Although I do agree with you on ACM lights being more worry free and "good enough" for airsoft, both of my Surefires are waterproof and have taken MUCH more abuse than any of my "China" lights could take. (For Cobalt Caliber - Both of my RS lights are about half as bright as my ACM ones)
Plus, figure $60-100~ for a decent China light, $50~ more will get you a used older gen. Surefire light.
But back on topic, OP get yourself mags and a rig/batteries first. THEN the toys...there's always time for more gadgets later.
