THE BEST AIRSOFT REPLICA FOR A BEGINNER PLAYER

The airsoft equipment industry is developing very rapidly and new models of airsoft replicas appear on the market all the time, which differ in quality, features and – of course -price. Our budget is in fact the most important element that determines our choice, and although we can find many relatively cheap and good quality airsoft guns, we are not able to go below a certain price level – if we care about a functional model that will work in the game.

Spring-loaded replicas are usually the cheapest – they are simple designs that require reloading after each shot. Therefore, they are not suitable for a dynamic game where time and quick reflexes count. There is one category of replicas in which a spring drive is often used and these are airsoft snipers. Small and light spring replicas sometimes also serve as a sidearm.

There are also gas powered and electric replicas. Both of these are much more functional and are usually more expensive as well. Players are most likely to choose electric models that work well in all environmental conditions. Gas-powered airsoft replicas can fail at low temperatures, and the repeatability of shots is not very stable. Along with the depletion of gas, the muzzle velocity of the replica may drop, and with it the range and accuracy. Therefore, electric replicas are more reliable. Due to the fact that they have an electric system, they can also be equipped with additional functions.

Among the electric replicas, the most popular are assault rifles. Typically, they can be fired in single fire and bursts, which is very useful on the battlefield. They can also be equipped with additional functions, such as the Blow-Back system, the MOSFET system or the ETU. At first, however, we don’t really need them. They significantly increase the cost of the replica and may be more of a hindrance to inexperienced players than a help.

When choosing an airsoft gun, we should focus more on the quality of workmanship and materials used in the manufacturing the airsoft replica. Its individual parts should be well fitted. It is worth choosing a model with a better quality inner barrel or motor, because our results mostly depend on these two elements. Additional shooting accessories, such as sights, tactical slings or flashlights, are also very useful, thanks to which we can also achieve better results during the game.
