Skirmish Day ESSENTIALS | What to PACK | AATV EP206

[@AnvilAirsoftTV]

What do you take to a game that others don’t?

[@junglesairsoftblog6311]

An old German issue folding sleeping mat, folds up a little over A4 size by about 40mm thick, perfect as a kneeling or sitting mat or unfolded as a dry clean space to repair guns/cook food/have a kip.

[@AnvilAirsoftTV]

That’s a great idea.

[@Steve_281]

Tape. I always carry different tape; electrical tape, black maskers and sniper tape. Oh, and zinc oxide tape in the booboo kit.

[@tommo9757]

Cheers Tom. I think you've been going through my kit. One point to note is for the Leatherman. Carry it inside your kitbag, not just rattling around your car, or you could get done for it if stopped by the cops. If it's in you bag, it's justifiable use.

[@AnvilAirsoftTV]

Good point. Mine locking blade Wave stays firmly in my kitbag or at the bottom of my pack when hiking. I’ll put a mention in the description.

[@tyleraustin3837]

I usually take a small pop up canopy with tables so I have my own small ready station 👏

[@AnvilAirsoftTV]

Nice idea!

[@Matt-pv6ew]

For carrying extra bb’s outside of magazines or speedloaders, I use lynx body wash bottles - they fit perfectly in any stanag mag pouch, holds lots of bbs and unless you’re down to the final few, make minimal rattling and the small neck at the top of the bottle is perfect for tipping into speedloaders, high cap mags or LMG box mags. I’ve been doing it for years and people are always surprised and amazed. Just make sure you’ve emptied and cleaned the bottle before first use otherwise you’ll end up with a bubble gun. Also: A spare sling - you never know when yours will break or someone forgets theirs. A torch - especially for urban sites you don’t know.

[@AnvilAirsoftTV]

All sound ideas.

[@junglesairsoftblog6311]

Nice video Tom, nailed it!

[@bravotactical8517]

Love the videos 👍

[@MrGunnerpad]

A camping chair and a brolly! Or gazebo/pop up tent. Ideal if a site has limited facilities, its raining, and you don't want to sit in your car.

[@AnvilAirsoftTV]

Nice ideas.

[@nickgandy3]

Me and the team usually take a couple pop up tables and a tarp to tie up between our trucks for our own station/shelter especially when were parked next to the safe zone. That way all our kit is safe and were not swamped around other players.

[@AnvilAirsoftTV]

Sounds like a good plan.

[@Terminatorbart]

Good list! 👍

[@Rick_Makes]

You forgot to mention the Sherpa to help carry that kit to the safe zone. Not that I'm one to talk, I regularly fill a deployment bag with my kit for a walk on skirmish day.

[@AnvilAirsoftTV]

I’ll only play if I have a minion to load my mags for me ;)

[@derdersoft]

Usually bring a towel if it is particularly muggy. You covered that it the shemagh section. Also good call on the spare combats. Not fun to play the last games in a pair of duck taped trousers.

[@AnvilAirsoftTV]

Seen it so many times!

[@MisterD90x]

Great Video, ive been avoiding playing these this last month, far too hot for me :D

[@AnvilAirsoftTV]

Too hot for me too. I can cope out on my push bike but not running around in gear.

[@MisterD90x]

@@AnvilAirsoftTV since I saw your PSD Kit video, I decided to put together something similar to the Bush Shirt / Cargo loadout, hopefully will be a bit cooler than full Ratnik style gear :)

[@ellobo9604]

excellent video, hope it wasn't too rough for you in your downtime and looking forward to some more uploads now!

[@AnvilAirsoftTV]

Not going to lie. Wasn’t very nice!

[@VietnamWarShorts]

I personally do not like taking a lot of items, because it is hard to keep track of all of them, so maybe a tool kit will do and a spare battery.

[@AnvilAirsoftTV]

I just put things back straight after I use them!

[@adamnotansjw4055]

I wimped out playing as well

[@tommo9757]

Not wimped. Just sensible 👍

[@Gregory_Chesworth]

love the video, but most importantly WHERE DID YOU GET THE T-SHIRT????????

[@AnvilAirsoftTV]

I think it was from Tesco!

[@sip359]

Great video as always. I need to know what the roll that you had all of your batteries in. Ive been using a hard shell box but it takes up too much space and this could be just the thing. Cheers

[@AnvilAirsoftTV]

It’s a British army 5.56 Bandolier. Useful for making a wash/hygiene kit too.

[@sip359]

@@AnvilAirsoftTV Much obliged!

[@stewbacca117]

Did you get new shoulders or leave the hanger in that shirt? 🤔😜💪

[@Jesscrayons]

Change of clothes and gaming clothes is something I have always done and just about the best thing for so many reasons yet so many people don't do that and turn up dressed like a nock of action man and go home covered in mud.

[@Jesscrayons]

I also when I drive to games or go in someone else's car take a change of shoes as getting in a car with muddy boots on is a bad idea.

[@AnvilAirsoftTV]

I should have mentioned boots/shoes.

[@AnvilAirsoftTV]

I’ve seen a lot of people go home covered in mud with blown out trousers!
