Airsoft at Christmas: Do Airsoft Guns make good gifts?
Can I buy an Airsoft gun as a gift?
Yes! An Airsoft gun makes a great gift, as long as the person receiving the gift is either 18+ or has parental permission. If you are purchasing an Airsoft gun for a young family member or you are brand new to Airsoft, we recommend giving our Is Airsoft Safe? article to put your mind at ease.
It is important to remember, even if the person you are buying for has a specific defence i.e. a UKARA membership, the person making the purchase must still have a specific defence to order the Airsoft gun in realistic colours.
Otherwise, we can offer our two-tone paint service which allows those without a specific defence to purchase Airsoft guns in non-realistic colours. This service involves disassembly, painting, curing time and reassembly of the gun, and can take up to 8 days to complete so please ensure you order in advance to be certain the gun is delivered before Christmas!
We recommend getting ahead of the game and getting your two-tone order in as soon as you can to avoid the rush as we approach the big day. Last order dates for Two-tone are to be announced, and while you still have plenty of time, we all know how time flies this time of year!
If you need a last-minute Christmas Airsoft gift, check out our Pre two-tones. These are finished in VCRA-compliant colour schemes straight from the factory. Fortunately, those of us who like a photo finish are covered with our selection of Pre Two-Tone Airsoft replicas which are ready for immediate dispatch, with no need to wait for the paint to dry!
What is a good Airsoft gift for Christmas?
Airsofters are a picky bunch, if they haven’t specifically told you what they want we’d be surprised! If you are in doubt about what that Airsofter in your life might want we have written an article featuring this year's Top Airsoft Gifts that would make great stocking fillers, from tactical gear to gun bags and accessories.
