Don't go broke, train with AIRSOFT 

Gbbr when 👀?

It would be cool if you visit them for some Real Steel Shooting.

Seen that and made me think about getting airsoft. It was a great video and the kid was impressive.

guy is called Liku

Damn that sounds so fun, wish I had that as a kid

Just some cheap entertainment with some friends. Nothing too special. Was some of the best times we had as a group. We had to use our imagination back in the day. We also had bb gun sniper battles in the mountains but those ended up being much more scary and painful then airsoft. Those were more competitive than fun. We would have one or two kids as evasive snipers and a few squads of kids hunting them. But plastic low velocity bbs are one thing, and not hard to get others into it. High velocity copper and steel bbs are another, people tended not to want to play anymore when branches are being shot off trees and chunks of rock and cover shattering around their face lol. We never thought about just how fatally deadly it could be until someone we knew brother took a BB that snuck between his ribs and into his heart that killed him. We never got serious injury past some minor skin breaks and bruises though. It was kinda common sense not to be pumping air more than what would just hurt bad. We would also set up melee fights with teams and wooden equipment. That was probably the most dangerous and we'd usually go home with the shit beat out of us. Fun times. I feel bad for the kids growing up with the only communication with their friends, family and community done through a screen.

"non combatants" AKA little sisters, pets, mothers...

Lol no. Some of us would volunteer. Nobody like that would want to be in range of us most of the time. Though my mother did get shot in the face one afternoon opening a window. Kid ran all the way across town home crying after afraid my mom was going to tell his mom he shot her in the face lmao. But no, for example, we would have sort of game modes. Some including police shoot outs, bank robberies, and even HVT or escorting Congress or a president or something. We had alot of fun ideas. We would take turns playing not combatants. Plus playing the president is fun. I even bought a stealth setup that were two working suppressed 1911s like agent 47 and we'd do the whole hitman thing back when those first came out on PS2. Some of my friends parents got mad at me asking why I was training their kids how to sneak up on each other and slit their throats lmao

@@ulfhedtyrsson what apocalypse? Dont tell me you stockpiled toilet paper

We did a normal airsoft game in Czech Republic and were so excited about it that we are now thinking of doing force-on-force and even milsim And we will be selling Novritsch guns in our webstore as a training kit :)

How are the gun laws in Japan? Handguns, hunting rifles, AR-15s?

@@chriskoort5717 nothing allowed for civilians old revolvers for cops, shotguns for hunters, and that's it

@@tamonaji877 I know it is a stupid question, but is the airsoft completely unregulated in Japan? Here in Poland a primary school kid can walk into a store, buy any airsoft they want and run out having such a gun loaded in their hands.

@@darek4488 its not stupid and thank you for asking. it actually depends on prefecture, but most of them regulates velocity of guns for kids(usually around 0.3J). However in Okinawa island, kids above 10 can buy guns for 18+ (around 0.9J)

@@tamonaji877 That's energy, not velocity. Over here any pneumatic gun below 17J is not classified as a weapon and anybody can have it. Doesn't even matter if it shoots plastic, rubber, foam, steel, copper, lead, paintball or teargas balls. You can shoot these on your own property or indoors. However even just aiming these at someone can end with a prosecution, court and jail if they feel threatened or endangered. However legally it would be the same if you have thrown a hammer or a brick at them.

Until they shoot their own eye out lmao

@@codemy666 You’ll shoot your eye out kid.

​@@codemy666 Better than shooting their brains out

Gotta disagree just because it's recommending people go watch or listen to Lucas, and that's not something anyone with a brain should do.

Yeah, but Riku was training at 10 yards. It's relatively easy to control recoil at 10 yards, even for a 'rooky' shooter. Try going from airsoft to 9mm for the first time at 25+ yards and see how many A zone shots you'll make within 2 seconds.

@@Haitch_Kay I have only watched a few of his vids. He looks a bit young/inexperienced and the vids are maybe overproduced, but what actual bad takes does he have?

@@jasong5913 prolly zero lol. As an airsofter i shot a 9mm for the first time at 25 meters and my grouping was all over the place

@@jasong5913After 15+years playing airsoft, I've been to a few USPSA matches and can confirm. But my transitions, acquisitions and reloads were on point, so I could compensate.

