"Airsoft" - Paintball taken to the next level!

" Airsoft is a game in which participants eliminate opponents by hitting each other with 6mm or 8mm plastic BB bullets fired from a compressed-air gun (or airsoft gun) powered by propane, compressed air, manual spring-action, or an electrically powered gearbox.



Airsoft participants organize meetings at dedicated airsoft battlefields often adapted to provide walls, bunkers, trenches, buildings, towers, and other similar man-made field enhancements to simulate real combat environments.
