Themed Airsoft

[Dobe]

Black ops kinda snuck the bug in, but I've recently become rather interested in Themed Airsoft, especially Vietnam. Besides the fact of having to purchase the era weaponary, which I think is the easy part, I'm having troubles finding a website that sells the era clothing, webbing, and other equipment that isn't in the UK. Does anyone know of a good website that sells older era gear?(such as WWII, Korea, Vietnam)

Try army surplus stores. You can find all sorts of random stuff (much of it authentic too!).

Lastly, Ebay, if you use it, is a great resource for period/era VN gear as well...just do a search for "Vietnam Militaria" and you should come up with tons of stuff. Deals are there for those who know what they are looking for and looking at.

Just a few to get your started, there's much more out there. Good luck and enjoy!