Your parents are probably still finding air soft thingys in odd places. XD

We also did an airsoft game in Czech Republic with Novritsch guns and his setup - it was super fun! :D I was so impressed that now we are talking with them to sell their guns in our store and probably using them for force-on-force training. Hopefully that video is coming soon :)

@@PolenarTactical I wanna buy the airsoft pistol you used in this video for training where can I get that at? Thanks for this video!! 💪🏾

@@vicdiaz5180 they have an US shop - i recommend the gun with CO2 magazines, it's more powerful us.novritsch.com/product/ssp18-gas-blowback-pistol/

@@vicdiaz5180 at Redwolf Airsoft it’s sold out but they do have a 2011 type in stock

If you’re gonna use airsoft for training… research the differences b/w co2 and green gas. Very important. Also, there’s many exact replicas of different pistols if you want to train with your specific handgun in mind. Glock, PPQ, HK45, USP, Staccato etc. Do some research before wasting money. (Especially if you’re doing this to save money) If one brand is a lot cheaper… there’s a reason. If you don’t want the orange turd on the end of the barrel, order from Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan… they’ll still legally add it on but won’t Loctite the crap out of it. Use a heat gun (or hairdryer) and it’ll come off w/o ruining the gun. Just know your local laws but keep the Orange tip if you’re gonna travel with it, just lightly glue back on. Inside your house… no ones gonna care.

Just did the same! I did pick up the 18c though since airguns don't have full auto regulations in the states lol

Just did the same actually! Glock 17 Gen 5. Looking forward to improving some skills and then seeing how they translate to the real steel @ the range

I was super excited :D

And it's a very effective training! One of the best competitive shooters in Slovenia also uses airsoft for training at home

Shooting at paper targets with an Airsoft gun gets boring quite fast. The main thrill comes from going against your friends who are actively trying to "kill" you.

The Giveaway to going real steel was when Ziga wore ear protection right before he actually started shooting

Also I would add getting used to weapons weight. I've seen people on range struggling to shoot like 5 bullets because arms weren't used to hold a rifle for example.

@@astmatyk5166 They weigh the same

@@HaasGrotesk That's why it makes sense. People can get used to hold weapon wihout buying/renting it

@@astmatyk5166 To be honest they even look the same. There was plenty of times in this video I was expecting a BB to come out of the barrel and an actual round came out. I also believe there are so many more aspect to shooting than just "recoil management". Recoile management is like 1 out of 20 things to train.

Also we went to an airsoft game to Czech Republic - video of that coming as soon as we are able to sort all 500gb of raw footage :/

@@PolenarTactical Fantastic! I hope you all had great fun at the airsoft game. I actually own the Novritsch pistol & the P90 you guys were using in this video. They’re good fun & great for training drills. Good luck with the 500gb of footage to go through lol

This is what i said to the Novritsch guys, they need to make a realistic gas blowback rifle and it will be perfect for training and FOF

But the electric rifles do have more FPS and hit power. But I get what you’re saying you’re all about the realism with the recoil

@@PolenarTactical Costs aside, you should look at Viper Tech. They build essentially real guns that fire airsoft BBs. They're of the same quality as real AR15s, and made on Colt dies. The creme de la creme of the airsoft world. Slap in an H2 buffer and GHK mags modded for co2, and you got the best stuff there is.

@@gravargen943 after reading your post I just checked them out looks pretty damn good! It looks like some of the guns I have and honestly if I put them side-by-side you couldn’t tell the difference, very realistic!

@@vicdiaz5180 What is the point of more FPS and hit power when you just want to use it as a training tool for weapon handling and maneuvering? An airsoft gun will never be good tool for training accuracy at a distance so more power is pointless and what exists in the GBBR realm is already good enough for marking hits at cqb distances. The value as a training tool is in the identical weapon manipulation, weight, balance and ergonomics. While an AEG fills some of those criteria, the GBBR fills all of them.

How is the airsoft AK12? Someone commented under our video that it seems better built than the original :D

@@PolenarTactical it seriously is, which is a shocker lol. ive handled a few LCT ak12 builds and an Arcturus, and the amount of wobble and cheap grip on the real deal would be considered unacceptable for airsoft, which makes me laugh so hard

You can weep to me over the phone any time, sempai

Same, brother, though I was mastering the gun instead. Larping in my own room with my own gears and gel blaster guns.

