started playing airsoft in 1993 when aeg from marui landed in our shores, back then it was gas guns that ruled with expansion chambers (FLON). brands that dominated were kokusai, maruzen, etc with psi readings rather than fps. Marui was a new player back then and their aeg's were laughed at for having low psi/fps. Systema did not exist yet then.. Laid low for a few years and got into practical shooting then went back to airsoft..
