getting started in airsoft is exciting and we're here to help you every step of the way. this guide covers some basics you need to know for your first game.
one of our greatest goals is to introduce more airsofters into the sport.
essential gear for your first game
required safety equipment:
full-seal eye protection (ansi z87.1+ rated)
face protection (mesh mask recommended)
clothing recommendations:
short or long sleeve shirt or jacketpants
sturdy boots or athletic shoes
gloves for hand protection
airsoft gun options for beginners:
we recommend this approach
borrow from a friend: we love it when players bring friends if possible, borrowing existing equipment is an amazing way to play airsoft if you don't play consistently enough to justify buying your own gear yet.
entry-level purchase: consider an aeg (automatic electric gun) in the $150-200 range with a full metal gear box.
what to expect at your first game:
safety briefing and rules explanation
chronograph testing of all weapons
team assignment and game objectives
multiple game types throughout the day
airsoft etiquette:
call your hits: honesty is crucial - call yourself out when hit
follow field rules: different fields have different regulations
respect minimum engagement distances: important for everyone's safety
communication: stay in touch with your team and listen to field staff
other equipment:
bring water and snacks
bring all guns, batteries and bbs needed
[ review field rules and fps/joule limits ]
[ bring your own gear and supplies (bbs, gas, batteries) ]
