Machineabuse Posted June 11, 2005 Report Share Posted June 11, 2005 You can use the same kit you do in woodland for urban. But you generally want to ditch any pouches hanging off your sides and rear so you don't get snagged through doorways. Face protection is a good idea , body armor is up to you. My LBV does a good job of blunting BB impacts expecially with kit in it, as does my hydration system. Once again, do everything you can to minimise snagging. Door handles and kit don't mix. CQB regulars will know what I'm talking about. Link to post Share on other sites

cpaxton Posted June 11, 2005 Report Share Posted June 11, 2005 I've only ever done CQB once I've bought it from a lot of places, too, and it's NOT cheap at all, with the whole lot (including guns) coming in at over £1200... That said, most of it came from OPTG, and the rest was from all over the damn place <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Havoc if you are only 15 where do you get over a grand to spend on airsoft?!

However, if you've got a hole in your wallet and some talent at bodging you could always modify your kit to-purpose. If the pouches are soft enough, you can fold them out of the way, and sew a velcro/fastex closure over them to keep them tucked away till you need them. Just a few ideas. And while most budget gear is OK, I would reccomend stay away from Viper brand kit unless you want to tear it apart to make your own stuff or spend a lot of time re-stitching seams.

Guest Posted June 17, 2005 Report Share Posted June 17, 2005 i was going to get some cqb stuff, but i never got round to doing it. try this guy lewis770@hotmail.com his company is based in the phillipines and it makes whatever you want in black in your size. For £95 you can get black soldier 95 bdu's(trousers and shirt), thin swat style balaclava and a current issue body armour vest in black. and postage, it is quite expensive, but compared to some of the prices her, it isnt that bad. I would say get an l.a. special forces vest by viper, get it on ebay or from your local shop, both about £30 (used to be £20 on ebay, but not anymore) http ://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=588&item=6538621266 or get a viper new york swat vest, pouches are modular, 4 pistold pouches, 4 rifle mag pouchs (i think) radio pouche, small backpack and others, all modular. ebay, around £40 airsoft shop £60+ http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...6538648158&rd=1 a drop leg mp5 mag pouch you can get it off ebay for around £15.00 or your local airsoft shop for around £20+ or m16 mag pouch in black you can get it off ebay about £16 - £22 or about £27 in local airsoft shop (or if you don't use either varient just ignore that) mp5 = http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...7163028465&rd=1 m16 = http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...6539329497&rd=1 viper drop leg hostler in black off ebay £12 local shop £20 it takes all glocks, berettas, most colts, pos mk 23. all medium frame pistols http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...6539284755&rd=1 viper m88 swat helmetm, with three camo covers ebay £25 - £30 airsoft shop £38 http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...ssPageName=WDVW hope that helps Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted June 18, 2005 Report Share Posted June 18, 2005 and knee + elbow pads on black, or just knee pads. get them from your local airsoft shop, around £20 for knee and £17 - £20 for elbow. and all of the stuff i said in my this post and the one above, should fit you. how tall are you?

spuddeh Posted June 18, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2005 lol thanks for all the help mate, um id say around 4ft Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted June 18, 2005 Report Share Posted June 18, 2005 lol thanks for all the help mate, um id say around 4ft <{POST_SNAPBACK}> no seriously, cos im 12 and i had an olive la swat vest and it fit me and i had a newyork swat vest and it was a bit loose but if you wear body armour underneath it should fit. buy some camping mat foam cut it to shape and stick it in a body armour cover and voila you have custom body armour. im 5ft 6-7 and it all fits me so judge it on that.

sillyrabbit Posted June 23, 2005 Report Share Posted June 23, 2005 I am looking to build up a loadout, and I could use the advice... should I go traditional bdus? or get a flightsuit or coverall setup??? here's my list: what am I missing...??? PASGT Helmet (replica) (black) Backlava (black nomex) Goggles (ess or bolle x-800) Bdu Shirt (black,navy,or grey) (OR FLIGHTSUIT OR COVERALL) Bdu Pants (black,navy or grey) (OR LIGHTSUIT OR COVERALL) Boots (black what brand???)

i_is_oli Posted June 24, 2005 Report Share Posted June 24, 2005 Well...what i'm going to be doing: - Dark Blue Coveralls LAPD SWAT Patch on Left arm Black utility belt with black drop leg holster on the right hand side. Black dump pouch on the left hand side Milforce US Tactical Police Vest SWAT cap Possibly pads and gloves..not essential though And then the weapons M16A2 with M203 for woodland with KWA Glock 19 and polished silver barrel At the moment...TM MP5A4 SWAT style, but hopefully soon to be M4A1 SWAT with Sig P226 Oli Link to post Share on other sites
Para Posted June 24, 2005 Report Share Posted June 24, 2005 I would say if its all indoors then black but if there is a bit outdoors but not woodland then get urban. Thats my opinion though. Link to post Share on other sites
i_is_oli Posted June 24, 2005 Report Share Posted June 24, 2005 It depends on the look you're going for in the end. I've seen many people wear all black SWAT/ Police for woodland, and it does look very effective...however, you are much more exposed to the opposition. Personally, i wear British DPM for woodland, with a black tac vest..this seems to look good, and work effectively. Urban of any form- e.g. mainly buildings, but with the odd woodland bit, I would stick by my idea of dark blue/ black coveralls or BDUs. Oli Link to post Share on other sites
HaVoC Posted June 24, 2005 Report Share Posted June 24, 2005 My new CQB gear is a pair of 5.11 Tactical Pants, and an HSGI drop holster. I can get 7 M4 mags in the trousers, plus my radio, and that's all I need! Link to post Share on other sites
i_is_oli Posted June 24, 2005 Report Share Posted June 24, 2005 sounds good to me I need the dump pouch now....got too much i wanna carry :S Link to post Share on other sites
sillyrabbit Posted June 25, 2005 Report Share Posted June 25, 2005 how about some pics of all these different setups to get some ideas??? thanks Link to post Share on other sites
Jun Wen Posted June 26, 2005 Report Share Posted June 26, 2005 I wanted a CQB setup, despite the fact that the area lacks any CQB fields and I had a tight budget to work with. Still, I shopped around and got what I could at a price that was managable. This is my set: Replica PASGT sprayed matte black Bolle T800 goggles Black polypropylene balaclava Black polypropelyne neck gaiter Black BDU set Blackhawk Omega Vest (Black... of course) Black web belt Hellstorm 1/2 finger SOLAG gloves Alta knee and elbow pads Altama boots of some kind Other random pieces include an old-fashioned boom mic for the radio and a Surefire holster-thingy on my belt for my 8NX. I have pictures, but they were from a long while back with poor lighting... and my finger appears to be on the trigger... a lot. Haha. Link to post Share on other sites
