FRS/GMRS are the typical small (and weak) radios yo ufind at Walmart, Radio Shack/The Source, Future Shop, etc. Can generally buy them in pairs. Work fine as a starter radio, but if you are gonna spend $40-50 on a set, that's half the cost of a radio like I posted, which is the best thing to start with. FRS are generally 1W, 14 channels, meaning not much range at all if in brush, FRS/GMRS typically are 2W and 22 channels, bit better but not perfect for airsoft, the 4-5W UHF radios are the best ones for the price (if you get one under $100, more expensive is better but largely similar performance............ you want to hear people and have them hear you, flat out only thing yo ucan expect from a good radio.)
Just have to program in the transmit/receive FRS/GMRS frequencies when you get it, isn't too bad a job to do once you get the hang of it, even if 22 channels. After that there will be extra channels you can program in custom channels if you want a secure channel for use with your team/guys you play with if they use one.
