eva05 - Optactical has given you excellent advice. Do not waste money on equipment you don't have a legitimate long-term use for. Borrow your buddy's gear (if it can be adjusted to fit properly) and use the snot out of it. If it breaks and it was your fault - replace the broken stuff and thank him for saving you hundreds of dollars on equipment you're likely to never use again. If you do want to get your own kit later, think of it as a test drive. Most of us got our "test drives" at government expense which significantly reduces the cost of figuring out what really works (and even that varies depending on circumstances). The good stuff is relatively expensive (you get what you pay for) which is why hobbyists (AirSoft/paintball/etc.) purchase less expensive knockoffs of the pro level gear. FWIW - Peregrino
