The Geography of Quality Airsoft Rifles
By: Mike Zhang
For the past ten years, the airsoft market has been dominated by Taiwanese and Japanese manufacturers like ICS, Classic Army and Tokyo Marui. These companies produce high quality products and enjoy strong brand recognition, but, unfortunately, their reputation for quality comes with a high price tag. Their airsoft sniper rifles start at $250 and are often priced in excess of $400, making them a major investment and limiting the average person’s ability to purchase multiple arms. One could argue that this is simply the cost of quality, but as an industry insider I know the high price tag has more to do with their manufacturing costs than the guns’ superior construction.
In recent years, some strong contenders from China have garnered attention. Manufacturers like Jing Gong (JG), AGM, DBoys, and CYMA may have at first been dismissed as Chinese knockoffs, but today it is clear that they manufacture to the same high performance/quality standards as their Japanese and Taiwanese counterparts. How do they manufacture high quality products for so much less? The Chinese factories tend to be larger and have lower labor and component costs. In fact, you are more likely to find these electric airsoft rifles on US military training bases than their East Asian competitors because you simply cannot beat the value.
The classic airsoft manufacturers may have met their match in the new generation of Chinese manufactured arms. Here are a few examples of high-value Chinese manufactured airsoft rifles:
- The JG M4 S-System: With a muzzle velocity that overpowers even Tokyo Marui AEGs, this firearm is a tremendous value considering its extremely solid ABS polymer body and full metal rail system and gear box. The JG M4 S-System is releasing a new 2010 version and features numerous tactical accessory upgrades, including flashlights, scopes, lasers, and grenade launchers.
- JG M4 S-System Full Metal: Similar to the KWA M4 S-SYSTEM, but more advanced, the JG M4 S-SYSTEM features full metal design and fires at 400-450 FPS. A pre-installed MOSFET CHIP ensures the highest rate of fire, quicker trigger response and longer battery life. It is literally the lowest priced MOSFET-equipped airsoft M4 S-System AEG there is.
- AGM L96 w/ scope & bipod: Perhaps one of the best rifles ever launched by AGM, the new AGM AWP L96 bolt action sniper rifle is one of the nicest bolt actions on the market for under $100. It features a long, one-piece, full-metal, tight-bore sniper barrel and shoots with extreme force (over 450 FPS) and accuracy.
- DE Multi-Shot Triple Burst Shotgun: This multi-shot, triple burst, heavyweight shotgun is the newest DE shotgun on the market. It features three barrels combined into one super-reinforced barrel to maximize power and tactical efficiency. Three BBs shoot out after every pump, making this the fastest-shooting airsoft shotgun on the market, not to mention one of the most versatile shotguns you can purchase for less than $100.

Regardless of the type of airsoft electric rifle you bring along, you’ll need to be packing extra ammunition and magazines. Hopefully, you have some idea how long you’re going to be playing so you can know about how much extra ammo to carry. At least 500 is a good idea but you might want to bring along extra. Having too much is better than not enough, of course. Additionally, bring along a couple of extra magazines that you can load in advance and have ready to switch into your primary weapon as needed.
You might also want to consider bringing along a secondary weapon. These are sometimes referred to as sidearms. The best choice is usually an airsoft pistol because they are smaller, lightweight, and easy to conceal. Those are important factors because you don’t want your sidearm getting in the way of your airsoft AEG rifle, http://www.softairpro.com/airsoft-rifles/
Make sure that when you do choose a primary weapon that you get one that is going to deliver on the field. When you’re planning on playing Airsoft, AEG airsoft rifle are going to be the best choice in most cases.

While having the right airsoft electric rifles for the game is going to play an important role in your success, the clothes certainly are going to play a helpful role. Think about it. If you’re trying to hide from the enemy so you can get a good shot or so you don’t get shot, the worse thing you can be wearing is your street clothes. You’re going to stand out and be an easy target. Instead, head to your favorite web site that sells airsoft electric rifles or go to a local army surplus store and buy some appropriate clothes. Choose camouflage if you’re going to be outdoors; black if you’re going to be indoors or playing at night.
Additionally, you’ll need to bring along some safety gear as well. Wearing more than one layer of clothes is a good idea because the bbs can sting, especially at close distances. You should also always wear protective eye goggles to make sure you don’t receive a serious injury on the field. Make sure to bring along a bag or backpack that can hold all of your equipment as well.
