Top 5 Gel Blasters for Beginners

Looking for gel blasters in Australia? You’re not the only one. Gel blasters are the new must-have toy gun, with thousands of people investing in gel blasters to have fun competitions with their family and friends. 


If you’ve ever tried the game, then you’ll already know how much fun it is. Think of it as a slightly safer, more environmentally friendly, and less staining version of paintball. But of course, if you’re going to play a round privately (rather than going to a commercial site to play), then you’ll need some equipment. In truth, the market for gel blasters is large — there’s no upper limit to how powerful and fun these toy guns can be! But if you’re in the early stages of your gel blasting career, then you’ll want a beginner-friendly gel blaster.


In this blog, we’ll run through some of the best gel blasters Australia for newcomers to the activity. Rest assured that though these toy guns are novice-friendly, they still pack a powerful punch and very much look the part.

SKD M1911 Gel Blaster

Buying a beginner gel blaster doesn’t mean that you have to miss out on some of the features that you’ll find on more advanced gel blasters. After all, you’ll likely use your gel blaster a lot, so it needs to be both beginner-friendly and offer some features that’ll help to make it an engagement tool later down the line.


For these purposes, we have to recommend the SKD M1911 Gel Blaster. This cool-looking gel blaster features a hopper-fed design, which means the balls are automatically fed by a funnel, which allows for ease of play that newcomers to the activity will appreciate. It’s also got a high gel ball capacity and is fully automatic, with an easy on/off button. In other words, it has basically everything that a newcomer would like. The box comes jam-packed with everything you need to be up and running — and doing battle — in no time at all.

It offers fantastic value for money and though you’ll be able to use this gel blaster even as a newcomer, it offers enough that’ll ensure you’re happy to continue using it into the future.


It comes with a host of awesome features, such as the option between drum mag and single mag, front and rear iron sights, and fast FUll auto shooting. As we said, it's a powerful gel blaster.
