A Quick Noob Guide to Airsoft Gear Maintenance and Storage

It’s the “As Real As It Can Get” next level of Battlefield Gaming.

Forget Paintball……… take it up a step!

Because of the realism of the weapons and tactics involved the Police and Armed forces now use Airsoft for weapons training exercises based around realistic hostile situations.

Our Airsoft hire guns are realistic feel, size and weight “Full Metal” replica firearms the HK MP5 fully automatic machine pistol (As Below) they use small 6mm diameter precision made and polished plastic or sometimes biodegradable bb’s for ammunition.

These guns are by no means toys, they are high capacity battery operated and usually have a muzzle velocity of around 350 feet per second with an average targeting accuracy range of around 50 metres.

In League of Legend, a rank system where your professional consistency in games determine whether you are a bronze, silver, gold, platinum, diamond, or challenger player. The more games you win with your skills and knowledge, the higher you will rank

Whenever you play a competitive game in League of Legend, you get to queue up with other team members that are similar to your rank. Thanks to this system, Diamond games are entirely different from a Bronze game. There’s more creative tactics, and much more exciting

In airsoft, there’s nothing. You and the entire community don’t have an universal agreement on a system that can use to determine a player’s skill and knowledge. As a result, all airsoft competitions feels random. Just a bunch of players smack together to form teams and compete.

The Magazine

Airsoft magazine uses widget and springs to feed BBs into your airsoft gun. Like cars, they have a lifespan. The more work they do, the faster they will die out

Make it your priority to drain out all BBs out of your magazine after every game. And lubricate your gas magazine once a while. These simple things will help preserve the life span of your magazine internals and will help your magazine feed BBs into your airsoft gun better

What about types of magazines? In reality, all magazine function the same way with slight variations. The main difference between them is the quality of material used to build them and their design. In the end, it’s all up to what brand are you buying from. More at TheAirsoftSport.

Never Remove Your Eye-Protection During Games

Do not take your eye-protection off in the field, even if it has fogged up. Just go to the safe zone, clear up the fog, and re-enter the game

Don’t risk your eye sight for something so minor.

Open-carry is also Prohibited

Exposing airsoft guns openly in public is also restricted

The law defines public places as streets, driveways, alleys, parks, plazas, bridges and buildings open to the general public

The exception to the rule is carrying guns which are entirely different and brightly colored

The Walking Dead

Some people love to inform their teammate of enemies position after they died. Dead people should stay dead. Breaking the rules isn’t fun for anyone.

Report these zombies to the referee if you spot them.
