What is an Airsoft Gun? 

Airsoft is a unique sport where opposing teams engage in simulated combat using firearm replicas. Airsoft Guns are replicas of original guns, as they shoot plastic projectile balls instead of bullets. These can include airsoft pistols, machine guns, assault rifles, shotguns, revolvers, or sniper rifles. We provide you with a huge variety of airsoft guns and airsoft gun accessories at LA Airsoft.

 

Types of Airsoft Guns That Fit Your Needs

Typically, airsoft guns are of three types,

• Electric airsoft guns
• Gas-powered airsoft guns
• Spring-loaded airsoft guns

Spring-loaded airsoft guns are operated manually. These airsoft guns have a cylinder and a spring that propels the piston. Gas-powered airsoft rifles or pistols use CO2 or another gas mixture to propel the pellets. Electric airsoft guns are the most popular. These are powered by a rechargeable battery pack.

Airsoft Pistols 

Airsoft pistols are very popular, and they are a great choice for close-quarters combat (CQB) and backup weapons for airsoft players. There are three types of airsoft pistols.

1. Gas-Powered Pistols
   These pistols use compressed gas to propel the BB. Usually, these guns are either blowback or non-blowback.  
2. Electric-Powered Pistols (AEPs)
   Electric pistols are battery-powered. An electric motor, piston, gearset, and spring are used to create the pressure to fire the BBs.  
3. Spring-Loaded Pistols
   These airsoft pistols require the user to manually cock the slide before each shot. They are simple and affordable airsoft guns, and they don’t require gas or batteries.

Key Features of a Good Airsoft Pistol 

• Look for hop-up systems. 
• An optimum reliability across various conditions.  
• It should have a high FPS 
• Higher-capacity magazines reduce the need for frequent reloading.

1. Automated Electric Guns
   These are operated by rechargeable batteries, a motor, and a battery charger. These airsoft rifles let you shoot until you run out of battery or ammo.  
2. Bolt Action
   Bolt action rifles are operated by directly manipulating the bolt via a bolt handle. These are especially popular among the precision marksmen. 
3. Gas Powered
