General information On airsoft:

Some players even wear military-style helmets, such as the kevlar MICH helmet, or hydration systems, such as those manufactured by Camelbak. Many airsoft guns, especially AEGs, come with small red plastic barrel blockers that fit over the muzzle, but these can be shot off the gun, and don't provide the quick visual check that a barrel bag does. Some airsoft sites allow the use of pyrotechnics, which are small explosive-driven replicas of ordnance such as grenades. In order to encourage the mixing of segmented communities into a larger community that can more easily engage each other, certain organizations have created safety rules and guidelines for players to share the field under common understanding and to band together in safe environments. Besides the normal ranges or class, there are weapons designed for longer ranges, typically sniper rifles and shorter ranges (also called Close Quarter Battle (CQB) and usually of 200 feet or less).


KWA Full Metal KM4A1 CarbineSome words on airsoft safety:

Always point the gun away from anything and everything that is not intended to be shot. Airsoft player shooting from behind cover wearing goggles that fully seal the area around the eyes and a balaclava to protect the face. 1-2003 rated goggles are specifically intended for use in industry and manufacturing and are not for use in sports. Airsoft playing fields usually have rules specifying what velocity is allowed for each player position.


Airsoft accessories:

And while most players, if they do at all use grenade launchers, will simply use an underbarrell launcher such as the M203, some players purchase heavier support weapons such as replicas of the Heckler & Koch 69 40mm grenade launcher, or a CAW revolving launcher, which can hold up to 6 40mm gas powered pellet grenades, (the pellet capacity of each grenade varies by its producer, and specified use, though grenades by MadBull Airsoft have been known to be able to fire over 200 pellets in a single shot), and shoot them in a semi-automatic mode. The latest Airsoft grenades have much improved since their first introduction, TLSFX UK have done pioneering work in the development of much tougher grenades using rocket star burst shell cases, allowing them to be thrown much farther, ring pull fuses, and filling grenades with dry peas instead of paint balls or pellets, making them mostly biodegradable. There are also small paintball pellets available for airsoft guns;they are prone to breaking in the gun, jamming in the gun, not breaking when hitting the target, and damaging components of the gun which will need repairs to function correctly.


Airsoft is very big on authentic life like cenerios. Here are a few thoughts on that:

Combat situations on the battlefield often involve the use of common military tactics to achieve the objectives set in each game. MILSIM-games often last several days, for example the large BERGET-event in Sweden lasts 6 days in a row, with no breaks. In larger scale MilSims vehicles as simple as painted vans and trucks will be used.
