Pack list

The staff of Airsoftderrs have played a lot of airsoft (including three Megawars) over the past few years. Here's some recommendations from our experience.

 

  • DON'T FORGET your waiver and field registration form!
  • Primary weapon (Suggest an AEG with 350-420 fps)
  • Backup weapon (This includes a secondary weapon to carry with you --like a gas pistol--and an extra rifle in case something happens)
  • Batteries and charger for your gun and back-up gun
  • Extra batteries. (Standard 8.4v 1100MaH batteries typically only last about 3hrs, so get an extra one or two)
  • BBs. Biodegradable ONLY (earth tones--black, brown, dark green, dark grey--also acceptable. Snipers with .30g and higher weight BBS are exempt)
  • Lots of BBs (Depending on how you play, you may need btwn 5000-10,000rds)
  • Nerf weapons (swords, maces, and missile firing weapons...don't bring "normal" nerf guns--they're useless)
  • Tennis balls  (These can be used as "grenades" for most or all of the events this year)
  • Food and Water is BYO so plan accordingly
  • Camping supplies for Friday night 
  • Bug spray
  • Flashlight
  • Walkie-Talkie radios (and extra batteries)
  • Back-Pack/ Field-Pack for all your gear. You don't want to be that guy who leaves his team to go reload
  • Ducktape and some basic tools are often handy
  • Gloves
  • Boots
  • Knee pads
  • Face mask
  • Eye protection
  • Hand sanitizer 
  • Small first-aid kit  

 

Did you know? You can use tennis balls as "grenades" for some (or all) of the events at Megawar 2014.
