When buying a Cheap BB gun, Hear are a few things to consider:

Some people say to us what's the difference between "bb guns" and airsoft guns? well in the UK a bb gun and an airsoft gun is the same thing, (in america a bb gun is what we call in the uk an air gun or an air rifle) generally talking newcomers to the sport of airsoft call airsoft guns "bb guns" and bb guns will be mostly the cheap bb guns we are talking about in this article that are made in two tone blue etc and you don't need a valid defence to buy one, while airsoft guns are normally black in colour and as they are realistic you will need a valid defence to buy one. 

1. Quality: Make sure the bb gun is well made and has a solid construction; metal bb guns are strong, but some well-made plastic bbguns can sometimes be more reliable.  

2. Power/FPS (Feet Per Second): look to see if the bb gun has a suitable FPS for what you want to do with it; if you want to go to an airsoft skirmish event, the bb guns on this page will not be powerful enough as a primary weapon, to skirmish you will need an AEG shooting around 300 to 350fps, all of the bb guns on this page are suitable for target practice and at home back yard games.

3. Power source: BB guns can be powered by spring, battery, or gas. Each type has its own advantages and disadvantages, do a little research and think about what you want the gun to do and then decide what the best bb gun is for your needs.

4. Brand: Check the brand of the bb gun to ensure that it is reputable and known for producing good bb guns.

5. Reviews: Read customer reviews to get an idea of the gun's performance, and you can see if there have been any other issues that other buyers have had.

6. Price: Compare prices from multiple retailers to ensure you are getting the best deal possible. Here at bbguns4less we price-match any other shop or website, so if, in the unlikely event, you find it cheaper, let us know, and we will beat the price.

BB Gun Ammunition

After you have selected the bb guns you want, you will need to buy the correct ammo for it.

In most cases, you will get some cheap bb pellets with the bb gun, but they can be of low quality, and we do suggest you buy some good quality bb pellets.

Good pellets can improve your bb guns range, accuracy and power, and stop your bb gun from getting jammed.

For more details on the best bb pellets to buy, see our bb pellet buying guide.

Airsoft face masks & Protection

When playing with BB guns, it is vital to wear some kind of protective gear and if you are under 18 we recommend one of our full face masks.

• Eye protection: BB gun pellets can travel at high speeds and can cause injury if they hit you in the eye's. Airsoft Goggles at a minimum or an airsoft mask that covers the full face are highly recommended.

• Head protection: a helmet is not essential, but even a simple baseball cap can reduce the sting from a bb pellet.

• Body protection: A thick long-sleeved shirt, pants, and gloves are recommended to protect the skin from BBs.

• Foot protection: Closed-toe shoes, as it can still hurt like hell when you get shot in the foot.

It's also important to remember that different airsoft gun game sites may have their own rules or requirements for protective gear, especially for those under 18s, so check with the game site before going to an organised event.

BB Gun Targets

if you are on a budget and you don't want to spend much, you could check out the free downloadable printout bb gun targets page on the website; this is a great place to visit as here we have over free targets that you can print on demand when printed they work best when stuck to a cardboard box.

How old do I need to be to buy a bb gun

there is no legal age to buy a two-tone bb gun as it's classed as an unrealistic imitation firearm, but we recommend that all buyers be over 18 years old and that anyone using a bb gun have parental supervision at all times.
