Thanks definitely appreciate that. I totally get the bang for buck improvement of pro level gear. My ps2 leg pads are built way better than my old mid level pads ever were. I'll keep on the lookout for deals on c/a's. Also trying hard to fight the urge to gear whore, because once i go down that route there's no turning back.
At my level if I know a guy can pepper it I'll just get out of the way
