Hi folks.

My name is Chris, but for ten years now, people have known me as Vard, an abbreviation of my surname, thusly shall I be known to you.

I'm 21, and living near Swindon, in Wiltshire in the UK.

I'm registering here primarily as an Airsofter, more than a Stargate fan, though I am currently working my way through SG-1, and will follow it with Atlantis, Universe and then the films, unless anoyne can correct my chronological understanding of them for me! :P

I've been an Airsofter for more than three years now, and it was in fact SG-1, (the scene where Carter shows the Jaff'r the P90 I think,) that urged me into chosing the P90 as my initial weapon, so I opted for the Tokyo Marui RD (Red Dot) or Standard model, which has served me faultlessly since.

I'm currently trying to make a better organised loadout around the P90, and am on the hunt for good solutions to ammunition carrying, and sling options - I was hunting through Google, and this site was prominently suggested by a couple of the results I read through.

I thought it couldn't hurt to sign up, have a bit of a browse - see what solutions people have developed or opted for before me, be it for costuming or for actual skirmishing purposes.

Out of personal curiosity - I have had a quick scan of a handful of the more general subforums, and I can't really seem to tell - am I in a minority, being an active Airsoft skirmisher, rather than a costuming member?

Anyway, I'll stop rambling and go have a bit more of a browse.



Vard out.

Welcome to the site!

A lot of Stargate costumers either start off as airsofters, or become airsofters afterward. I think there's a couple other members in the UK who play.

Personally I just use the Blackhawk Medic/Utility vest when airsofting with the P90. Although it only fits two mags on the outside (with room for more on the inside), I use the pockets for other stuff, and keep my other mags in a drop leg pouch.

As for a sling I use a Blackhawk three point sling. Mainly because I picked it up cheap, but it works great. There have been screen accurate chest harnesses made, but they cost more.
