some of you dont think its a weapon, but for some of these airsoft guns you can be shooting 500+ fps at a rate of 20+ bps. i dont no about you, but being just in regular cloths getting hit at a short distance, that shit would fucking hurt. i mean yeah its not a bullet hitting you but its a shit load of bbs hitting you over and over and a rate of speed that would break skin. id see that as a weapon.

They range depending the Bb weights and the upgrades

Most stock guns are about 350-390 respectively

I have an upgraded G3 that pushes 450 with .25gram weights.

The BAFT and the Federal government say that a firearm “expels a projectile by the rapid burning of a propellant”. Airsoft are BB guns, and I would be real surprised if the local FBI field office showed up for 80 BB guns being stolen.

“Mil-spec training weapons”? exactly what mil-spec do they comply with? The .mil uses real weapons to train with, not electric bb guns. I’ve worked with every facet of the US Army, and most of the Air Force unconventional warfare types, and they use reall bullets in shoot houses, regular infantry uses “lipstick” rounds or blanks. I get a giggle out of the airsofters sometimes.

What he means Is there are certain ones that are true to the military specifications, with weight, loading procedures etc etc.

The others are usually much much lighter.
