They must also be able to function in remote, ambiguous and complex environments with limited support. “The new MARSOC Marines Airsoft products exude the elite characteristics of the U.S. Marine Corps Forces Special Operations Command,” says Dolci. “The U.S. Marine Corps is careful with its licensing agreements. They are designed to cultivate goodwill, promote a positive public image, and assist with recruiting. Crosman is committed to those same goals in designing, manufacturing and marketing the very best in its new MARSOC Marines Airsoft line,” he said.
