I tried action air at the Target Shooting Show not long ago... It is FUN and way cheaper than running LBP. Perfect "gateway drug", as someone warned me :-)
Interesting, I kinda want to find a local rifle competition. Never knew airsoft matches were so similar to live fire maches. This might be good to lookup. Thanks for showing this!
You should see Asian IPSC Action Air competition looks like. They took it very serious. Because its hard to get a real fire arms in Asia so we use Airsoft as IPSC match every year.
You would be surprised how much punishment a gas magazine can take on concrete. Generally there is a technique to dropping them on their bases and adding upgrade parts to improve rigidity.
i wouldent toss an airgun magazine like a real magazine. the bb gun magazines are a lot more complicated from the gas system in them and tossing them on conrete is a great way to have them start leaking and stop working
They're better built than you think. Everyone was doing exactly the same at this match, there were some cushioned bins but if you're going for the fastest it seems quicker not to use them.
Wow that actually looks pretty close to the 3 gun pistol stages. Is there any restrictions on or different classes for air pistols that can be used, magazine capacity, optics or only iron sights etc. . ?
Good job Callum looks great fun I remember doing something like this using my trusty browning 9mm but it was outdoors got a certificate for it when I looked at the date 1986 couldn’t believe it was that long ago😧 oh yes can you apologise to conners on the live stream calling him Callum.😊
I am from India and really interested in IPSC. Due to the gun laws, I will have to take up Air category for now. But I am not sure how to get started. Can someone please guide me? I tried contacting the IPSC federation, but got no replies yet.
I was using a WE Glock, but Hi Capa's are the most popular it would seem. There are people traveling all over the country for these matches. Join the EnglishShooting and UKPSA Facebook group if you haven't already, there will be a few in them that can help with travel.
I would like to try this, as I am currently ineligible for an FAC due to health reasons. Do you know anywhere in Sussex/Hampshire that offers Action Air?
You could come for a taster session or to complete your UKPSA competition license at Blue Fieldsports based just outside Winchester. We have a range of Action Air guns to try!
It's not a license to own, it's a license to compete, like a racing licence. Although "imitation firearms" require a UKARA card to buy unless they are painted a bright colour.
@@EnglishShooting so how do you buy a toy gun if you're not into airsoft? Can you get a ukara "license" if you just wanna buy a toy gun for action air ipsc?
@@coolbreezetg6 I think you're being specific and trying to twist the context. You are looking for someone to shout UKARA. Well guess what, the law is restrictive on the sale of replica imitation firearms. If you purchase a replica that is brightly colored then there is no issue with a proof of excemption which is what UKARA was designed to cover. Action Air License? It's actually an IPSC Competition License that covers the discipline. There is one for every discipline such as shotgun, rifle, handgun and mini rifle. This is to stop people misrepresenting and to properly teach and maintain a standard for IPSC shooting. All shooting sports have a similar system involving having the credentials to compete at a high level after passing training.
This is a joke. We're having to run around with toy airsoft guns at ranges because we've had our rights taken from us. It must look ridiculous to the rest of the world. Good video on the subject but I would have preferred it if I could have seen some footage without narrating all over it.
