- I'm quite certain that there is a wealth of information regarding the airsoft industry and its relationship to the concept of the right to repair, but I'm not sure where to find information on why certain brands are no longer sold internationally. If I had to guess the reason, it is likely because IP rights restrict the trade dress of certain guns—that is, actual firearms companies objected to toys representing the silhouette of their firearms but that is speculation.

- Some countries such as Australia have it as Illegal (gel blasters on the other hand are legal to my understanding) while states such as New York restrict how airsoft guns are sold on marketplaces such as Amazon [1]. IP might have something to do with it, but credible sources would be needed. Mr Pollo (talk) 13:22, 26 March 2026 (UTC)
