One of the downsides to the sport/hobby of airsoft is that if you are under 18 you can’t purchase an airsoft gun yourself. Well technically you can’t because Airsoft guns are required by law to be purchased only by adults (we all know your local hobby shop will probably sell you one). Since Christmas is coming up we thought we’d make a helpful post for you ‘teens giving you some talking points to help convince Santa (aka your parents) to get you an Airsoft gun as a gift. These talking points can also apply to seasons other than Christmas as it’s always a good time to get a new Airsoft rifle!
Talking Points (feel free to print this for handy reference)
1. They’re just toys. Yes even though we call them guns, rifles and pistols these replicas are simply toys and not even close to the real thing. They’re legal pretty much everywhere and cannot be modified to shoot real ammo.
