Airsoft Rifle Aiming Methods
Airsoft rifles are very powerful weapons. They can shoot over 140+ feet. Airsoft rifles like the weapon have broad uses on the airsoft field from close range engagements (remember the arena’s minimum engagement distances and rules) in addition to long-range engagements. For close quarters, hold the rifle in a way where you can quickly maintain your sight picture and fire at targets. This includes using the rifle’s rear stock to bear the airsoft gun along with holding the rifle at vectors away from your cover.
An advanced method to fire this brand rifle in fast acquisition environments is to clamp the stock (or rear of the weapon) in between your upper arm and body to shorten the overall length of the airsoft gun and bring it closer to you. This technique is helpful to keep the gun closer to your body when using the gun in areas which permit players to play with airsoft rifles inside for room to room clearing and close in fighting.
When shooting the Whetstone P1188 Airsoft Rifle and Pistol Combo rifle over long distances, shoulder the gun’s buttstock for a firm and steady shooting position. This will give you the best accuracy for shooting airsoft BBs over longer distances at 30+ meters.
