA PTP M9. I run with 3 short mags and 4 mid cap mags for the G36 and 3 mags for my M9.
Also, if you can get that particular pistol, get it, now. Because Glock started lawsuits against so many manufacturers that there are no more Glock airsoft guns being made.

I always stuck with my Crosman gear when I used to skirmish. I had the C11 airmag pistol and the folding stock AK. No extra mags, and my clothing choices were usually a tee shirt and jeans.

Anything. What ever you use in an airsoft war. Yeah I kinda figured they would start up some sort of law suit, but I dont have $200 to pay for the glock... So yeah, I may create my own version, just without blowback
G36c's are awesome, but a 509mm inner barrel? Arent most airsoft bb's 6mm? Or are you talking length? M9's are pretty good, my usual set up is a cheapy crosman Stinger P9, and I usually borrow a friends airsoft gun till I get my prototype sniper completed. Works out pretty well.

He means length.
As for skirmishing, i'm too young. However they do look like alot of fun.

Nice jake. How are you too young qwerty? Your never too young for a skirmish with airsoft guns! Unless your under 13 that is... Gader, crosman usually has good stuff, but against the stuff I skirmish against, its crap. Crosman vs. Crosman is usually pretty good, but crosman vs. 400+ airsoft guns, not very good.. I am making a vortex bbmg for the next skirmish, just as a punch in the gut to everyone who thinks it wont do much.

I'm 14 but you have to play with an adult and my dad is hardly the one who would play in an airsoft skirmish.

Have fun pumping it up while you get sprayed with AEGs.

What about MTs, knives, knee pads, cord, LBE, eye protection, holsters, camouflage, canteens, FIRST AID, ...? So far this is Airsoft GUN preferences

My normal loadout is an upgraded JG bar-10 as my primary weapon, and either the HFC m9 vertec or Crosman c11 as a secondary. I have three magazines for the sniper, and two for each pistol.
Most of the time I play airsoft at night, so I usually just wear dark clothes.

Camo is still better at night...
My loadout is my Vortex M16, backpack airtank, Taurus spring pistol side arm, camo head wrap (like a terrorist lol
), jeans and a long sleeve camo shirt. Or if we play sniper vs. pistols, I'll go solo with the UTG Pro whatever sniper, no side arm.

Crosman vs. Crosman is good, but when I have Crosman guns and my buddies all have cheap little springers, it's even better.

No offense, Crosman guns ARE cheap little springers

Yeah, I dont pump mine, I have a back pack air tank like Gun Freak. For our skirmishes its just a bunch of teens in a backyard with a bunker built up ontop of a hill. It gets boring after the first couple rounds, but then we change teams and stuff.
