This is just a kinda general question.
Do you have any words of wisdom on storing your gear. It seems like mine is getting a little more unweildy as time passing and the collection increases. I hate the time after a game when I have to try to get all my stuff back together and make it not a big pile of gearbage topped by my guns:) So any tips would be appreciated.
This may seem off topic, if I'm just being an idiot feel free to dump the thread but I'm really curious for some advice cause I'm sure that people like hado would get yelled at by the wifey for leaving a pile of gear out:) So any ideas well inovative ones beyond hanging them up would be appreciated.

I put all my stuff in a locker I have. I put all my tools in a .50 caliberammo box, then all my ammo in another box.

Actually right now there's a pile of gearbage in our bedroom waist high. Really! Normally It all has its place in the closet. The camouflage collection and vests all hung up nicely along with the holsters and camelback. But....I was bored the other day so I decided to try a few things on with the TT MAV and well....thus the pile of gearbage was born. I don't really have any tips on how to store things, guess the only thing I can recommend is to keep your goggles safe. Hado Jr has been known to run around the house sporting my kevlar helmet and Paulson tactical goggles. Yar!

Well I had a game yesterday well two technically. One with paintball and one with just airsoft. And I have a pile of stuff on the front porch from gear to guns. Got like 5 paintball guns, then my airsoft stuff, and on top of that my junk tec gear and my better stuff. Since when I play paintball I put on crappy gear. And yeah just about every weekend and sometimes a couple times in the week, I get a pile like that going:) It's starting to annoy me:)

I've got two gear bags which I store my crapola in. One for outdoors, and one for my CQB equipment. I'll typically put my duty belt/holster, ammo bag, and helmet on the top, in the bags. It makes it that much easier to switch between one and the other.
The only stuff that doesn't go in, are season specific pieces of gear, and my "specialty" gear, which I'll usually hang up in my closet or basement.

i usually use two bags to carry my gear. one carries my LBV, cammies, helmet, gloves, goggles, boots, etc.
second carries pistol case, gas, BBs, magazines, and anything else i'd need.
typically, i'll head to the skirmish in jeans, and change quickly while there. Bigmack has no shame. ;D

My wife recently (as in a few hours ago recently) got on my ass about my gearbage pile. I had all of my junk out because I was in the process of making a 3-point harness for my SR-16 (which came out very nicely, I might add), then I bought some new stuff at the gun show yesterday...
You know how it is.
Anyway, when it's all put away, my fatigues and stuff hang up in the closet just like my other clothes, guns go in cases, and I have a duffel bag for all of my other gear. It makes it easy to get ready for games, because I just grab the bag and the gun case, and head out the door. I don't currently have multiple sets of gear (i.e. outdoor and SWAT), but eventually I'll do like Motown and separate it by bag. Keeps things easy.

Well I organised some tonight, put some nails in the wall to hang my guns from(real and airsoft) and put up a rack for hangars since my vests seem to hang pretty well, but I do appreciate the suggestions:) The problem I have is I'm constantly freaking playing the last few weeks, so everytime I get my gear out I hate to put it away just to take it out the next day:) I need a maid that handles guns kinda like in tomb raider:)

The first day i used my camo wasnt for airsoft, but it ended up in a big heap in my room. I have a drawstring bag i keep it all it, the rest of my gear is strewn across my room, it doesnt really matter where it is, cuz there isnt much of it...

an old redz paintball bag... pretty big and i might as well use it for something now that i've retired by autococker. It fits: my sd6, m4, charger, mags, tools, elbow and knee pads, balaclava, gloves, mask, bbs, accessories... basically everything but my lbv and bdus. I highly recommend this case.
