Aye, had me fooled. I was so swept up in it I didn't know for a long time they were Airsoft. At a shoe string budget of, what, 2 million dollars, it can be excused I guess. But given that TWD has a budget of around that per episode, plus access to what looks like real firearms (or decommissioned/blank adapted ones anyway), you would have thought the sfx and general realism of the gunfights would be better (hell, I could do a better job storyboarding and using After Effects, gimme a job, AMC!).
