Found an old gem clearing some stuff out yesterday... I picked this up from "Toy Station" in Richmond when I was in year 9, so 2003. They actually used to have a cabinet of Airsoft stuff at the back next to the counter, i remember a bunch of pistols and an M16A1 or VN. Me and three of my mates went in to look at them and they had a stack of these catalogs for anyone interested. This was probably a year or so before I actually bought my first springer.. a plastic M16 mashup (A1 sights, A2 handguard).
It's an interestingly structured catalogue, with not only some basic specs and facts about the sport, but an attempt to explain a bit about the real steel counterparts.
That and some very odd claims and statements throughout the catalogue about various RIFs - worth while reading through everything if you're so inclined.
(Looks like I can only upload 10 scans at a time so apologies upfront from the tri/quad posts incoming.)
Note the little range diagram bottom right here - .12 gram BBs were pretty common back then. And .25 was pretty much considered sniper rifle food
