What is airsoft?
Airsoft is a shooting sport where players use airsoft guns like rifles and pistols to fire 6mm plastic BBs. Airsoft groups can vary in size from a few players to numerous squads, fire teams, and operational forces based on the scale of the field and player turnout.
Primary airsoft weapons consist of the AK47 Kalashnikov, Heckler and Koch H&K G36, Colt M4 Carbine design assault rifles which are reproduced in the form of automatic electric (AEG) airsoft weapons. Sidearms generally include Beretta M9, 1911, or Glock handguns which are used as airsoft green gas or CO2 airsoft pistol versions.
Airsoft players usually use camo patterns for games along with headgear like tactical helmets and tactical vests set up with pouches. Each opposing airsoft team often wears a particular pattern to assist in determining friendly and hostile forces. The most common patterns consist of army battle dress uniforms (BDUs) like forest camouflage, desert camouflage, digital camo, and MultiCam. A colored band can be used on the arm to designate opposing forces if teams can not be separated by uniform.
The targets airsoft guns are shot at can differ depending on game type. Frequently the targets engaged with airsoft guns are other players during the course of force-on-force skirmishes. This is why it is important for all game players on the field to wear protective gear like airsoft safety glasses and face masks and follow the safety principles of the playing field. Other types of targets can vary from stationary objects to paper targets as players enter into marksmanship competitions and exhibitions by aiming to hit items at significantly more difficult ranges. Target acquisition, speed, and accuracy are important to keeping the shots on target.
There are also numerous types of airsoft missions. The types of airsoft games are pretty much endless as game players create more kinds all of the time.
What is Milsim Airsoft
Military simulation airsoft, or milsim, is often a big part of airsoft. Many of the airsoft uniforms, objectives, and weapons are replications of real firearms, military uniforms, and real-world objectives out of history.
Milsim airsoft weapons are based on the period featuring well-known weapons during the time of the mission. The M16A1 rifle has the classic appearance of a Vietnam period assault rifle, while other airsoft rifles like the Heckler & Koch HK416 and IWI TAVOR TAR-21 are much more contemporary. In strict milsim gameplay, weapons need to be consistent with the period, use relevant scopes, and be correctly modded.
Milsim uniforms can differ based on the events and be based around the historic gear of the time. The military gear used typically needs to match the uniform and be from the equivalent period. As an example, a modern U.S. Navy Seal milsim outfit and loadout might integrate a Navy Working Uniform (NWU) camo pattern with a London Bridge Trading LBT-6094 Plate Carrier Gen II AOR1 and a ballistic helmet like the Ops-Core FAST SF Super High Cut Helmet. Look-alike tactical equipment and ballistic panels and helmets are frequently used instead of the legitimate equipment. This helps to save money because the genuine gear can cost thousands of dollars and the replica gear can be lighter to wear on the field.
The objectives carried out during milsim operations include historic reenactments and missions or objectives set as historical fiction. Have you ever wanted to storm the beaches of Normandy, fight for the 38th Parallel, or tackle the drug lords of Mogadishu during Blackhawk Down? Milsim blended with airsoft is the manner in which you can actively take part and experience military history.
