back garden paintball field, sort of

[plurgh]

not sure this is the best place to but this so move if not.

i want to be able to play i my garden and its a resanable size so i had the idea of buying some nets, which theres ones i can use on ebay. This way i can shoot without woring about going into naeighbours gardens or the horse field be hind me. all i need is some poles i can use to keep the nets up which is difficult to find(any ideas where?). then i just need to make a few bunkers out of spear wood. this whole thing i could take down when not in use, just take out the pole, role up the net and move the bunkers. it wont be big but will be big enogh for me and my friend to practice on each other.

what are your thoughts on this and how insane does it make me sound?

also any one know where i can buy an air compressor to fill the bottel? this way i wont have the hastle of finding somewhere miles away like a diving shop or something.

Not sure on the legal aspect from playing in your back garden but an half decent air compresser costs between £1000 - £4500.
I would presume after all the financial outlay getting everything you would require it would probably cheaper to just play at your local site.

i'm sure i heard its legal to fire your gun in your garden and it will be containded by the nets to my garden but i can always dubble cheak i guess. the nettings i can get for cheap not sure about the poles tho. i also have a decent amont of spare wood and a few plastic barrels i can use for bunkers so that bit will cost nothing.

air compresser sounds a lot much if thats the price. my just have to find a dive shop and get an adaptor for the tank or something then.

You have to ask

Back Garden paintballing

Even if you are allowed to do it, one complaint from neighbours re- noise the whole thing could be blown way out of proportion - stick to using your local fields unless you live on a very big farm.

but i can always dubble cheak i guess.

I'd get a spell checker first.

i would go ask my surounding neigbours if they dont mind and ensure them its legal and i wont be shooting onto their property and if it did get to loud or much i would stop. i live in a small village so theres not many people around my house and i wont be doing it at night or anything. i dont see it as being worse than target shooting with an air rifle. it would only be to practice the odd move or shooting technique raerly, not full on battles all the time

Just a heads up.....

Dont forget to get some form of paintball related insurance as well,if you where to accidentally hurt an innocent bystander etc... you would probably get sued in court...
