Get up close and personal with a BB shotgun for maximum impact in short range airsoft situations.
An airsoft shotgun is a great choice as either a main firearm or a sidearm. They’re designed for close quarters combat situations, and they offer high power at a reduced range.
BB shotguns come in both single-shot and cluster shot versions, so you can decide whether you want to maintain pinpoint accuracy or spread your shots. You can also choose from pump-action, sawn-off, and double-barrelled BB guns, depending on which type you prefer.
Our airsoft shotguns are mostly spring powered, offering good power and range. Some have pistol grips while others will be full stock, and they’re all available in our two-tone paint job. From the popular M309 shotgun to the A&K M870, there are plenty of options to choose from.

Airsoft BB Shotguns
Automatic electric shotguns use batteries to power their motors and have high accuracy. Bear in mind, however, that electric airsoft guns are complex and can require more frequent maintenance than other types of airsoft shotgun.
Spring airsoft shotguns use tension springs to fire BBs, and their manual operation gives users complete control over their weapon. They’re relatively inexpensive compared to gas and electric powered airsoft guns, and require less maintenance, making them for beginners.
Finally, gas-powered airsoft shotguns release green gas at extremely high pressure to fire BBs. They usually require heavier maintenance than the previous two types.
Load your airsoft shotgun by opening the latch in front of the trigger and sliding in your shotgun shells. Close the latch, pump, and fire!
The best airsoft shotgun for you comes down to personal preference. Prefer manual control over your firearm? Go for a spring-powered shotgun. If you’re looking for increased FPS, electric or gas-powered shotguns are your best bet.
Airsoft manufacturers are qualified technicians that work with specialist equipment to build their BB guns - assembling the components at home rarely works and carries several safety risks. What’s more, the vast majority of custom-built airsoft shotguns are banned at most UK skirmish sites.
