Looking for an airsoft shop in Kent you can actually walk into? You have found it. Platoon Stores has supplied Kent’s airsoft community since 2006, nearly 20 years of gearing up players, from their very first AEG to a fully upgraded loadout.
We are based on the Medway City Estate in Rochester, with a proper showroom where you can handle the kit before you buy, an in-house workshop for repairs and upgrades, and a mobile shop that turns up at Kent airsoft sites most weekends. We are not a warehouse with a website, we are players who run a shop.
Why players across Kent choose Platoon Stores
- A real showroom. Come and hold the gun, feel the weight, check the fit of a plate carrier. You cannot do that with a national online-only retailer.
- In-house repairs and servicing. When your AEG stops firing mid-season, we fix it here, we do not post it off. Book a repair or service.
- Kent’s only authorised 5.11 Tactical retailer. The full 5.11 range, in-store, in Kent. Browse 5.11 Tactical.
- We are out at the sites. Our mobile shop attends Kent airsoft sites at weekends, so you can grab gas, BBs or a spare mag without leaving the game. See where to play in Kent.
- Airsoft and shooting sports under one roof. As a licensed retailer we also stock UK-legal air rifles and airguns. Explore air rifles.
- An indoor range on site. Try a gun, zero an optic or test an upgrade in Rochester before you take it to a game. See how the indoor range works.
What we stock
Whether you are picking up your first rifle or hunting a specific upgrade part, the range covers it:
- Airsoft guns, AEG rifles, gas blowback pistols, snipers and support guns. Shop rifles and pistols.

Can you repair my airsoft gun?
Yes. Our in-house Rochester workshop services and upgrades every platform, AEG, gas and HPA. See our repair and servicing page.
Do you deliver, or is it collection only?
Both. We ship UK-wide, offer Click & Collect from the Rochester showroom, and bring our mobile shop to Kent airsoft sites most weekends.
Buying an air rifle or a realistic imitation firearm? Those cannot be posted, so you pay online to reserve one and collect it here with photo ID. Here is how Reserve and Collect works.
