These Realistic Imitation Firearms are great collectors’ items that include some of the finest  functional gun replicas available. They fire lightweight 6mm spherical plastic pellets which make them suitable for airsoft skirmishing, close range practical shooting competitions, and indoor target practice at home. On a still day, airsoft pellets can be just as accurate as BBs for ranged target shooting outdoors, and although they are less destructive than steel or lead, they will still shred pop cans when used for back garden plinking. Some airsoft guns feature true blowback operation, which  provides recoil driven slide action re-cocking and a satisfying recoil kick. There are also some fully automatic models available, making airsoft guns the only way to own and experience a fully automatic weapon in the UK.
