You dont seem to understand what airsoft is. A real gun isnt comparable to airsoft. Just as a real gun isnt comparable to paintball. Airsoft is simply a more realiastic paintball, there is nothing like getting 60 guys out to a nice farm property with ravines, barns, bunkers, etc.. and fight for control over specific buildings with harmless bbs that can shoot accuratly out to hundreds of feet, snipers being able to shoot much further. The sport is NOTHING like plinking around at the range with a real gun. Granted I quit a few years ago, but I do miss it. |
ah ok...so how do the bullets work for it...same effect as a paintball gun...or is it different? |
Well its different in the sense they shoot accurately up to a few hundred feet in a calm wind. This is accomplished through what is called a "hop-up" system which puts backspin on the bbs as they leave the barrel which makes them fly straight even as they slow down, this is also adjustable for the weight of the BBs you're using. The bbs dont leave marks or anything, the "hit system" is basically an honor system, if you get hit, you call youself hit, you can feel it 99% of the time. I've paintballed and airsoft, for the overall experience, paintball comes nowhere near airsoft.
