Why wasn't Airsoft More Popular in the 1990's When it First Came Out???

Interesting, very very nice video!! , I have lots of Videos about very old Tokyo Marui Airsoftguns to showcase the History of Airsoft as well . And i keep uploading from time to time. my collection is bigger than what ive shown so far

No internet.

They need to start teaching us the stuff in eighth grade history class

Awesome history lesson Jet. I got into airsoft in 2005. I saw a few airsoft guns at a sporting goods store. It was the FAMAS, and as one who liked both Metal Gear Solid and Halo (as it resembled the BR) I had to get it. I had just turned 18 so I got that and then got a real steel as well since I was there. Prior, my friends and I had been playing paintball so we tried airsoft. The local field didn't have much in terms of rules, aside "wear safety glasses" so that was interesting. I still play now, 20 years later (freak I'm old lol) But it's still fun for me, as I got my niece and nephew into the sport.

I had a Zebra!

Awesome video man! I have only been playing airsoft for a little over a year now and was just introduced to Novritch guns recently. Unfortunately Because of all the new airsoft laws being passed in New York State, that company no longer ships airsoft guns here.

If i would get a penny for every time an austrian encouraged the entire world to pick up guns i would have two pennies, wich isnt much but funny it happened twice

(Not to mention the cult around novritch)

dripped out to tha feet nikticks on fleek

That was a fantastic video thank you for the new knowledge!

dope review jet. thanks for the history lesson.

Prob cause famas

That custom helmet is sick af 😎🏝️

we want more noobday gameplay

Loved this one 👏

my husband grew up in Japan during the 1990s and he said their was some places to play on Misawa AFB. he has pictures of his friends playing it and many American servicemen on their spare time played it.

Love the news style reporter vibe in the lower section of the screen..

Because grown adults think they're tough for telling kids to "buy real guns" and made it seem uncool to them

Okay, I now want to play airsoft in Japan, as kind of a pilgrimage if you will.

Because larping was just as lame then as it is now. Maybe its time to grow a pair and shoot some real shit.

Hey, no rush but are you going to upload the ACS Noobday 2023 footage?

That's some great coverage of the history behind airsoft and we are glad to have played our part in helping shape certain aspects of it, so thanks for including us! If you ever wanted to do a video like this for ASG, we'd be up for a discussion... we have LOTS we can talk about 😉 -JB

Proud to be In the TEAM ASG photo 👌🏻

Iv been playing Airsoft since the 90's, And I can tell you now the reason why not many people played. 1. No eye pro 2. Expensive 3. No Airsoft Sites. We used to play in the back garden or local parks and woodlands 😂 still have one of my original TM Mp5 A5 👍😎. Love the entertainment you have been providing us Airsofters with for years so far. Thanks Jet your a legend mate 🙏 Uk

Correction on Novritsh SSG24. It was the Mod24X made by Modify that was the sequel to the Mod24. And there were a lot of more improvements in the standard edition of the MOD24x than the hotted up version of the SSG24. It was only a rebranding for the european market.

Novritsch started on tokyo marui vsr10 with Edgi kit inside

We talked about my JAC AR-18 at noob day, I hope this had something to do with this video. Regardless, great history lesson

Can someone please tell me what suppressor he was using in the beginning 😭😭

Probably my favorite 1 to 1 replicas are the WWII American weapons on the market; trying to get as many gas powered M1s as I can lmao

one shop here in the UK made an hk21 AEG from scratch with mags made from the real version's mags for someone in the Netherlands for around £6300.

du bist shise

Wish wed gotten to see more of the games at acs as i was there but thanks for the histroy lesson

You mean modifiy came out with the m24

Can you please be honest and tell people the truth, that modify made the ssg24. They just partnered up with the greedy austrian

I got a TM M4 in 2001. I was the only kid in school that even knew what airsoft was. Before the popularity of the internet, airsoft was relatively unknown. Recently I got back in to it. I can’t believe how much it’s grown!

It wasn’t popular because I wasn’t born duh

What was the suppressor he had on his gun?

Such a shame airsoft hear 🇬🇧 is restricted the way it is just for a real imitation firearm

Jet's outfit is dope but not as dope as the tacticute maid outfit earlier in the video

This is one of the most interesting videos iv watched on the a sport I adore

Community might be growing. But our field counts are dropping.

What is the barrel attachment called on your rifle
