The Versatile Airsoft Mini-gun: Is It Right For You?

Aside from standard guns like assault rifle, machine gun

, and sniper, an Airsoft mini-gun is another interesting addition, either to your weaponry for Airsoft battles or to your Airsoft artillery collection. This gun resembles the barrel-style machine guns used by soldiers in real battles, providing the same effect, feel, and action.

The very first few Airsoft mini-guns, which could fire 6mm plastic pellets, were manufactured by Asahi Firearms Co. back in the early 90s. Then called Asahi mini-guns, Airsoft mini-guns looked like the M134 used by real-life soldiers. They had complex designs and were powered by small DC batteries. The huge benefits and many interesting features they had made them so popular that many manufacturers have also started to make their own versions of Airsoft mini-guns. Later versions of Airsoft mini-guns are already powered by electric motor instead of DC batteries.

The most notable feature of Airsoft mini-guns is their size and weight. They may be called mini-guns, but they are relatively large and heavy that a person will sure find it hard to carry and handle even one Airsoft mini-gun. These mini-guns are instead mounted on a tripod to provide players convenience and ease in use. Compared to standard types of war equipment, Airsoft mini-guns have better fire rates. In fact, these mini-guns are able to release a fire rate of more than 3,000 rounds per minute.

Also called Gatling guns or chain guns, Airsoft mini-guns are driven by an electric motor, which regularly and constantly feeds ammunition into the mini-guns chamber and continuously rotates the barrels, providing excellent firing mechanism. Because of their outstanding rate of fire, these mini-guns are primarily used for spraying bullets at enemies. Another remarkable feature of Airsoft mini-guns is its ability to shoot at various distances. They can shoot from 200 fps to 700 fps. Setting up a few of these mini-guns to guard your team is sure to make you nearly impossible to defeat.

With the many interesting features and benefits that Airsoft mini-guns provide, its quite sad to know that only a few of these beauties are manufactured nowadays. For instance, one of todays leading manufacturer, Pipers Precision Products, only have to types of Airsoft mini-guns in production: Venom and M134-A2. Venom is a compact Airsoft mini-gun that can fire at a cyclic rate of 75 rounds per second and at 350 fps. The M134-A2, on the other hand, is manufactured after the earlier type of M134 mini-gun, but is remarkable for its enhanced designs. It can fire at a cyclic rate of 42 rounds per second and at a distance of between 280 fps and 600 fps. The M134-A2 is able to fire plastic pellets and steel BBs.

The price of an Airsoft mini-gun generally starts from $4,500 to $6,000. Many, however, especially artillery collectors, are not at all intimated by such an enormous price. For these individuals, having this type of mini-gun in their collection can prove to be great investments. These can help them make a lot of money, especially in the future when Airsoft mini-guns are predicted to be considered merely collectible items instead of important equipment for Airsoft battles.