HPA Airsoft?

That may already be a thing actually. There are gas blowback rifles that use gas stored in the magazines that provide some recoil, and then there are guns with a hose to an air tank called HPA. There might be some HPA guns that blow back too

Even with HPA you get nothing like the real sensations of recoil, it's still airsoft, running at a maximum of about 200 PSI, whereas, your average firearm runs about 25,000 psi.

@@LoganRonin-vn2we but do this hpa kick like a real firearm? I’m looking for a 1:1 relation.

@@FishFind3000 If you hook an HPA tank to a GBBR, you can get something similar to a real gun. Not as strong a kick as a real one, but its something. A full HPA gun has no "kick" whatsoever. You can point and shoot with one hand with zero kick. They're like godmode cheats in FPS games.

Happy Easter to you too! :)

"sorry, wrong gun"

It's a great way for kids to learn about guns and especially have fun. Just be very strict with protective equipment - eye protection should be always worn! Also if you use powerful airsoft guns for force-on-force at close range, the BBs can easily penetrate your skin or break a tooth. So it may look like a toy but it can be dangerous if used recklessly

Honestly there's no reason not to, the overlap between two hobbys is quite large

@@codemy666 ikr, it’s weird that no one did airsoft content until recently

We call him a camera ninja - he's next to me when i shoot and he only pushes the camera forward of the gun with one hand to get the shot. I don't allow him to go in front of the shooting line or do anything that could potentially be dangerous

@@PolenarTactical I saw how he was flipping the camera angle it looks like he’s almost in front of it. yeah he’s a ninja indeed lol.

Most serious shooters that i know are very open to airsoft and other forms of training or just having fun. I actually train at home with VR a lot now

there was a moment of "WTF?!?" in their eyes 😂

Unfortunately you cannot train mag changes with airsoft AKs very well because airsoft mags are fragile things compared to the real deal. With ARs you just shove them in - that works. But the angled leveraging movement used for AK mag changes tends to break plastic real soon.

@@mananaVesta you still get the functionality and feel. I agree the airsoft magazines are fragile so mag kicks aren't advised. Also, I was able to clip in a real magazine into the airsoft rifle. I did have to remove the main spring and guide as it interfered with the airsoft. But the main body clipped in...

Which begs the point. Why buy a toy gun when you can get a real one?

@@hydrogencyanide2493 Do you shoot your friends with real guns? Also have you checked the price of ammo lately?

@@hydrogencyanide2493 Perhaps because you go to jail for murder if you shoot your buddies with a real gun. Airsoft isn't just a hobby, it's a sport. Plus, in several countries, getting a firearm's permit is quite the pain of a process, if not outright impossible. This argument is as outdated as Russia's military.

@@PolenarTactical ammo is gold. I will trade you an ammo can full of 556 for that blowback pistol 😂

@@gravargen943 I'm from the UK and i would trade my kidney just to legally own a firearm thats semi auto which isnt .22lr

He meant empty mags. You don't usually drop it when full

@@vasylsky9486 4:21 he talks about the difference while reloading

I think some people view airsoft as toys for kids and then have ego problems because of their own insecurity. Airsoft is just airsoft, realistic looking replicas that are more powerful and accurate then paintball. What is not to like about it? It can be fun and it can also be a very effective training tool, it just depends on how you use it

regarding the reload, i think the Novritsch gun is also modelled after a competition ready Glock and it has a more flared magwell

that's a result complying in the 1980's, now you can't even buy toys.

Ender 3v2 are so cheap that you should buy one if you can afford one, pretty useful for other things too!

Normal CCI 22lr are around $0.30 a round right now. That's $3/mag

I just bought a bucket of remington 36grain for 7¢ a bullet, and I see CCI for a lot less than what you’re quoting

its a good choice sure, but you then need to get a replica of your gun, which could be well over 4-600 bucks, and then you need to go to the range, and overall its just less convenient than airsoft for at home training.

Well but you still need go to shooting range bat idea do that on garden. But If you are on shooting range it can be good option if you have bigger gun with more expensive ammo.
