| Airsoft Article |
irsoft is a modern combat sport or recreational hobby in which participants eliminate opponents by hitting each other with spherical airsoft pellets, launched from airsoft guns. Participants typically employ the use of varying types of weapons designed as replicas of real firearms, tactical gear, and accessories used by modern military and police organizations.
Airsoft has its roots in late-1970s Japan where firearms were difficult or impossible to obtain due to local laws and people sought a legal alternative to owning actual firearms. The vast majority of airsoft guns, accessories, and after market upgrade parts are also manufactured in East Asian regions such as Japan, China, Hong Kong and Taiwan.[1] Many of these Chinese guns are dominating the airsoft market. Companies like G&G, Classic Army, ICS, and Tokyo Marui have spread their name quickly with their cheaper and affordable prices.
There is also a growing interest in airsoft in North America and Europe.
