Well protesters were still toying with them , trying to take thier counter wieght off and trying to snatch thier service rifle so intimidation didn't work out proper riot control gear would have worked betterThe only reason I could think of for an SMU to do crowd control is this. They knowingly brought Sim weapons as their purpose was intimidation. Not even 1% of the crowd would be able to figure out that the weapons had no live ammo in them.
that was indeed a spectacular failure.
There is conscription in south korea and airsoft larping as some hyper specific era JSOC unit is a big thing there, i believe that's why the people were toying with the soldiers.The only reason I could think of for an SMU to do crowd control is this.

Yup. One Stun grenade for dispersal and everyone would take it seriously and fall in line.
Japan and Korea are really big in Airsoft
Even Taiwan too
And then here are we ......
I think airsoft is expensive but worth it
The south east asian are also catching up , but Japan is on whole another level
We have people here having expensive hobbies I am sure if Airsoft was an actual thing alot of people will get intrested who can afford it even for Larping it's cool af rich people love that shit
Indonasia, Vietnam and Thailand are happy shooting real aks down the range even m4s while Vietnamese are shooting rocket launchers too.
I think if airsoft becomes a thing here avaiblity of tactical kit will increase and cost will decrease. But I think rich people are to lazy or ignorant on airsoft and tactical knowledge
Ofc price will decrease a bit with a better market and companies like Olive planet,AT,and Gearsmith will have more market to sell to now only military,hikers and a few adventure seekers are their customers
