A few orders have been placed for new products, so expect to see more products added within the next week.  These are some really good airsoft guns, so if I were you, I’d be excited!

The CM019A2 Uzi package is a great buy at only $35.  Not only is the automatic Uzi a powerful airsoft gun, firing at 200fps and holding a capacity of two hundred BBs, but there are many accessories included.  These include the charger, batteries, scope, flashlight, laser, safety glasses, and more!  The gun itself is very attractive and sleek, and the package is approved to be shipped to the United States and Canada.  Check it out!

We need more people to sign up for our Topsites section, which is beneficial to both parties involved.  We send traffic to you, and you send traffic to us, and everybody wins.  Nothing is better than a win-win situation!

While airsoft guns are important, it is also necessary to add accessories in order to improve your abilities.  For example, many of the sniper rifles we sell do not come with scopes, and everybody knows it’s the scope that makes a sniper rifle a sniper rifle.  There are many other accessories that are useful for improving your game, so make sure to consider adding them to your arsenal.

There are some pretty good airsoft guns out there, but this one has to be one of the best. The ARES DSR-1 Gas Sniper Rifle is an extremely high-quality and prestigious model.  It’s power is unrivaled, and it comes with a detailed scope that greatly increases accuracy.  Its price only underlines the fact that this is for serious airsoft players only!

As everyone knows, airsoft and paintball are somewhat like rivals.  Paintball has their loyal players and airsoft has its own.  But which sport truly is the best?

Let’s start with the pros and cons of each sport.  In regards to airsoft, it is cheaper, more realistic, and can be more easily played than paintball.  Airsoft, being extremely realistic, is a collector hobby as well as a sport, making it just that much better.

One of the most notable cons of airsoft is the ability to cheat, although that will be investigated in further detail later.  Airsoft guns are a bit harder to work on and repair than paintball guns, and they can break more easily.

As for paintball, the markers are more customizable than airsoft guns.  During a game, it is also much more difficult to cheat, since when a player is hit, there is visual evidence of it.  Finally, paintball as a whole has more participants than airsoft, so it may be easier to find people to play with.

There are also a few myths out there about each sport.  One big question is which one hurts more?  Airsoft pellets give more of a stinging sensation, while paintball is generally painful.  This doesn’t necessarily mean one or the other hurts more, because it is all dependent upon where you get hit.

Another myth is that paintballs shoot further.  This is simply not true.  A quality airsoft gun can shoot at least 100-200 feet.  After about 110 feet accuracy starts to lessen, but they all shoot around the same distances.

The major argument for the paintball team is that airsoft is much easier to cheat in.  But as airsoft players and enthusiasts, we all know this.  Everyone that plays airsoft knows it is a sport that is based on honor.  If you cheat, there is no point to playing, and winning means nothing.

Based on observation and statistics, those who play airsoft are usually older and more mature than paintballers.  This is not always the case, and may just be because paintball is more well known to the younger crowd than airsoft.

Well it’s been almost a year since I said anything about the airsoft accessories category, so here we go again.  Many people think of accessories as insignificant next to the magnificence of the actual guns, but accessories are necessary to improve airsoft guns and augment them. Also, all of our accessories are fairly priced and high quality, so you can be sure you’ll like them!

EastCoastAirsoft carries many different kinds of internal parts, including bushings and bearings.  These parts are available for several types of airsoft guns and are very high-quality.  Check it out!

It is always important to be careful during an airsoft game.  Don’t rush in to things without surveying the situation first.  It can be all too easy to overlook an obstacle or enemy, and then once they attack, it is too late.  You can never be too careful, in life and in airsoft!

The 18 Round BB Shower is a grenade compatible with the M203 grenade launcher.  It is ideal for firing into large groupings of enemies, or for taking out an abnormally elusive foe.  Definitely worth giving a “shot”!
