The Law:
There are some legal requirements to owning and using an airgun in the UK. They are there to ensure safety and most of them are fairly obvious. For details of the legislation in countries other than the UK please contact your local shooting association or police force.
Airguns do not require a licence unless they are over the UK legal limit of 12ft.lbs muzzle energy for rifles and 6 ft.lbs muzzle energy for pistols. Providing you are within the age requirements for ownership listed below almost anybody can own one.
Owning and using a Paintball gun:
Young people under 14.
If you are under 14 years old you cannot buy, hire, be given or own an airgun or airgun ammunition. You can however use an airgun if:
you are supervised by someone over 21; and
you do not shoot beyond the boundaries of where you are using it; or
you are a member of an approved club and you are using it for target practice at that club; or
you are using an airgun at a shooting gallery for airguns or miniature rifles.
Young people between 14 and 17.
If you are between 14 and 17 years old, you can be given or lent an airgun or ammunition but you cannot buy or hire them yourself. You can however:
carry an air rifle (but not an air pistol) in a public place as long as it is covered
with a securely fastened gun cover that prevents it from being fired;
use an airgun for target practice at an approved club if you are a member of that club; and
use an airgun at a gallery for airguns and miniature rifles.
