gear

gear well there is all sorts of different kinds of gear. airsofters call there gear tac gear short for tactical gear. the point of having gear is for the most part to carry magazines on to the field and some time water and other stuff like jackets food, bbs, air tanks, green gas or propane.. there are five main kind of gear i will make a list

1 plate carrier
2. pouches
3. backpacks
4. holsters
5. vests

plate carriers,  in the past there name sums it all up but not now. the plate carrier was made for carrieing ballistic plate (ballistic plates aka body armor are made to stop bolits) but in airsoft there are no need to carrier the plates senice there are no bulites  flying at you. the carriers have this thing called MOLLE to sum up what MOLLE dose there are rows of webbing on the plate carrier and you weave your pouch on to your vest. so airsofters use the system to carry mags on them just like the miltery dose. her are some picuters of plate carriers



pouches are the the thing that holds the madzines for you gun and they come in all sorts of sizes and shapes some are for holding magzines some are for holding water bottles or you flashlight and knife or medical gear or what ever you want them to hold here are some pic the one on top is for holding mags the next one is for holding a water balder
 
back packs are used to carry more thing they are not common to use.in airsoft there is no need to carry a tent of cooking gear or other stuff but they are used to carry air tanks for classic type of airsoft guns i use a tac gear back pack for school i use one like this for school
 
holsters there are a poop ton of different kind of holsters made out of all sorts of different kinds of stuff like plastic and leather we use holsters to carry your side arm ie your pistol they hold them safe and are most of the time easy to draw from the holster. another resen why we use a holster is so we can draw are side arm fast. most of the time you never use your side arm you have it with you in case you main arm goes down ie jams you run out of rounds or whatever so you need to get to your side arm fast a with a holster you can do that. here are some pics i use a holster like the one in the first pic i like it because there is no think need to work it so that mean i can draw fast every time all i need to draw my side arm is to press the butin and pull out and when i need to re holster it all i have to do is push it back in to the holster. the one in the second pic there is nothing holding the gun in beside the presser of the holster holding it so you draw i vary fast the one in the third pic has a thum break system so with that kind you have to press the lever to pull out the gun and when re holstering the gun you push it in and then move the flap over the top of the gun so this makes for a slower re holstering then the two above it. the forth pic is the cheapest one you can get it is the slowest one to.
t 
vests well as you can guess there are lots of different kinds to a vest dose not hold a plate most of the time and a lighter then plate carriers. the subject vest also includes chest rigs in my eyes a chest rig is the lightest way to go most of the time there is o no back and they do not cover all of your chest like my chest rig it is very small and light the one bad thing about chest rigs are they are not very good with dealing with weight unlike a plate carrier witch is very good at doing that. most of the time thay have MOLLE on them like the plate carriers. here are some pics.the one in the fist pic is like the one i use a vary small and light weight chest rig. the rig in the second pic is what a chest rig would look like. the one in the third is a vest that you would see alot of time.

i will talk about all of these subjects more in depth over time thank you for reading and i will be posting more airsoft good ness over time
