Does it hurt to get shot by an airsoft gun ?
I enjoy your work , especially the inventions…and i was wondering if I could perhaps work for you . If there is a possibility that you could use my skills and experiences, please advise

One popular product that seems to have no end in it’s popularity is hobbytron airsoft guns. These seem to be the latest rage. If you haven’t gotten some of these toys yet, you should. If you do have some of these toys, then I’ve got a couple of great ideas for some games that you can play with your friends. As long as you use safety precautions, especially eye and face protection, you’ll be good to go, and you’ll likely have the time of your life.

One game that my buddy recently made up is called “prison break,” after the popular TV show. Depending on the size of your group, you choose two, three, or four guys who will pretend to be the escaped convicts. They are only allowed to carry handguns, with ten BBs each. This, of course, is what would happen in a real life situation. The rest of you, pretending to be the wardens and the posse, can have rifles and shotguns. Of course, it goes without saying that this game requires full protective gear at all times.

You first need to find a large, open area, that is partially protected by trees, shrubs, or hills. If possible, try playing this on an official airsoft field, so you won’t run the risk of involving other people that don’t know what’s going on. You may need to have a couple people stand guard to make sure kids or pets don’t wander into your playing field. You pick a spot off in the distance as the safe zone. If the escapees get there before you catch them, they win. If you catch them before they get there, then you win. This is particularly fun if the safe zone is a good deal of distance away, and there are plenty of different ways to get there.

Another game to play is a variation of this, called cops and robbers. You’ll need full permission from the homeowner for this game, whether it be your parents, or whoever. You send one guy into the house, who is the designated bad guy. He has about a three minute head start. In the house are hidden items he or she must retrieve, and then escape without being caught. Any exit is fine. If they escape, then they win, if they don’t, you win.

One more game to play is a variation of the old target practice. You simply set up some targets, and then come up with different ways to get points. This can be particularly fun if you have some automatic weapons, like the AK 47 replica that shoots several BBs per second. Simply set up a bunch of cans and see who can shoot them all down in the smallest amount of time. Or take your favorite sniper rifle, and see who can hit a target far away in the least amount of shots. There are plenty of variations on this particular game.

These are but a few of the many games you can play with these wonderful toys. I’m sure you can think of many more, and once you play them, the sky’s the limit. You are only constrained by your imagination. So get out there, have some fun, and be safe. If you think of any more good games, come back and tell us about them so we can have some fun as well.

Where is the most painful place to get hit by a paintball?

It’s a question somebody brings up pretty much every time I go paintballing, I’m used to hearing the different approaches people at when I ask them, where do you think is the worst place to get hit by a paintball? I mean paintballs can legally be shot at around 200 miles per hour! So that is pretty fast, thankfully most sites have a limit, which is much, much lower.

If you’ve been using basic spring airsoft guns for a while and been bitten by the bug, you’re probably keen to get started on some of the more sophisticated options in the arsenal. These include advanced spring models, and electric and gas guns in pistol, rifle and automatic weapon formats.

Spring airsoft guns are the most basic but you can get some sophisticated models. Other than a range of handguns, you can get a wide array of spring airsoft rifles such as the Smith & Wesson M3000. However, if you’re looking for a gun with automatic function, you’ll need to find another type, either electric of gas.

Electric airsoft guns are the most popular type nowadays and offer some great advantages over springers. The most important is that they’re automatic. Also known as AEG (Automatic Electric Gun), these guns are worked by an electric motor powered by a rechargeable battery. Some modes have high capacity magazines with a capacity of 100s of pellets which make them perfect for an environment where continuous shooting may be required such as an airsoft game. Say goodbye to cocking your weapon before each shot.;with an electric gun you can fire as fast as your fingers can pull the trigger.

You can get different types of AEGs ranging from pistols to rapid fire machine guns and assault rifles. If you’re on a budget you could look at LPEGs (low powered/priced electric guns). Of course, these cheap airsoft guns are not as good as AEGs. For one thing, the gearboxes are made out of plastic instead of metal.

Gas airsoft guns offer automatic fire, too, or they can be semi-automatic. A number of gases are used including propane, nitrogen and carbon dioxide. One advantage of gas guns is that they’re lighter and more compact than the electric item. However, their performance is influenced by the temperature; owing to the cooling effect of the gas, they work better in warm climates.

So much for the mechanisms, now let’s look at the types of gun available. The most basic types are handguns which include pistols and revolvers.

Rifles are available in a range of styles. Sniper rifles are popular owing to their exposure in the media, especially in movies such as Shooter. Most are bolt action though semi-automatic models are available. When it comes to rifles, the length of the gun is an important factor in the accuracy of the firearm.

Carbines are basically shortened versions of an existing rifle, assault or otherwise. They’re light and portable and perfect for indoor use. Examples of carbines are the M4 and XM177, Socom16, and the AK74SU.

Assault Rifles can fire automatically, either in Burst or Full-auto, or both. Examples are the M16 family and Kalashnikovs.

