PlasticMag Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 1- Ignore Rob15, he is a pervert. 2- Most tactical shops SHOULD have gear that works. Unless you're a midget you should have no problem at all finding a nice selection of tactical gear. Â www.cheaperthandirt.com is a good source for cheap gear. www.Lightfighter.com has the biggest lineup of quality (AND EXPENSIVE!) tactical nylon you'll ever need, want, or desire. www.redsoldier.com has Russian combat gear, should you decide to embrace the Rodina. Â Hope that helps. Link to post Share on other sites
ForeverAchild Posted July 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 THank you. Well I am..kinda a midget. 4'8" lol. I'm short, and small. >.< arent i lucky. Oh well THank you! Link to post Share on other sites
PlasticMag Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 Hmmm. Last GF was about that height. Good lord that would make it difficult now... Â Well, my suggestion is to go to a surplus shop and see what there is... Link to post Share on other sites
Major_Payne Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 i dont think she'll want to spend hundreds for tactical gear which would just probably be the vest alone. Nice copies would do, try to find some popular brand equipment such as Guarder and G&P. Link to post Share on other sites

Marshmallow Monster Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 whats the problem with just using regular tactical gear? It's not guys only or anything. The first real AEG game I went to had a woman there wearing regular tactical gear, nothing special, and she was probably only ~5 foot. Link to post Share on other sites
PlasticMag Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 Most reg. tac gear I've seen, used, or worn dislikes people under 5'2" Link to post Share on other sites
ForeverAchild Posted July 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 Yeah, Im really short, pretty skinny..(or so EVERY one says >.<) So, I really dont know where to go or anything at the moment. I would call up Chris to ask..But he just got in from work..SO he will be asleep. I was reading a forum just a bit ago. What is it that some guys get all hostile about..When a girl starts to like airsoft and they wanna play, but they are completely at a loss on what to do some times....And We ask questions..Why do they get all hostile?! ggrrr it bothers me. At least these few people got that way. Gggrrr do they get intimidated or something *hehe* Link to post Share on other sites
Marshmallow Monster Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 I don't mind it at all. Now (please, no one take affense at this) I don't like the fact that women can be on the front lines of a real battle field, but I see no reason why they shouldn't be able to atleast play war (which is all airsoft is really). Â I'm not sure why people get so hostile, but I guess I can see at times. If you are serious about playing, and not just a way to "find a guy/girl" then I see no reason not to play. I just don't like the girls (guys do it too, but talking from a guy stand point, guys don't do this to me at all, thankfully ) that join in just to flurt with all the guys. That ussually messes up the game or whatever it is. But, if you are actually playing to play the game and have a fun time imitating the military and whatever, then great! Play away! Â Anyway, that was way off topic lol. Link to post Share on other sites
ForeverAchild Posted July 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 Lol. Yeah, well no. My boyfriend was talking about it when we first started going out. And it sounded like something I really wanted to do. Being since I'm a hyper, abnormal chick...(not really..lol) And we've been wanting to play airsoft together for a while now. so..yeah. I guess I could see where some guys come from now..Seeing that MOST of the human population of girls..are clones that want to flirt...oh well.. So..Have any good websites that i should check out? o.0 Link to post Share on other sites
Major_Payne Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 http://imsplus.com/ims67a.html i think something like that would do fine for u, theres a girl wearing the vest as well might i add Link to post Share on other sites

Shao14 Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 Until you become a geardo, gears are really not that important. All you need is a BDU that suits your field, and a gun or two, and of course a pair of safety googles. You don't need a vest until you got more than 4 spare mags you want to take with you into battle. It's also easier to move around without all the extra gear. Â People don't get hostile when girls play, in fact, I think most of us wouldn't be more happier if there are more girls on the field. People get hostile when newbies (boys or girls) asking silly questions without searching first. Link to post Share on other sites

Pablo Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 I don't care what sex my team mates are, so long as they play well. Got no time for wallflowers. Â Various stuff can be found here. Oh, and here. It's all kids sizes, and not as great a range as perhaps you'd like. Link to post Share on other sites
Ghost_Rider Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 Camo can be found in most sizes, but vests are gonna be tricky.... Link to post Share on other sites
mobius9 Posted July 21, 2005 Report Share Posted July 21, 2005 I'm actually a slimmer build too, so I decided to sew myself a simple vest probably about a year ago. It works wonderfully with my g3 mags and even holds a camelback 2 liter pouch, but its not tall enough for me, and was dubbed the tactical corsette by my friends. I never wore it and it still has the sewing marker marks on it. Â Â Â Â I was going to trash it, but you can have it if you'd like. I've since bought a viper tacvest anyways.
