Well that police officer didn't know what he was talking about :D you can carry on as much as you like. If he comes back just say what are you gonna do about it, they can't do jack thats the answer :D

You can be arrested for breach of the peace - as the markers firing is louder than acceptable levels (whatever they are deemed to be at the time the man from the council comes around).

You can actually get an ASBO if you persist.

So it's not the firing of high velocity projectiles - it's the noise you make firing them that is the problem!

but dont most high-end markers make like no noice at all excluding teh shocker??? correct me if im terribly wrong
Are you talking about when they are sitting there or when they are being fired ???

All markers I've ever seen firing make a hell of a noise. Air rushing out of the barrel is very noisey. :confused:

Make like no noice compared to what, a proper gun? A pneumatic road drill?
They're all loud, including real high end guns like the ego. DM is quite quiet tho.

so then to some up the rules for practise in your own garden with markers and paintballs is similar to that of air rifles under 12fps apart from the age thing.

Cheers guys great help!!!

back on topic, theres loads of things you can train. Just filter out drills with people to shoot at and you have drills for
running and gunning
breakout accuracy
snapping
sliding / diving (work on your off hand with these)
connecting moves (sliding then getting shooting as quickly as possible)
you can also do agility and speed drills that's just to think about.
Most of these you can do without air/paint which is much safer

I think it shows determination to improve so ignore the big black woman and go for it.

I was firing my marker in my back garden and my neighbour put his head over the fence and asked if he could have a go. He came around and emptied a hopper into a bin and loved it.
He and his wife are ex traffic cops.:eek:
I think the answer is play ball with your neighbour and you shouldnt have any problems:p