Shotguns are available in both spring and gas form. Most fire a single BB at a time though there are exceptions. An example is the Smith & Wesson M3000 spring airsoft shotgun.

Submachine Guns (SMGs) are good for indoor environments where maneuverability is more important than firepower and range. SMGs come with both full and semi-auto types.

One of the great things about airsofts is that you can get replicas of famous firearms, both modern and historical. You can choose from a single shot pistol that’s a full blown exact replica of a modern military firearm, a shotgun with real pump action, a perfect replica of a hunting rifle, or a six shooter from the Wild West of old.

If you looking for a pastime that combines excitement, skill and a sense of adventure, then airsoft guns may well be for you. As one of the country’s fastest growing recreational sports, airsoft guns give you all the excitement of shooting a real gun without the expense, fuss or danger. You can use them for everything from target practice to war games. You have a wide range of airsoft guns to choose from such as the spring airsoft gun and the electric airsoft gun along with airsoft rifles. Here’s your guide this exciting activity.

First, let’s look at exactly what airsoft guns are. Airsoft guns are models of actual firearms but fire plastic bullets or pellets (BBs) which are some 6-8 millimeters in circumference. They’re made from plastic or metal or a combination of both. The great thing about these items is that they give you the experience of shooting real guns without the risk or expense. You can use them for target practice, shooting competitions or recreational shooting just like the real thing by with the confidence that you’re in no danger.

Airsoft guns were originally developed in Japan in the 1980s where there was a passion for guns but strict laws against their ownership. The solution was to develop a spring powered gun that was a replica of an existing weapon. Airsoft guns later became popular in the United States and newer types of greater sophistication have since been developed using gas and electricity for propulsion. Here’s a look at the different types of airsoft gun.

The original spring airsoft guns or ‘springer’ as they’re known to aficionados are still in use and are now the entry level weapons of choice for both handguns and rifles. The springer is a single action weapon that fires a single BB before you need to manually re-cock it before the next shot. One great benefit is that they need no power source such as gas or electricity so they’re cheaper to use and they won’t run out of power.

The second generation of airsoft guns featured gas-powered mechanisms using propane, nitrogen or carbon dioxide. These types can be semi-automatic or fully automatic and they’re lighter and more compact then the electric powered guns. Gas airsoft guns are fine for target practice but not really suitable for games. They also work better in warmer climates.

AEGs (Automatic Electric Guns) are now the most popular airsoft weapons. They use rechargeable high-capacity rechargeable batteries for power. They come in both automatic and semi-automatic models so you can continuously fire without having to pull the slide, bolt, or other mechanism. This makes them more suitable for competition than spring airsoft guns, for example.

Among recent innovations is a Hybrid airsoft. These are highly realistic as they use encased ammunition so a metal casing will be ejected during each shot just like in the movies.

One of the major pleasures of airsoft guns is their realistic appearance. You can get them in a huge range of types. For example, there are shotguns with real pump action as well as replicas of hunting rifles. Some of the most popular models are replicas of military weapons. Nostalgia buffs will be delighted to find models weapons used in the Wild West and on the battlefields of yesteryear, while the more technically minded can acquire items such as sniper rifles used in today’s conflicts around the globe.

If you’ve decided to investigate the world of airsoft guns, here are a few things you should bear in mind.

First, it’s important to remember that airsoft guns are not toys. Though they’re perfectly safe when used responsibly, you need to keep them away from children.

Next, you need to choose the right type for your needs. It’s best to buy a basic type to start to see if they are for you. If you spend some time on target practice and get hooked, then you can upgrade to a more sophisticated model.

To get the best deals, you can visit one of the reputable online vendors of airsoft guns and browse their illustrated catalogues. Choose the model that appeals, place your order, and your item will be delivered by courier. Buying online is safe, simple and economical. Remember you have to be at least 18 years old and that it is not legal to own airsoft guns in New York City (all 5 boroughs) and Michigan.

So if the idea of organizing your own war games appeals to you or you, or you just want some target practice or try your hand on a rifle range, check out airsoft guns for the ultimate in thrills and realism.

There’s a vast range of airsoft handguns and pistols on offer. As with most things in life there are always some favourites that never really change over time. Like Airsoft Sniper Rifles as an example, there’s a certain something about airsoft rifles that their owners simply can’t explain. The dream of owning your own M16, G36 or AK47 is something that some of the other people will never understand. The surprising thing about most airsoft rifles is that they’re actually quite heavy and very well built. They’re designed to be an almost exact copy of the original firearm in every possible way – which in turn gives you an idea of what it would be like to handle the real thing.

The quality and features of your airsoft replica will depend on your budget. There are three basic types of airsoft guns – differences and approx. expenses are listed below:

Spring Airsoft Guns:

Spring powered airsoft guns differ from the other gas powered and electric powered airsoft guns because they are a single shot or spring cocked devices much like a real shotgun or bolt action rifle. The user has to cock the spring by pulling back the slide or bolt before firing each shot. Though they may not be very suitable for close combat competitions, they are widely used for “sniper” and “marksman” functions.

