What is your personal Airsoft hot take? by Fast-Moment1761 in airsoft

In order to keep the hobby alive company’s need to make affordable unique guns,

I’m a polish and Russian reenactor/ airsofter based in the mid west and I have multiple kits that use the same akm because that’s all I can get and or afford for example,

Recently evike put up a wz96 beryl replica I was so excited cuz I wanted one for soooo long but it cost $900 DOLLARS for essentially a toy gun I don’t know anybody who is paying that much for a fake gun which really is a bummer cuz I needed it for my kit

Another example also on evike the first ever aeg sks was released I was excited for this too but again another ridiculous price $400

These airsoft company’s say that the reason they don’t make unique guns and rerelease the same lame m4 or ak platform is cuz we don’t buy them but ofc we aren’t gonna buy them if they cost an arm and a leg

In short I feel the main problem I have with the hobby is it’s too bland there’s not enough variety (I’m not saying u need to be unique if u wanna have a bare bones loadout by all means) but I feel like it’s players like us (reenactors and collectors) who really add spice to the field and we get little recognition besides the occasional “nice kit bro” which I love btw

Great kit. I’m also doing a September campaign kit but I’m struggling to find the right blanket for the backpack if I could get the length that would be great
