We now have a full time airsoft airsmith at the Chesapeake store for all your repair and upgrade needs for airsoft AEG's and GBB's.
Blackjack Tactical in Newport News and Chesapeake is dedicated to providing high quality and affordable airsoft products to the Hampton Roads area inclucing Williamsburg, Gloucester, Newport News, Yorktown, Hampton, Smithfield, Norfolk, Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, Suffolk. Airsoft is an enjoyable hobby, but it can be very frustrating due to the many low quality airsoft products being sold on the internet. We have dedicated ourselves to only selling quality airsoft products that hold up on the playing field and can be repaired by our technicians. The majority of AEG's we sell are Echo 1, JG, Dboys, SRC, VFC, KWA and Classic Army. KWA, Y&P and WE are the primary gas guns we sell. We limit ourselves to selling the UTG L96 and Classic Army M24 sniper rifles, less expensive sniper rifles just don't hold up.
The majority of issues we have with airsoft guns that come in the shop for repair are caused by use of poor quality airsoft bb's. Normally they are bargain basement .12bb with seams that cause their guns to jam up. It's very important to understand that these poor quality bb's will not only make your airsoft gun shoot poorly it may permenantly damage your hop up bucking or worse yet damage your gear box. Generally if you go with .2g bb's your AEG or gas pistol will work fine.
Airsoft scene in Hampton Roads: Styles of play in this area break down into 3 different classes. back yard games, organized fields and milsim.
Backyard games: The majority of airsoft players in this class they either have a large back yard, privately owned land or vacant property. It is very important for these players to keep their orange tips on their airsoft guns. Chances of encountering law enforcement is rather hight and you don't want to get shot by an over reacting police officer who thinks he has encountered a criminal with an assult rifle..
