What is Airsoft?


Airsoft is the product of Japanese expert engineering and a strong desire for realistic firearms replicas. Airsoft models are 1/1 scale replicas of real-steel firearms. Unlike traditional BB guns, Airsoft guns fire a 6mm plastic projectile at speeds of up to 300 feet per second (FPS). Guns are available in three distinct types: spring operated gas operated and electric, or battery-operated.

Spring operated Airsoft guns require the user to cock the slide or bolt for each shot.

Gas operated Airsoft models use a propellant similar to CO2 known as GREEN GAS (HFC134a or HFC22 combined with a silicone lubricant). These models are semi-automatic and require the user to merely pull the trigger to expel each round. Gas guns often feature blow back action resulting the in the highly realistic cycling of the slide, very similar to the operation of a real firearm.

Battery powered Airsoft guns use a gear and piston system to expel each round. Electric models are semi- or fully automatic.

Airsoft is rapidly growing in popularity among paintball players and war gamers. Make no mistake - Airsoft is THE most accurate and realistic war gaming technology on the market today. It is for this reason that Airsoft is being adopted by tactical teams and law enforcement groups around the world for its superior delivery of force-on-force training.
