Packing for MilSim West
Marauder:
Either in the box you bought it in, a gun-bag, rifle sock.Options are limitless. Just pack it safely and in a way that wouldn't make a cop nervous.
Gimpalong:
Huge necro, but figured this might be useful for other folks in the future.
Hey @Mosin,
I'm headed to Ambient Light next month and figured I'd pack as if it was an MSW event. Below I've pasted my packing list for my Osprey Kestrel pack. This is pretty much my basic back-country stuff plus a few airsoft specific items.
I know you've been to (quite) a few more MSW events by this point. Care to take a look and let me know what I need to add/subtract?

Mosin:
I made a list after I think my 3rd MSW game with what is kosher and needed for a 40 hour. For what it's worth, Caspian Gap will be my 6th event with MSW.

The only stand out I don't see with your kit list is an external battery source. I'm not sure how much you plan on being on your cell phone, but an external battery is great to plug into your phone before you head out on mission.
Also not sure what your NVG game is, but if you're doing a no shit MSW, and have the cash to source it, I'd get Gen 3 nods. Lastly a red or green laser to mark targets for hits, and a super bright light at night is good too. A strong portable one at a fixed hard point defensive position is absolutely money if you suspect Charlie is in the wire.
Kit list looks good though man.
