Generally speaking they are similar concepts, we use toy guns to play war games. However Airsoft is growing bigger in Canada now because players tend to like more realism during their war games. Generally speaking if we compare airsoft rifles and paintball markers of the same price range, airsoft guns look more realistic and have greater effective range and accuracy over paintball markers. Airsoft BB’s do not burst so they do not leave a mark on your outfit once you are hit. Because of this we wear a lot of realistic gears and equipments, without the fear of them getting damaged by paint.
