Airsoft
Battle Grounds Adventure Activities are proud to be the only UKARA registered airsoft site around Aberdeen City and Aberdeenshire and are home to a brilliant community of local players who join us for skirmishes every Sunday except last Sunday of the month during the Spring and Summer months and every second Sunday when it's chilly outside.
Whether you are a seasoned pro with your own AEG, sniper rifle or airsoft pistol or fancy trying airsoft for the first time - you'll receive a warm welcome at "The Bunker" at Battle Grounds. We have limited sets of rental equipment available for each shoot so please get in touch early to avoid disappointment.

Airsoft FAQ's
Q. Does it hurt?
Although the fps limit is higher than paintball, because the mass of the BB’s is significantly less it hurts much less than paintball.
Q. What time do the games run and how long does each game last?
Players start arriving from 08:30am and the day runs through until between 16:00 and 17:30 depending on light conditions. You’ll play a number of games throughout the day which each last between 20 and 40 minutes.
Q. What is the site FPS limit?
350 fps for AEG’s and 500 fps for sniper rifles with a 20m engagement distance. All guns will be chronographed at the start of the day and we also do spot checks. It is each player’s responsibility to make sure their gun is shooting at an appropriate fps level.
Q. What is the minimum age to play Airsoft?
You must be 12 years or older to play airsoft. All players under 18 must be signed in by a parent or guardian.
Q. Can I bring my own BB’s?
You’re more than welcome to take your own BB’s although we also stock a range of weights on site too.
Please remember they must be bio!
Q. I don’t have my own equipment - what are my options?
We offer rental equipment for £15.00 per day which includes a fully automatic AEG, magazine, full face mask and coveralls. In order to purchase a RIF (Replica Imitation Firearm) you must be UKARA registered. As the only UKARA registered site in Aberdeenshire you can gain you membership with us following attendance at 3 games within a 2 month period.
Q. How much are BB’s on the day?
You can buy 3,300 BIO BB’s for £15.00 on site.
Q. Do you sell pyrotechnics?
We have a great range of pyrotechnics on site including 90 second smoke grenades, mark 5 flash bangs and BB grenades. You must be 18 years or older to buy and use pyrotechnics on site.
Q. Do I need to wear protective gear?
The only key price of protective equipment we ask all players to wear is full face protection. This can be in the form of a full face mask or goggles and metal mesh or plastic mouth guard. Your safety is the single most important thing to us and we take the wearing of full face protection seriously – if other sites don’t care enough to make you cover up that’s their choice – but we do!
