Air guns have been used to hunt for 500 years. Air gun designs have improved in the last five years, especially with the new Airsoft models from Japan. The original air guns employed a pump reservoir in the rifle’s butt. It operated the firing mechanism. Today’s air guns are more powerful with a pneumatic and a compressed air version. The introduction of the air canister increased the velocity without reducing the air rifle’s unmatched reputation for accuracy.
