AKMS Replica (ELMS Essential)

In Germany, the Weapons Act governs the sale and use of Airsoft guns:

• Fully automatic Airsoft pistols with a muzzle energy up to 0.5 joules can be purchased by individuals 14 years of age or older. (please add our downgrade optional service for Germany).
• Handguns and rifles exceeding 0.5 joules must be semi-automatic (one shot per trigger pull) and require the buyer to be at least 18 years old. We'll ask for age verification during your online purchase.
• Age verification is done online before completing your order. If the recipient is different from the person placing the order, we'll also need their age verification.
• Carrying Airsoft guns in public is generally prohibited, even if they're not readily visible. Exceptions exist with a valid firearms license, but this only applies to handguns and semi-automatic rifles.
• Full Auto Airsoft guns exceeding 0.5 joules are considered firearms under the Weapons Act. Carrying them without a valid firearms license (with the "F in a pentagon" marking) is an administrative offense.
• Transporting Airsoft guns requires them to be unloaded, secured, and in a closed container.
• Using Airsoft guns is permitted on private property (with the owner's consent) and designated Airsoft fields.

Please ensure you comply with these regulations when purchasing and using Airsoft guns in Germany.
