Best Beginner Airsoft Guns

If you have a younger sibling or child who wants to get into Airsoft but they aren't yet old enough for the real deal, this LPEG is ideal to help them learn the ropes! The Umarex H&K HK416 CQB Low Power Electric Gun is designed to cater to the younger market, offering a super lightweight electric powered Airsoft gun which runs at around half the muzzle energy of standard AEG, making it safer and less painful to get hit by but just as fun to use as the full-fat skirmishable models.

Compatibility-wise, this HK416 can accept standard Airsoft AEG magazines and 8.4V NiMh batteries with mini-Tamiya connectors, but both the externals and internals are proprietary and not compatible with standard AEG parts. The good news is that the 20mm Picatinny rails on the receiver and handguard can accept most Airsoft 20mm Picatinny accessories, meaning you can mount a red dot sight and a grip to give this low-cost, low-power, high-fun HK416 the elite look.

Based on the EU Series of pistols this replica is part of the VORSK EU range of pistols which are inspired by the finest and most advanced modern combat and competitive pistol designs. Built and designed with input from leading Airsoft players and manufacturers these pistols are the cream of the crop, and come in a multitude of designs with styles to suit every player's taste. This variation of the VORSK G-Series range is based on the G17 and features a vented slide, as well as being Pre-Two Tone Blue from the factory; meaning no waiting for paint to dry. It can dispatch immediately, and without a defence, provided they're available to buy.

Suppose you're looking for an advanced, compact AEG with plenty of features for its relatively low price. In that case, the Delta Armory DA-B03-EGL BRAVO™ SilentOps CQB M4/AR-15 AEG is probably the finest option out there currently! This Delta Armory rifle boasts an aluminium micro suppressor, CNC aluminium quad-railed handguard, and Delta's unique receiver constructed from high-density polymer and the superb Delta Armory EAGLE™ battery stock.

Inside, the DA-B03 is very well equipped for the price, boasting a 6.03mm tightbore inner barrel, rotary HOP-up unit and a reinforced version 2 gearbox equipped with a quick change spring guide, 7mm ball bearing bushings and an SHS piston and tappet plate. All of the internals are Tokyo Marui version 2 gearbox spec and compatible with aftermarket upgrades, meaning you can push the performance up even further down the line if you feel the need.

The EAGLE™ MOSFET is the star of the show, offering a range of programmable firing modes such as 3 or 5-round burst mode, binary trigger, sniper delay, AUG mode, semi-auto only and precocking. The ability to program this wide variety of modes using the trigger and selector of the gun itself gives the DA-B03-EGL the edge over practically any other platform in this price range.
