Airsoft Shot Timer is a free timer app built for airsoft players and Action Air shooters. Hardware shot timers often fail to pick up the low report of BB guns β this app is tuned specifically for gas blowback and AEG shot signatures, tracking everything from your draw to every split time. The blog below covers IPSC/IDPA training, airsoft gear, and tactics. Pair the drills with the app and watch your times drop.
