I use this for airsoft, paintball, and yes, even real guns. Simple as switching out mags. Use M9A1, and my AR Carbines.
I go to the Nevada desert and have fun. Lol.
I have a Save Phace coming in. As well as Damascus neoprene knee pads, VooDoo single point sling, and a Level III-A Kevlar vest coming in.
I also have Kevlar/nomex gloves with ceramic ablative inserts in them. (I can stop a knife thrust with my hand, grab the blade and yank it from you while remaining safe)
(All legal here)
You're likely wondering why...
Its fun.

I'd think, at least for paintball, you're wearing way too much, weighing yourself down. I'd go for camo colored paintball specific pants and matching camo colored jersey. You may also find a nice vertical pod pack that isn't black.
From over a decade of experience, I'd say tournament style gear and tactics work very well even in scenarios. Weighing yourself down with military looking stuff is a handicap (especially in under-performing military looking markers, whereas camo colored variants of speedball gear will keep you much more mobile and places highest interest on function.

But, can you slide? Plus, the helmet and extra hardware aren't good for bounces.
Just my opinion, but on more than one occasion I've played a scenario without even trying to camouflage myself, sporting a shiny forest green or polished silver "speedball marker" and mowed down seasoned scenario veterans because they often don't know what to do when you're snap-shooting, gunfighting like you train hard (because I did), running, jumping, sliding into bunkers and generally making city fights a living hell for them (and also sneaking and crawling through the brush with far less to snag on bushes).
Again, just an opinion from a guy who started playing back in the first half of the 90's.

I don't slide. I'm defensive. I go to the outskirts and move in to the center. I just run or walk or roll.
You don't know what you're missing. Start off with simple gunfighting drills (snap-shooting with the one-ball check-in rule, dodging paint, etc.). When a scenario player (or whole team is better) embraces drills and skills that you normally only see on an airball field, it can totally change the event.

Hooters, the restaurant. Haven't tried it but what's the BIG deal about it?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
ummmm well the hooters of course! the chicken is ok though the three mile island sauce is the best to me
Dude, it's trash. 10 years ago it was a bigger deal. Terrible food and lame outfits. There are crazier places, like the Tilted Kilt. But that might not be as widespread as Hooter's. Either way, it's usually a bunch of old horn dogs that can't even get it up going to get drunk and stare are scantily clad women.
I'd throw down the 'real men don't' card, but it might get ugly.

The thing is, people that I know go to Hooters for a few things:
1. The wings.
2. Sports.
3. "Sports"
4. Staring at scantily clad women.
5. Hitting on waitresses.
All of which can be easily done/obtained elsewhere.

A gentleman never reveal his secrets. Or his partner(s) intimate secrets either.
I currently have a pair of Nike Jordan shoes (red and black) and a pair of Converse All-Stars (black and white). Today I got like a whole bunch of jeans from Aeropostale and similar brands and I doubt the Jordans will look good with them, but I don't know about the Converse (any advice on that? ). So if I'm going to get new shoes to fit those type of pants, which should I get?
jeans ? think of terry bogard and use a north star
Thread title is misleading. Shoes are what you wear when you're not playing sports. They are the footwear that potential employers will judge you by. Other men will rate you by the shoe that your feet are clad in. Women will decide whether or not you are worthy of their adoration, or their contempt, by the shoe that you chose to wear on that particular occasion.
Nike is not a shoe. Nor is Converse, They are synthetic footwear for pre-pubescent kids, or sporting apparel for those who are destined for a lifetime of agonising knee pain. They are 'trainers' at best. Anybody wearing such a 'shoe' outside of a sporting arena has the same fashion sense as a man in a Saville Row suit, wearing white socks.
You will not get hired. Your peers will sneer at you. You will not get laid. At best, you will hired as an 'Extra' in any second-rate TV or Movie production as Hoodlum number 13, no doubt attired with a matching pair of baggy jeans with a crotch that hangs somewhere below your ankles.
Real shoes look equally as good with an Armani suit as they do with a pair of Armani jeans. Real shoes make you look like a man. Anything less and you look like a tasteless tosspot that was dressed by his mother.
That is all.

Yeah well I'm a teenager. I'm not trying to impress anybody. I'm not trying to get a job. I don't plan on moving around a lot with those types of shoes and risking getting them dirty and ugly. And I already have "real" shoes. And I really don't think those shoes would fit Aeropostale, Hollister, or Ecko apparel. Definitely not Ecko. I know how to dress properly for different occasions. I just don't want to spend too much time looking at "shoes" that I won't get or don't like. And the only reason I'm looking for shoes is because it's the only thing I can ask for, since my dad keeps asking me what I want for a present. I would gladly ask for nothing, but then I don't want to sound like an asshole to him.

You can still poke someone in the eye with a plastic pen. Doesn't need to be a metal one:silly:
Tactical means it looks vaguely militaristic and is a surefire buzzword for selling anything at all to the wannabe soldiers out there..

I wouldn't say Florida is picky. In fact the state is pretty easy going on firearms and other weapons compared to many states. The TSA is a federal organization anyway so it doesn't really have anything to do with the state.
I don't consider it a weapon but many of these tac pens have glass breakers and DNA catchers. They're also relatively sharp and heavy... maybe that's why its considered a weapon.
Anyway. S&W makes pretty good tac gear. I might have to pick this specific one up. Thanks for posting.

This bag would be absolutely perfect for that scenario. :good:
I've been following this thread as I would like something similar for my Nexus 7. I thought it was nice but perhaps too big being designed for a 10".
After looking around I decided to try this one i found on Amazon. It is the Rothco Brown Canvas Small Travel Portfolio Shoulder Bag for 15.49 (Prime)
I like that Rothco one.. I just bought a plaid harajuku lovers bag similar to the one the OP has (I'm a woman) to use as a purse/Nexus 7 bag, but it's made for ipads so it will be big, like you said. I like that the Rothco one is small, wish there were different colors though. I like all the pockets and organization of it

I don't post much but i had to post this. If you have a nexus 4 get a case ASAP. I have had many phones before this and i have never seen a phone crack so easily. I have Thrown my vibrant and nexus s ( not new of course) and they never shattered. This thing fell out of my pocket onto the floor while sitting at my desk. I measured the distance at approx. 2.5 feet. It looks like i flung it off a cliff. Gorilla glass my ass. I could understand if it cracked but this thing had chunks of glass coming off of it some of it splintered into my thumb.
