United States......BITCHES!
LAW?

hey guys, I dunno how it goes in the UK but the Police in the U.S. are so damn dumb, the actually shot a kid who had a Tippmann
A-5 becasue he thought it was an MP5! WOW! I had no idea children could get Special Forces Weapons! But i cannot blame the cops, 1 shot from a gun is enough to kill him, and he puts his life on the line everyday, and I think the kids should put the guns down, or away when the cops come around. Most of all, I blame the dumb kid who dis-obeyed the cops, and pointed the gun @ the cops almost deserves to get shot, but the beliefs differ from person to person. I mena, In my backyard, 1 dat I just started shooting, and if you talk to your neihbors about it, they usually will deal with it, be civilized and they'll usually treat you with civility back. LOL, I sound like a damn motivational speaker. Anyway, nothing can be saud unless you're shooting the gun unsafely, and if you see any little kids around, dont shoot. @ my friends house, we were playing with his A-5, and a 3 yr. old girl came from under a small hole in the fence, and ran in our line of Fire, we almost shot her! :mad: :eek: :( It was then i figured, we should put the marker away until the girl goes to school. Anyway, watch your ass, just dont go crazy spraying, and dont shoot any trains, LOL, its funny @ first, then something is bound to fu** up! LMFAO! WOW, i gota stop talkin like im 60 yrs. old!:eek:

in terms of UK law, the classification of paintball markers as a weapon allows its use on your own property as long as the projectiles don't leave the property. (same as air rifles)
If you are using it within those rules your neighbours don't really have any right to stop you. But if they have genuine concerns you should discuss it with them and come to a mutually agreeable arrangement.

can't be within 50 yards of a public road either.


My favourite US/UK word switch is.

Fanny



Anyone see the Simpsons "Sideshow bobs last gleaming"? where he gets the nuke? they find those porn mags on the base and Krusty grabs one? look at the title..........."Granny Fanny" priceless.... funny for a whole other reason in the UK.

i don't think the noise is even that big of a problem! now Co2 does make a popping noise yes, but i do'nt think it's that big of a noise to really make a problem with the neighboors!

you're in the US though............different set of laws and regulations.
The police are hardly going to clamp down on paintballers in a country where firearms are readily available and commonplace. Over here it's different.
