How accurate are Airsoft Guns?

Wolf Armouries Airsoft Shop
Airsoft guns are not renowned for their accuracy. The guns fire a lightweight projectile (on average 0.2g) down a smooth barrel at a relatively low velocity (a standard Tokyo Marui AEG will fire at around 285fps). This means that bbs, when fired, can be inherently unstable and can be blown around in flight by air movement. Yet they are far more accurate than paintball guns, and far more consistent in terms of where the rounds go.

How do Airsoft guns operate?

Frequently Asked Questions at Strike Back Now
Airsoft gun can operate off one of any three principles. The most common and cost effective are our line of spring guns. Spring guns must be cocked before each shot, usually by racking the slide or cocking handle (rifles). Cocking the gun compresses a spring attached to a piston, when the trigger is pulled, the piston flies forward, compresses the air in the cylinder and fires the BB at an average velocity of 250 FPS. Most people start off with spring guns and often move up to gas blowback guns.

This is not a major concern of mine, but I did a quick search of the archives of the BYOAC message board. This is where a solution is most likely to appear if someone figures this out.
