you know, this reminds me of this girl in my chemistry class.  A few days ago, she asked if the final exam will be in scantron form or if we will just write our answers on the paper. 

When I heard that, I thought to myself, what does it matter?

Woodland BDU jacket and pants. Sometimes I just wear my grey/black JT jersey and my camo pants though.

Body armor really isn't necessary unless you are noticing that it really hurts when you get hit. For people with skin or heart problems, I would also suggest body armor. Remember, if you have a heart problem, all it takes is one shot in the right place to end everything. Other than that though, body armor is a waste. If I can take 3 rounds in my back from 1.5 feet away with just a jersey on, you can certainly take a couple rounds from 10 feet away wearing a camo jacket!

I wear whatever is comfortable and helps me blend in with my surroundings. On cool days when it's not too hot and not too cold I wear woodland BDU pants and a realtree T-shirt (couldn't find one in woodland). If it's a little colder I'll put my woodland BDU jacket on over the T-shirt. When it gets really cold I wear an extra pair of pants under my camo and I have a winter jacket in woodland which is extremely warm. On my hands I usually wear my Raven half finger gloves but in extreme cold I wear the big winter gloves (I manage to shoot the gun with them on somehow). I always wear a cup to protect my...um...self and I wear two pairs of socks in my boots to add a little more cushioning. If it's very cold out I have thick wool socks that keep my feet very warm. I don't usually wear anything on my head but occasionally I'll wear a camo hat under my mask. That's about it for normal rec games.

At scenarios I have that stuff and I also have a vest from COPS911. On the vest I have a radio pocket at the top, a big utility pocket for smoke/paint grenades, and I attached a thing to hold 10 round tubes of paint or 12 gram CO2 cartridges for my pistol. I also carry my pistol on my right leg just in case I need a small gun for something. To most people that's just a bunch of extra junk but I find uses for it all and it really comes in handy. I used it at west point and I plan to use it at every scenario from now on. The best part is that it's a modular vest so I can move the pockets around or add/remove them if i want to so it can always be changed to meet my needs. You can see me at west point here. It was fairly cold out so I had all my winter stuff on. I'm kneeling down with my A5 with Reb Cpl to my right (your left). Just in case you're wondering who those other people are; the guy above Reb is Pistol Pete, to his right is Dredly, then Thompsonshooter, and Freelance. The other 2 I don't really know, they came with one of the people I named I think.

Realtree jeans, realtree jersey t-shirt, realtree baseball hat. If it gets chilly, I have a realtree velux jacket. Realtree is realcheap. It's not the best quality out there, but if you only wear it for paintball, It oughta last for a few years.

I also have a green JT paintball jersey that I got from goodwill. Man, I'm cheap!

The sky darkens. In the distance you can hear the roar of the A-5. You shudder for you know it soon will be here.
