Do you have to be AV'd to get to the gear section now?

I don't believe so, last time I checked you didn't have to be 18+ to buy clothes.

They may have locked it though because of people sneaking parts in with their gear sale threads, I've seen a lot of that lately.

i have been keeping an eye open in the gear section, im just about to go to school so im on a bit of a budget. if it only lasts me a season or two i would be fine with that. ideally id like something from eagle but condor would do, so somthing in the sub 200 range

I've got a real HSGI weesatch up for less than $200.

I'm just making a shift in my gear, otherwise I love the damn thing.

You can get some good deals on Redwolf. Shipping is a bit much, but they have a huge selection of gear. See if any of your pals want to do a group order.

ive been looking at the condor quick release, now i cant seem to find out what its made with, 600d or 1000d codura. as far as a have found only the multicam one is 1000d codura. would that be correct?

Sorry, I have no idea what Condor is made with and frankly don't care anymore after my experience with their products.

If you really want Condor quality (price too; you get what you pay for)... PoCo Military carries them, if you're in that area. I wouldn't recommend you go there as my experience with them was them trying to sell me a few hundred dollars worth of stuff that I really didn't need then or now. There is also Warcraft Games (I think that's what they're called...) in Mission and another PoCo Military location... somewhere, lol.

Redwolf carries mostly Pantac stuff. They're supposedly an awesome brand (I haven't had any experience with their products... yet. Damn you, Canada Post and CBSA. Three weeks is way more than enough of a wait). AFAIK, local guys do Redwolf orders on a somewhat regular basis - if you get to know some of them... us... well, you might be able to hop into one of our orders sometime.

In terms of style choices, you know what you could do - show up to a local game and take a look at other players' rigs. Some guys would totally let you try stuff on, or at least show you how they set their gear up and where they store everything. The club I mostly play with is called Op-For and they play mostly at Panther Paintball in Surrey. Feel free to drop by sometime and introduce yourself. You can take a look at the rigs people have and do a rough comparison of the quality of different brands' offerings.
