Sometime ago who would have imagined to having been able to “fight it out” with friends using exact models of MP44s, M1 Garands, MG42s, MP40s, Thompsons, etc. that not only function almost identically to their historic counterparts but fire BBs and blank-like plug fire cartridges? That day has now come true.
2. Impression
The critical element in recreating the World War II soldiers and the battles they fought is authentic uniform, equipment and weapon. During the conflict 1939-1945 each sides equipment and weaponry changed a great deal and the more war progressed, the more improvised and ad-hoc the individual soldiers appearance became.
It is up to each hobbyist to research carefully the unit and the time era he or she wishes to recreate. Units considered to be elite, such as for example US Army 101st Airborne or Waffen-SS Leibstandarde, tend to be favored among newcomers. On other hand since many lack regular group to participate with it can be wise to keep your initial impression as generic as possible to leave your options open. For example having only MP44 (Sturmgewehr 44) assault rifle as your weapon will limit your participation to events that portray time era from 1944 to 1945.
