Airsoft Guns and Accessories

It depends on the weight and speed of the bb, measured in FPS (feet per second). Low end spring guns may feel like a small pinch <300 fps. Medium grade AEG's will feel like a larger pinch, and may welt if you shoot up close 300-450 fps. High powered spring rifles will usually welt and are not allowed to be shot upclose 500+ fps.

Airsoft guns are perfectly safe if used properly. Safe use of airsoft guns requires using at least eye protection. Full face protection is recommended.

Airsoft target practice does not require full face protection. Some form of eye protection is still recommended to guard against ricochets. Using targets that trap BBs or sticky targets that are often included with the gun decreases the likelihood of ricochet.

Eye protection should be in the form of goggles or masks that fit without leaving gaps. Paintball masks work well, but there is also airsoft-specific equipment on the market now. A layer of fabric is enough to stop an airsoft BB, so goggles and a balaclava can work as well. Normal clothing is also enough to protect skin.

Fabric gloves are also recommended. A BB striking a bare knuckle will hurt. In addition to safety equipment game rules usually prohibit shooting at close ranges, substituting a tap with a hand that counts as a "knife kill". Some players actually use soft rubber training knives for this.

Shooting an airsoft gun at an unprotected person is not safe. Some of the higher-powered guns at close range can chip a tooth or break skin. An airsoft BB fired at an unprotected eye, even from a low-powered spring gun, can cause serious damage, just like any other projectile. A shot to an unprotected eye from a high-powered gun at point blank range is potentially lethal. However, so is sticking a pencil in the eye.

An important safety consideration is the fact that airsoft guns can be very realistic and scare people who are not aware of them. Keep the orange tips attached to make them look less like a real gun. Do not point the guns at people not involved in your game. If the police show up keep your hands visible and away from the gun. Better yet, put it down and take a couple of steps back.

As with most other things in life, do not do obviously stupid things and you will be OK.

M4's use a Magazine to feed the bb's into the weapon.

A clip is a holder of ammo that is not spring fed, a magazine is.

so what "clip" are you referring to for what model m4 & who makes it?

S&W 41 the term pistol actually refers to an autoloader but i assume you mean any handgun - i have probably shot more off the shelf handguns and more ammo than most people and have found for uncustomised guns the very best target handgun is the TC contender single shot with interchangeable barrels and calibers - the barrels come in 14 and 10 inch length and can be easily topped with any type sighting system without any custom work at all best of all one TC contender can be used with multiple calibers - i have 22 LR and 22 magnum for target and small game, 44 magnum for hunting big game, 223 for long range target and to shoot the same round as my AR-15, and a custom made 360 schafer magnum that shoots a 30 caliber in a necked down 444 case and is as powerful as you can "control" in a handgun - all this from one handgun

Answer 3: Best target pistol for what purpose? If you mean for formal bullseye competition, you need either an autopistol or a revolver, something able to fire a minimum of five shots. Autopistols are almost universal amongst serious target shooters these days, although in the old days they tended to use revolvers such as the Smith and Wesson "K-22," still available today more or less as the Model 617. I've shot revolvers in competition myself, and it's a bit embarrassing because everyone else has to wait for you in loading or unloading, but there's nothing in the rules that says you can't. In autopistols you can pay as much as you want. Some of the Hammerli models, from Switzerland, are absolutely excellent and breathtakingly costly. The Smith and Wesson Model 41 that was mentioned first is excellent; I believe it has outlived two or three replacements now. It's a thousand-dollar gun. I haven't shot a Hammerli Trailside, but I've read that it's an excellent beginner's piece for about $400. And I would be remiss not to mention the Ruger .22 target pistols. They're very common as a shooter's first target pistol, if you get one of the "target" versions and not the cheaper "standard." They're long-lasting, reliable, and are competitive enough that people have won major competitions shooting them-- with modifications, of course.

"Modifications" should go without saying, because if you ever do get up to the high levels of target competition whatever you shoot will probably be customized and modified to the max. I don't think this is strictly necessary. Most of these target pistols will shoot better than any of us can, once you find the brand of ammo they like. But modifying a competition gun seems to be a "bug" that nobody can resist. It increases the shooter's confidence, I suppose, and confidence is a big part of shooting well.

