ARE YOU LOCAL? PLAY AT FAF AIRSOFT!

Fox Airsoft has an interesting story that all began with a group of teenagers and young adults who played airsoft in the woods out here in Colorado, long before airsoft existed as we know it today. Airsoft as it was 20 years ago was a very underground sport that began to gain notice at a time when the internet was growing as well.

At the early beginnings of airsoft in the United States, people who were interested had very little support stateside in the way of technical knowledge or places to shop, let alone legal sanctioned fields to play at. Players who were interested in airsoft were paying a premium for airsoft guns which were largely plastic that did not shoot that hard and were very expensive to upgrade. A typical AEG costs 3-4x what you pay for today for an equivalent gun. All your shopping was pretty much done over the internet where you imported your guns from overseas and hoped and prayed that you didn't get ripped off our your airsoft gun confiscated by customs. You had to invest a fair bit of money into just the guns themselves. Since these guns have no support from the manufacturer stateside, you were pretty much relegated to servicing the guns yourself or relying on a small pool of people who had the knowledge. Youtube and Facebook didn't exist yet so we relied on message boards to get help.

As airsoft grew in popularity worldwide, more manufacturers started to pop up giving you options with more competitive pricing. Soon US based distributors started to appear, headed by players turned business people who were as passionate about the sport as we were as players. This was when airsoft started gaining legitimacy and you could actually get products that were worthwhile and get into the sport and still have it backed by a warranty for the first time. The epicenter of where the airsoft industry was growing was in California.

Over here in Colorado in the early 2000's, airsoft was very much a niche sport. You could say it was on the fringe even. Small groups of people got together and built a common interest. Games would be played either on private land or in places out of the public eye. Knowledge of the games was underground so you really had to get to know people to be invited. You couldn't just pass by on the street and see what was going on and walk on to a field the way you might see happening today.

A small group of friends who formed the team Swamp Fox 12 would frequent or host much of the games in the area with a desire to train and build the airsoft community. A retail store in Colorado that sells airsoft goods did not exist yet and it was at this point a light bulb went off and the team decided to pitch in and go into business together by forming Fox Airsoft. So with just a pocket full of cash and a commitment to each other, Fox Airsoft was started.

The early years were simple enough. The guys would sell supplies and special order things people requested out of the back of a Jeep. As things progressed, Fox Airsoft moved into a tiny retail space with a couple guys working at odd hours in between their real jobs and school. Airsoft at this point was picking up in popularity and the local games that were being hosted got bigger and better. As Fox Airsoft grew, the commitment to grow airsoft remained the same and has been the mission ever since. As players, Swamp Fox continued to push their training and reaffirmed their personal commitments to the team. This could be seen through their playstyle as Swamp Fox took to major events nationwide and left an impression.

Although some of the original founding Swamp Fox members have moved on from airsoft to focus on their personal lives, a few people from that team still exist as the leadership and backbone of Fox Airsoft.

Awesome company and products. Received sooner than projected from Colorado and I'm in California. Less than 2 days from placing order to receiving it. . Everything shipped as ordered . Incredible selection and great price... Did my homework and eventually came back to them. I'm glad I did. My squad will be ordering and I be ordering more gear as well.
