Airsoft in Korea.

One of my YouTube subscribers from South Korea messaged me and we had a chat. Turns out the FPS limit there is 150 FPS or something crazy like that, so I don't think the airsoft industry is exactly booming.

 

Just something to keep in mind. You don't want to get caught with a hot airsoft gun in Korea :P (?)

Republic of Korea[edit]

In the Republic of Korea, airsoft guns belong in two categories. One category is made up of toys and the other is made up of similar firearms. According to the safety standards of manufacturing goods which are targeted by safety certicifications, airsoft guns for those under 20 years old are under 0.14J, and for those above 20 years are under 0.2J (under 148 fps with 0.2g bb's). Airsoft guns must have orange tips which can not detach. If one doesn't follow that rule, the airsoft guns are regarded as similar firearms.
