Hi I was wondering about spotters in airsoft. I know what a real steel spotter should do, but I have had trouble finding what a spotter should do (and carry) in airsoft, generally it is divided in my on-line searches to two distinct groups.
1) the spotter caries a huge x20 spotting scope, range finder, ghillie, and basically does the full range of tasks a real steel spotter would do,
2) the spotter provides full auto fire to protect the sniper in the MED (or if the sniper exposes themselves)
i would guess for th most part the airsoft spotter sits somewhere between the two groups, but i would like the benefit of your wisdom!
also what gear does you spotter carry? is a full x20 or more spotting scope really needed? (and easy to use while wearing goggles?) or is a monocular of about x10 OK for airsoft? should a spotter have a range finder?