Electric Airsoft Guns (AEG):

The electric airsoft gun, also known as AEG (Airsoft Electric Gun) these are the top of the range when it comes to airsoft guns. Each AEG has a tiny but very powerful motor inside which powers the firing mechanism. There is still a spring inside an AEG but this is controlled by the electronic motor to achieve high rates of fully automatic fire. One of the really neat things about this type of airsoft gun is that it can be loaded with miniature paintballs. A word of warning however – if a paintball breaks inside an AEG it can clog up the entire firing mechanism meaning you’ll have to strip the gun down and clean it.

Gas powered Airsoft Guns:

Gas powered models add one immediate feature – automatic fire. With a gas powered airsoft rifle or pistol you don’t need to cock the gun each time because it has a gas charge built in. These are far more powerful than most spring airsoft guns and slightly more expensive. This extra power comes at an added expense – the gas needs to be refilled. This can be achieved with co2 cartridges or a portable hand pump. For the added expense gas airsoft guns definitely feel more like the “real thing”.

The weight of your airsoft pellets affects the performance of your airsoft gun a lot. Every airsoft player wants their pellets to go long distance and have great accuracy. Although the gun itself is actually the main factor which affects your accuracy, the pellets also play an important role in determining the accuracy.

The most common pellets weight types are 0.12g and 0.20g. 0.12g pellets are often used in low end airsoft guns, for instance, the basic spring and electric handguns. However, most of them do work with the 0.20g ones. 0.12g pellets do not strain the guns’ internal systems as much as the 0.20g ones.

0.20g and 0.25g are best used with higher end airsoft guns. Although 0.12g pellets usually travel at higher velocities than heavier pellets, they also decelerate faster and are more likely to be affected by external environmental factors. On the other hand, weightier BBs have higher stability and accuracy than lighter pellets, but have lower velocity which makes them hard to achieve a significant distance. Airsoft players usually use 0.20g and 0.25g pellets over 0.12g because the latter is believed to be greatly inferior to the formers.

However, you should not use pellets beyond the weight 0.25g in standard airsoft guns although they are suitable for sniper rifles. Usually, a quality sniper rifle pellet weighs about 0.30g. The specifications of an airsoft gun must increase as a pellet gets heavier. The airsoft gun must be of a high quality and may need upgrades to support a 0.30g pellet.

The heaviest pellet of all is 0.88g which has a really low velocity and is made of steel. These pellets are not suitable for airsoft games but if you saw one anywhere, try to avoid yourself from being hit by these pellets at all costs.

Best Airsoft Pistols and Pistol Air Soft

Entering the airsoft gun hobby can be rewarding but is not always easy because of the variety of options you can choose from. Not only do you have to worry about choosing airsoft rifles that are well manufactured but you also need to consider which specific types of guns you want to work with. Maybe you already know whether you want airsoft pistols, http://www.softairpro.com/airsoft-pistols/ or machine guns but learning a bit more about your choices will ensure that you choose the best airsoft guns for your needs and your experience level.

Airsoft Pistol, Shotguns & Handguns, http://www.softairpro.com/

With airsoftguns, you’ll also find some other options. Handguns, such as airsoft pistols, are frequently purchased by beginners because they are a good choice for learning how to properly and accurately handle and fire one of these weapons. They can also be good sidearm weapons meaning they can serve as a backup if you’re playing a match and run out of ammunition. Most of the shot guns are not going to be used in matches but there are some that are capable of firing off multiple rounds quickly but overall these would be better choices for target practice. Most airsoft enthusiasts would suggest pistols over both shotguns and revolvers that rarely perform as well.

Air Soft Rifle Options

Two types of rifles are commonly available in the airsoft arena. Assault rifles are one choice. These are one of the most popular types of guns in the airsoft family, possibly because people love the idea of shooting off an M-16. These weapons are capable of doing auto fire that makes it an ideal choice for a few airsoft matches. Another option is a sniper rifle. These can be great choices if you’re already part of a team and that team wants a competitive advantage. Not everyone enjoys using a sniper rifle but it can make a great secondary choice.

Air soft Pistol, Carbines and SMGs, http://www.softairpro.com/airsoft-guns/

The carbine is an interest choice because it’s basically just a smaller version of standard airsoft rifles, except that it uses the same ammunition as a submachine gun (SMG). Among airsoft players, the SMGs seem to have some advantages. They may not pack the biggest payload or the most power but they can be great choices because they are easy to handle and don’t hamper your movements the way larger automatic weapons, such as the machine gun, might.

Deciding on the Right Weapon

Despite all of the pros and cons, the only person who can really determine the best airsoft guns is you. And that decision should be based on many factors, including your experience level and your intended purpose with the weapon. In some cases, the type of weapon may not matter as much as whether or not you’re choosing an automatic or semi-automatic variety. At the end of the day, you have to make the decision about the best airsoft guns for your needs and that requires some research and careful consideration. After all, you don’t want to go home with airsoft pistols only to find out you’d have been better off with an M-16.
