What are Airsoft Guns?
Airsoft guns or
Automatic Electric Guns (AEGs) are 1/1-scale
replicas of actual assault rifles and sub-machine
guns that employ an electric motor to
pneumatically fire a 6mm, resin BB in semi and
fully automatic modes. Offering both reliability
and stunning accuracy, in addition to incomparable
realism, airsoft guns are sought the world over by
survival gamers, firearms training instructors,
class III- weapons enthusiasts, and motion-picture
studios.
Are airsoft guns legal to own
and operate?
Airsoft guns are legal to own in most states.
One should always review all local and state
laws/ordinances regarding BB guns, replica guns,
and paintball guns before making a purchase.
What is
"Hop-Up?"
Hop-Up is a standard feature on all of
our AEGs. The Hop-Up system employs an adjustable
detent that partially drops down in front of the
projectile in the gun’s chamber. When the gun is
fired, the BB brushes past the detent, which puts
a backspin on the BB to counteract the
projectile’s rate of descent. This feature allows
the shooter to fully control the BB’s trajectory.
One can adjust the Hop-Up to cause the BB to drop
sharply, fly perfectly straight or "hop up" and
extend its effective range.
About how far will an airsoft
gun shoot?
Airsoft guns are capable of attaining a
maximum-effective range of 100 yards depending on
whether or not the gun has been upgraded. Stock,
"out-of-the-box" guns will shoot accurately up to
50 yards give or take.
Are airsoft guns accurate?
Airsoft guns are remarkably accurate for
smooth-bore guns. At 50 yards, you will be able to
keep your shots within a 6-8" group. Of course
this also depends greatly on the specific gun.
What are airsoft guns made of?
Most AEGs are composites of steel parts
integrated with molded, high-impact ABS resin.
Metal parts include: barrels, magazines, front and
rear sights, stock rails, internal mechbox, etc.
The receivers are generally ABS resin which is the
same durable polymer that Glock uses on its
handguns.
What can
I expect out of an upgraded airsoft gun?
Upgrading an airsoft gun involves
replacing the stock spring, motor, gears, bushings and
cylinder/piston assembly with hi-performance
replacements that are capable of dramatically
increasing the gun’s performance. Upgraded springs
are designated by an increased percentage rating
that begins at 120% (i.e. 20% stronger than a
stock spring) and runs all the way up to 200%.
These springs, when used in conjunction with a
reinforced mechbox and a high performance motor,
increase the gun’s fps to 450 and extend the
maximum effective range. The increased
durability offered by upgraded parts can also
extend the lifespan of an AEG.
How old do you have to be in
order to purchase an airsoft gun?
YOU MUST BE AT LEAST 18 YEARS OF AGE TO
PURCHASE AN AIRSOFT GUN. Team Airsoft assumes "NO
LIABILITY" arising from the purchase of any
products to those who do otherwise. In other
