over 18 for air fills..
- Thread starter ChiZZerS
- Start date
doesnt bother me that much, means i dont have to fill mine anymore, just get one of the team to do it lol, time for me to relax 
in all fairness what would be good is if they did a "CAFT" (compressed Air Filling Training) certificate thingy. like a drivers licence. Air filling companies could then make a little more money out of it hehe. . if you wanna fill you must attend like a course in filling. charge say a 5er per person to do the course and applicants must fill out a application form, and provide an passport sized photo. the course can then be run on tourny event days or something. then the air suppliers can make, a photo card which must be presented with the valid and in test tank. its just a rough diamond but i beleive its a good idea? this way 16+ can fill safely because they have passed the course? Air companies win cause they can charge for the course as well as the supply for air to tourny organisers, insurance can win because of the benefits of trained personell (less accidents etc) and all the players can win as well, young (no one blows their leg off and they are allowed to fill if they are over 16.) and old (no one blows their leg off and they dont have to fill the younger players bottles?)
Is there a down side to this?

I'm afraid that idea would only work if all the fill rigs used around the country worked in exactly the same way, which I'm pretty sure they don't.
Plus there would be a problem for any overseas teams attending big events in this country, as they wouldn't have had the chance to get certified

On the game day registration. would only need to be a half hour + course. let it take place before the compys are turned on. only problem is for those that have no common understanding of english... or what we like to think is englishLiz said:
. if it is posted up on websites and is made common knowledge. and are there different ways that air is pumped? i mean ok on training sites it will be different. but for tournies surely it would make things safer? and what different companies are there that supply air? HPAC and....? im sure that air fill stations are managed the same way on european tournament series right? thankyou for your comment. (hopefully another side to this rough diamond polished off).
i dunno about you but niether my pints, nor my **** are very dangerous. Maybe if you struggle to keep your rear in control you shouldnt drink pints... and you should stay away from those takeaways!Baca Loco said:

TBH I wouldn't trust either of you to fill a tank, you can't even be trusted with the English Language***tom*** said:
Do they not have SPAG any more? I'm not THAT old!!!
You DO have to be 18 or over to buy a marker, or any air rifle for that matter.Dskize said:
You may, however, receive an air rifle (Markers included) when you are 16 or over as a gift from somebody who is 21 or over.
AFAIK.
