What does an airsoft gun cost?

Gunfinder Magazine

Airsoft (or softair) guns are available from around 20 euros. However, these models fall more into the toy category. Precise weapons that can easily be mistaken for their original counterparts can cost several hundred euros. For beginners in the airsoft sport, the question arises as to how much they should spend on the gun and equipment at the beginning.

If someone only wants to shoot at targets or cans in their own garden, they are well advised to get a cheap beginner gun. However, if they want to participate in softair games with other players, they will need a suitable weapon and possibly a matching sight, as well as clothing and appropriate protective gear. 

Softair Equipment: Safety Glasses

The most important item of equipment is the safety glasses. Airsoft BBs have relatively low energy and therefore cannot cause injury - except to the eyes. In airsoft halls and on airsoft fields, safety glasses are part of the mandatory equipment. It is important to check that the eyes are securely covered and that the glasses are bulletproof! This does not apply to ski goggles!

 

What does a beginner airsoft cost?

Before thinking about the price of a gun, one should consider what type of gun they want to acquire. While it may be tempting to first get a cheap pistol, it is only effective at short distances on the field, and passionate players will quickly reach the shooting performance limits of airsoft pistols. Therefore, we recommend that airsoft players start with a model of a submachine gun or assault rifle - airsoft rifles offer greater range, greater precision, and usually larger magazines compared to pistols. Pistols are more suitable as a backup weapon.

We advise players to invest about 250 euros in an all-round weapon. As with most things, the saying "If you buy cheap, you buy twice" also applies in the field of airsoft.
