There is nothing more satisfying than having a swarm of enemies approach your position, and then taking them all out with one quick shot.  Such a feat is capable with a compatible grenade launcher and our new ICS 40mm airsoft grenade shells, which come in either a 6-pack or a 2-pack.

It seems that a lot of times people get caught up in only looking at the kinds of products they are used to looking at.  Never be afraid to take a look at some stuff that you may not have encountered before.  For example, a lot of people who use electric pistols will not even consider a gas option.  It is a fact that gas pistols have more power than electric models, although there is the inconvenience of having to continually purchase gas canisters.  Still, they can be picked up in bulk so it’s not too huge of a problem.  The point is that no matter what you’re used to or not, always consider new things!

It seems that over the holidays there is a reduction in the amount of airsoft that people play.  Perhaps this is because everybody is so busy preparing for Christmas and the like, or due to the fact it gets ridiculously cold out.  But this is the opportune time to be playing airsoft!

There are not many airsoft shotguns that are both awesome-looking and effective weapons, but the DE M8870 Full Metal Shotgun definitely has both of those qualities.  It can fire at over 360FPS and has a hop-up system installed in the barrel.  Rarely will you find an airsoft shotgun that is so powerful, but the M8870 really comes through on all fronts.

In addition, because of the full metal design, you know that it will take quite a long while for anything destructive to happen to this item.  You could have it for years before it starts to degrade, and maybe even longer if you are careful with it.  There is no question that this is one of the best airsoft shotguns on the market.  Check it out!

Today’s Code: REV10 … Send to justin@eastcoastairsoft.com for entry into the contest

If you are really into the sport of airsoft, then it makes sense that you would want to have a team that you could play with.  A lot of people are afraid to try to join a random team because they do not know anybody on it or they are not completely confident in their own skills. Continue Reading

If you want to have the most efficient airsoft team possible, you are going to need to organize your team in a meaningful manner.  That means assigning positions to different people and ensuring that they carry out the duties associated with that position. Continue Reading

Everybody likes to improve their airsoft guns to achieve better performance, but how exactly is this possible without outfitting your gun with expensive upgrades?  Some of the most prestigious upgrades include changes to the gearbox that can greatly enhance power and accuracy, but not only do these cost a lot, but they can be hard to implement.

I don’t know about you, but there have been many times in my life when I have gone several months without playing a single game of airsoft.  It is sad, that is for sure, but I also want to avoid doing that in the future. Continue Reading

Awhile back, I made a post about big news that was coming.  I wasn’t just saying that so I had material to write about for a day.  Today, I would like to announce a great change at EastCoastAirsoft.  We are now implementing a neverending, perpetual, infinite, unceasing, undying, zombie-like contest where you can win free additions to your account balance for using virtually no effort at all.

Every day, I will post a 5-character code on this blog.  Just send that code to me, at justin@eastcoastairsoft.com, and I will record your entry in a spreadsheet. A new code will be posted nearly every day, so you essentially have 28-31 potential entries to gain each month. Once the month is over, I will use an automated system based on a random number generator to determine a winner. That winner will get a $50 credit to their account balance, which they can use for anything, or put towards a larger purchase. If you choose to get something worth less than $50, that means you can get free airsoft guns!

In order to participate, the only qualifications are that you must be 18 or older and be a resident of the United States of America. As long as you satisfy those conditions, you’re golden.

This contest will restart every month, so even if you don’t win, you always have another chance; always. In addition, as EastCoastAirsoft grows, the number of winners and the amount credited will increase, enhancing both your chances of winning and the benefits of being victorious.

The first code will be posted on November 1, 2010, and codes will continue to be posted every day for as long as EastCoastAirsoft exists. Sounds pretty good, right?

When playing airsoft, it is clear that you need to have some consideration for the environment.  Mainly, that is in regards to the pellets that are left out on the ground after a game.  Think about it; with a lot of people playing, you are going to have thousands of pellets peppered throughout the ground.
