What is Airsoft? Airsoft is a sport above all that requires safety, rules, and governing as do all sports. Airsoft is also a very mature sport and knowledge of common sense and respect is required. Airsoft gives people the ability to own a shooting version of their dream gun. Due to the law and the cost, people cannot always own their dream gun, and Airsoft provides you with a realistic replica, and on top of that allows you to be able to shoot that replica. Airsoft guns are realistic replicas of real firearms. They look and operate almost exactly like the real thing. Due to their relatively cheap price tags and precise realism, movie studios often use Airsoft guns for its production work. They simply digitally alter the images to incorporate the muzzle flash, sound and effects to mimic the real firearms. Airsoft is also used by some Police Departments as a training tool. Why Play Airsoft? The ability to own and play with these “dream guns” is in and of itself appealing enough to enthusiasts. The added advantage of being able to take these guns out to a local legal playing field and “skimmish” your best friends with it in friendly competition is as good as it gets. Where Can I Play Airsoft? There are two major categories of playing fields, one being an Airsoft field or open land.
Fortunately, every airsoft players is naturally competitive to some extent. It’s the sports natural nature. But let us compare airsoft to E-Sport for a moment.
Competitions gave rise to highly skilled and knowledgeable players, and games such as League of Legends holds a high standard for the title “Pro” or “All-Star.” But what does airsoft do to measure a player capability? Sadly, theres nothing at the moment.
GearBox
When it comes to your gearbox, check for any issues with the wiring, springs, and widgets. Any deficiencies will lead to your BBs coming out at random FPS and grouping
It is worthy to note that every legendary airsoft gun out there has had most parts within its gearbox upgraded. The better designed your gearbox is, the better your BBs grouping and shots consistency will be
Also, don’t buy a new gearbox unless your current one is damaged. Every out of the box gearbox is flawed in huge ways. Only you can make the ideal gearbox for your gun and in ways that is cheapest
The sad part is unlike any other part of your gun, troubleshooting and improving your gearbox is the most complicated process. We strongly advise that you consult with your local tech before attempting any modification and purchasing parts on your own. More at TheAirsoftSport.
Strip Your Gun of BBs and Put It on Safety
When the airsoft game is over, everyone will be heading out of the field to reload/pack up. At this point, everyone’s face protection will be off, and a lot of possibilities for your airsoft gun to accidentally hurt someone
A direct shot into someone’s eyes at 150FPS can render them blind PERMANENTLY. The last thing you want is someone filing a lawsuit against you. You can break an arm and a leg financially going through all that process
For your sake and everyone else, remove your magazine and fire a couple of shots to empty the loaded BBs. Put your gun on safety then head out. The same applies even when you’re at home.
