Tokyo Marui was the first company to introduce airsoft guns powered solely by electric motor gearbox-driven spring-piston assembly in 1992, which they called "automatic electric gun" (AEG). This compact air pump system was implemented in their first battery-powered automatic firing replica, the FAMAS F1 .
Spring-powered airsoft guns (or "air-cocking guns" as called by Tokyo Marui) are single-shot devices that use the elastic potential energy stored within a compressed coil spring to drive a piston air pump, which is released upon trigger-pull and rapidly pressurizes the air within the pump cylinder to in turn "blow" pellets down the gun barrel.
Tokyo Marui also produced some plastic modelgun kits in 80s-90s. Both Western Arms and Tokyo Marui produce airsoft only at present. Asahi Firearms produced modelguns in 80s-90s. [6] Rokkaku is famous in its "ROCKEN" brand brass luxury modelgun though only produced in very small quantity.
Airsoft, also known as survival game (Japanese: サバイバルゲーム, romanized: sabaibaru gēmu) in Japan where it was popular, is a team-based shooting game in which participants eliminate opposing players out of play by shooting them with spherical plastic projectiles shot from airsoft guns.
Airsoft pellets (known as BBs) are spherical projectiles used by airsoft guns. Typically made of plastic , [ 1 ] they usually measure around 6 mm (0.24 in) in diameter (though selective models use 8 mm), [ 1 ] and weigh 0.20–0.40 g (3.1–6.2 gr), with the most common weights being 0.20 g and 0.25 g, while 0.28 g, 0.30 g, 0.32 g and 0.40 g ...
Owners of the original version (v.1) of the Big Bear experienced problems with its differential gears. This kit used the same gearboxes and gears as the Marui Jeep CJ (MT-59-RC-7) and the Marui Toyota Landcruiser (MT-59-RC-8) kits and consisted of 2 large bevel gears, and a gear set of 48 pitch metric. This proved to be a major problem for the ...

In 1992, they made the first "clone" AEG, or automatic electric gun. They referred to the Marui Famas gearbox, and made the Academy L85. This gun used to have no hop-up (until very recently when one with a fixed hop-up was made), and due to Korean laws on airsoft gun power, the gun's velocity is 200 ft/s (61 m/s) with .2 gram BBs.