Airsoft guns are generally not considered firearms in most jurisdictions. While they resemble real firearms in appearance, they typically function using compressed air or gas to propel non-lethal plastic pellets. The distinction between airsoft guns and firearms is primarily based on the fact that airsoft guns are designed for recreational purposes and are not intended to cause significant harm or be used as weapons. However, it's important to note that the classification of airsoft guns can vary by jurisdiction, and some regions may have specific laws or regulations regarding their possession, use, or transportation. It's advisable to familiarize oneself with the local laws and regulations regarding airsoft guns in a particular area.

depending on what charger you use it could be from 4hrs with a wall charger to 10 minutes on a smart charger

If you go to Airsplat.com, you can find local fields, forums and teams in your area on their Airsoft Information tab. Here is the link to help you out:

Well, if you live near an air soft store I'm sure they have it there but other than that you will have to order it online its much more expensive than propane and propane is basically the same as green gas but green gas has silicon oil already in it so you should purchase a propane adapter from this site: (See the link Below) and a coupon code for 10% off is GITV in the long run propane will save you a bunch of money. Besides you can find mini propane tanks at any camping store

DO NOT REMOVE YOUR ORANGE TIP FROM AN AIRSOFT GUN! It is illegal and you can and will be arrested. It is counted as a felony. Another reason is because it now looks like a real weapon, and if police mistake it for one, they have authority to take you out...and then your dead. I don't think you'd want that.

The cost of airsoft guns varies greatly. It all depends on your budget and what kind of quality you are looking for. If you want to, you could buy a very low quality plastic spring pistol on Ebay.com that shoots about 20ft. These will cost a few dollars. However, airsoft guns can cost anywhere from a couple dollars to $3,500. Guns at this high price range are exclusive, like the echo 1 minigun. However there is everything in between. For $80-$150 you can get very good airsoft guns that are decent quality.

Some good sites:

airsoftgi.com

evike.com

airsoftmegastore.com (<--- good guns at a lower price)

The best place to sell airsoft guns is on eBay. Believe me, everyone who wants an airsoft gun, the first place they look is eBay. Oh ya, if your selling it brand new put it on eBay express. Either way, somebody will buy it if its not too expensive or a piece of crap.

Usually, It Would Take 3-5 Buisness Days.

If a military is not using simunitions, they use paintball. The negative feedback of getting hit and it showing along with the ability to use powder or water rounds make it a much better option than airsoft.

It depends on the battery make and type. Try googleing the battery manufactorer and looking at their products. When you find it look through its details

I've asked my friend, a lecture in electronics engineering, he said that overcharging is the main cause that leads a battery to failure (neither it's NiMh, NiCd, or LiPo) or shorten its life, not the "memory effect" itself. Overcharging can cause crystal to be built in the battery cell/cells. The more we overcharging it (longer the time or do it several times) the more the cell/cells will be broken. If you only overcharged it once, its still be ok. If you have LiPo battery, I suggest you yo buy a balancer to be use with your charger. It will prolong battery service. There are several way to repair broken battery. I've read that we can short-circuiting Ni-Cd battery in order to get it back to work, but the chance is only 50%. So it's definitely NOT a choice. The latest news I heard is we can use a smart charger-balancer that can "fix" broken cells in LiPo battery.

Free For all is a fun game, but VIP is a better one. VIP is when one person has no gun or a pistol, that person is the VIP. Then one person is on their team with any type of gun, and must guard the VIP with their "life". They are know as the Guard. Then the third person is trying to kill the VIP. In order to be safe, you must kill the enemy, or reach the safe point. You can decide where the safe point is

Rules:

- If VIP is shot, you lose and the enemy wins.

- If enemy shot, you win.

- If Reached safe point, you win.

- If guard is shot down, continue game but VIP is vulnerable.

Hope this helps,

Justin

they shoot fairly fast, but they are not very realiable.

Airsoft guns are legal in all states you might want to go to your local police office to get laws and clearence to use them. You have to be 18 or older to order one yourself but that really applies for everything you by. In the united states it has to have an orange tip. If your gun does not have one the retailor has to paint it onn by law

you do not need a permit for a airsoft pistol/rifle because i just bought one a couple of months ago and all they needed was my ID showing that i was over 18, if your not then you need someone to buy it for you that's over 18 and give it to you, there is no legal age to own an airsoft gun just one to buy one. Also you can not bring them out into the public aka walking down the street or in a mall but at your house or your property its ok.

Yes they are me and a friend were arrested a while ago and got charged with "Minor in possession of an air gun"

the judge ruled that air soft guns are not airguns or bb guns so there is nothing illegal about us having them or using them

this was in a suburb of Boston in Norfolk County at the dedham district court house

If I'm not mistaken, just as long as the gun has an orange tip it should be legal in California. You can email or call Airsplat.com to make sure and look up some stuff while you're there. They have some of the best items at the cheapest prices. Check them out.

There are some pistols that are meant to use both (like the KJW Xcelerator) and some gas guns that can be modded to use CO2 (this usually requires reinforcement of all parts involved in the gas system and sometimes even the slide because of the higher power of CO2), but most gas guns can't handle it. I would recommend buying a gun that comes able to do both out of the box, because modding one is a pain, but it is nice to be able to use either one (use a gas mag at close range and switch to CO2 if you are shooting further).

Yes, airsoft shells are refillable, being made of hard plastic and a hole to insert bb's in.
