What is Airsoft

Airsoft 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 Far Eastern countries such as Japan, China, Hong Kong and Taiwan. Many of these Chinese guns are dominating the airsoft market. Companies like G&G, Classic Army, ICS have spread their name quickly with their cheaper and affordable prices.          

Honor system

An "honor system" is employed whereby the players rely on each others honesty to admit to being hit, because unlike paintball, the plastic pellets stop on hitting clothing. Depending on the muzzle velocity of the gun and distance from which a person is shooting, the person on the receiving end of the shot will usually feel a slight pain on the area of impact. The pellets will sometimes not be felt by a player at very long ranges.
