If you want to get started with Airsoft but CBA figuring out what you need by yourself, the New Player Bundle is ideal for you!

This bundle includes the Specna Arms SA-F05-RL FLEX™ Gen.2 AEG, one of our most popular M4 platforms known for its great performance-to-price ratio, two 7.4V LiPo Batteries and Charger, two extra Mid-Cap Magazines, a Speed Loader, and a 1KG Bag of BBs to get you up and running.

The only thing we have left out is eye/face protection as this is often a case of personal preference. We recommend the Empire VFORCE™ Armor Full Face Mask if you want an affordable full-face mask, otherwise, you can check out our eye protection and choose your favourite by clicking here!

If you're gearing up to hit the field, this bundle will save you a few quid! We paired DYE's superb SE Full Face Mask with Defender II Tactical Gloves from Delta Armory, keeping the important parts protected so you can stay aggressive in-game. 

Being capable of withstanding paintball projectiles at a far higher muzzle energy than any Airsoft gun, your face has never been safer behind the DYE SE Full Face Mask. Delta's Defender II Gloves are a more aggressive take on its original Tactical gloves, boasting a reinforced Keprotec® knuckle ideally suited to crawling through thorns and BBs, with a soft neoprene backing which takes the sting out of those close-range knuckle shots. 

If you're new to the sport and about to hit the field but need the bare essentials, the New Player Protection Pack has you covered!
