I've just got the gun, it's not even close to finished yet, and I'm easily up over $800 on it. I'm just going to start blocking out all thought of total cost about now.

Lets see..
- $450 for MP5 PTW - $375 for Deagle - ~$150-200 for battery and charger - ~$50 for extra mags - $120 for BDU and hat - $150 for boots - $50 for vest - $20 gloves - ~$60-80 for mask So that's $1425 for a conservative estimate for when I just started out . I'm too afraid to calculate how much money I've spent now.

OP, i would suggest BB Bastards instead of TM, they are the best of the best, and you support a Canadian retailer. :lol: |

I can not remember exactly or even ballpark how much I spent on gear alone but I have owned
-3 vests + 2 chest rigs -2 sets knee guards + 1 pair elbow guards -1 pair gloves -1 pair boots -2 BDUs -2 holsters -3 goggles, 1 shooting glass, 1 full face mask -a crap load of pouches -2 gun bags -1 helmet -3 slings Yet I am still planning on another BDU and a SERPA holster. Probably in the $1200 mark.

I wont even mention how much ive put into this sport. I highly advise you other guys keep your mouth shut about your investments... Unless you like getting your name put up on a shopping list for thieves.
This isnt an E-Peen contest after all.
