Airsoft is a competitive team sport and is often confused with paintball that is a similar recreational sport with some differences. Airsoft sport involves two teams which shoot with a spherical plastic projectile and is launched with an animation air weapon called airsoft guns. Airsoft game is a very ethical game when it is compared to paintball because it hurts very less and hits can not be observed. Airsoft gun’s muzzle velocity makes it different then paintball and before every game, an airsoft gun is calibrated and tested with a chronograph which is measured in feet per second. There are some restrictions on FPS which vary and depend upon the game sites and countries.

The continuous rise in enthusiastic and adventure-loving people is the key factor for driving the airsoft guns market. In addition, people are getting disposable incomes to invest in airsoft guns. The guns are available in the market since the 1970s but sport came into existence in the last fifteen years due to its adventurous nature. As air sport is illegal in some countries including the UK, this is limiting the expansion of the airsoft guns market in few countries. But you can find airsoft rifles for sale in Canada due to the air sports popularity in the country.

Global airsoft guns market is segmented on product type, firing action, velocity, firing range, price range, sales channel, and buyer type. The Global guns market is segmented in six regions North America, Latin America, Europe, and the Asia Pacific except Japan, the Middle East & Africa. North America is the largest consumer of airsoft guns and accounts for two-thirds of the global market. In the US, many law enforcement and military training institutions are using airsoft guns for training purpose. The outlook for the airsoft guns market is looking positive on the global level as all the regions are showing a consistent interest in it.
