Hey guys, I just wanted to talk real fast about why I love to play Airsoft...I'm hoping a few people read this and will leave comments and maybe even get a little discussion going about why they love Airsoft too. Alright, well to start things off, one of the main reasons I love Airsoft so much is the awesome equipment. Even if i didn't actually play, I think i would still collect the weapons just because of how real and well they are made as excellent replicas to the real thing...I've always been a big gun buff, but we all know how expensive that hobby can be, so this way I can have a great collection of many different types of pistols and rifles and not break my wallet in half.
The actual action of playing Airsoft is a rush in itself...I really takes me back to the times of being a little kid and playing little games like 'Cops and Robbers' except on a much bigger scale. Combat scenarios just sound really cool to me...pretending you are part of a platoon, going into enemy territory, completing dangerous missions and objectives...its one of every guys' fantasy to do something like that in real life. Airsoft gives me a means to come closer to things I have always dreamed of doing. So, now it is your turn...leave a comment and tell me what you love about Airsoft.

Airsoft Grenades!

Airsoft Grenades??? These actually exist? The Airsoft grenade is one of the coolest accessories in the world of Airsoft. These grenades are designed to enhance scenario games and take the realism of the game to the next level; they can also serve as an excellent training tool for both military and law enforcement. The video below will show you how to use one particular type of hand grenade, how it works, and the effects and strategies of using it. However, below that is a link to another type of hand grenade, a Pineapple style grenade. These grenades are designed more realistically, you pull the pin, throw it and the detonation time can be adjusted from 1 to 8 seconds...it will propel the Airsoft BBs and also simulate smoke, a bit more high tech than the ones in the video...its still a fun watch none the less. This hand grenade is powered by 134a green gas and can also be operated with C02 or compressed air at 75-80 psi by using the AGI grenade charger and regulator. The grenade is loaded with powder and 6mm Airsoft BBs for different effects...the powder will leave a noticeable residue for easy identification of a hit. Keep your eyes out for other Airsoft accessories for sale in the store.
