Airsoft was created and marketed in Hong Kong, China and Japan in the late 1970s, due to civilian ownership of firearms being banned. Airsoft was used to closely emulate real guns. Since the mid 1980s, airsoft guns have been adapted with a purely recreational application in mind, and the hobby is enjoyed by all ages. Most airsoft guns are produced in China and Japan, while some are also produced in the United States and Taiwan.
