Sorry, but I've been going to these links and trying to figure this [censored] out. What exactly is the appeal of this? Why would anyone play "airsoft" instead of paintball? As far as I can tell, the only pros of airsoft are the replica models and no worrying about stains from paint. The cons are more dangerous (?) and more chance of getting in legal trouble.

It boils down to the fact that most males think anything that shoots is cool. Anything you can shoot at someone else indoors, and not get hurt too bad is even cooler.
