The Airsoft Hub connects Teams & Players on Facebook

Started from scratch in February 2010, the Airsoft Hub is born of a simple idea: leveraging Facebook and reach a critical mass of fans to connect Airsoft players and teams. Thanks to the contribution of its 27 000 members, the Airsoft Hub is now simply the fastest growing Airsoft fanpage on Facebook and one of the most active community online.

We've been getting a lot of email and telephone inquiries regarding the unavailability of a large number of Chinese guns, so we'll outline here the reasons for the lack of stock, and the prospects for them returning in the near future.

As you may or may not know, airsoft gun manufacturing and sale is illegal in China. Chinese made guns are designed and manufactured in hidden factories in Mainland China, and smuggled out of the country to Hong Kong, where they are a legal commodity. Hong Kong retailers and wholesalers then distribute them to the rest of the world.

Don't forget....here at Eirsoft, we'll do our best to get you the best value in all things airsoft.

If you see something elsewhere that we don't carry in our regular stock listing, simply get in touch and we'll order it for you.

As you've no doubt seen over the past few weeks and months, there's been a lot of talk, both here on Boards.ie, and elsewhere, about the implementation of the ban on personally importing RIFs, and how this will drastically limit the choice available to the average Irish skirmisher and collector.

We all agree that no Irish retailer can hope to stock the huge range of airsoft guns available from Hong Kong and Taiwan, and that being unable to import your RIFs yourself is, to put it mildly, a bit of a pain.

New Biodegradable and standard BBs have been added to the site, manufactured by Bioval and GFC. They're available in both .2g and .25g weights. We've also taken delivery of a new range of green gas from T&T. Hyper Gas is extremely high quality airsoft gas, which generates an amazing 320 fps with a .2g BB on a KSC USP metal slide pistol.
