Introduction
In the following work we are going to talk about the airsoft to understand what is,
the history, the airsoft guns and safety Orange-tipped airsoft gun muzzles.

Definition:
Airsoft is a game in which participants eliminate opponents by hitting each other
with spherical non-metallic pellets launched via replica fire arms called Airsoft guns.
Gameplay varies in style and composition but often range from short-term skirmishes,
organized scenarios, C.Q.B., field, military simulations (MilSim), or historical reenactments
and indoor airsoft fields. Combat situations on the battlefield may involve the use of
military tactics to achieve objectives set in each game. Participants may attempt to
emulate the tactical equipment and accessories used by modern military and police
organizations. the airsoft guns will have spread to the UK by 1980

History:
Airsoft originates in Japan. Airsoft guns spread to the UK in the late 1980s with a company
called LS. The guns were sold in pieces and had to be assembled before they were
capable of firing pellets. Airsoft equipment was designed to closely emulate real guns.
Since the mid-1980s, airsoft guns have been adapted with a purely recreational application
in mind, and the sport is enjoyed by all ages. Airsoft replicas are produced globally, with
the majority being manufactured in Asia. Many law enforcement agencies in the US use
Airsoft for force-on-force training drills. The first airsoft gun will have assembled by 1950.

AirSoft guns:
The guns used in airsoft are typically imitation firearms. They have a mechanism for
shooting projectiles 6 mm or 8 mm in diameter.
Airsoft guns are classified according to their operating principle, which can be spring
loaded, electric (battery powered Automatic Electric Guns, Airsoft Electric Guns or
"AEG's"), or gas-powered (if these have a blowback feature they are known as "GBBs").
Some companies produce full replicas of counterpart grenade launchers which fire a
projectile spray of 6mm pellets by use of a high-powered spring mechanism or a
compressed gas propellant (i.e. green gas, propane, compressed air, or CO 2). There is
also a type of airsoft gun known as a "PolarStar" or P* for short. They are powered by a
single (HPA) high-pressure air tank and a battery pack to power the internal FCU "Fire
Control Unit" computer board. These guns are often known for their high and adjustable
ROF or "rate of fire" and durability.The first electric gun will have generalized by 1990.

Orange-tipped airsoft gun muzzles

Although airsoft guns in the United States are generally sold with a 6mm (0.24in.) or longer
orange tip on the barrel in order to distinguish them from real firearms, this is not in fact
required by federal law. Manufacturers and importers may cite Title 15 of the Code of
Federal Regulations, which stipulates that "no person shall manufacture, enter into
commerce, ship, transport, or receive any toy, look-alike, or imitation fire arm" without
approved markings. The law Orange-tipped airsoft gun muzzles will have posted by 1950
