i know i have a hard enough time tell the nieghbors how this big ugly thing shoots paintballs and that we arnt government commandos or terrorist, all with out having a 1-1 scale realistic gun.... but i would like a gas powered USP to shoot in the yard.

I swear there is always something happining on Mockingbird Lane...usually a wreck, but if you live in DFW you know what im talking about.....

Those kid's just are not smart- airsoft is actually a lot of fun (in my opinion, more fun than paintball) as long as you take precautions. Just like paintball, only more so since as stated they are nearly indistuingishable from real guns.

[Archangel Damien]

what kind of idiot lets there kids run around in the street with life like replicas of hand guns

[FutureMagOwner]

i believe that said they were wearing the eye goggle things your supposed to wear for air soft but playinmg in the streets aint that smart

[Archangel Damien]

great lot of good the eye protection will do if the police start shooting

[yeahthatsme]

i wouldnt letting my kids play with airsoft guns. except i woul spray all of them orange or hot pink or some other bright color so that the cops dont get confused.

[sniper1rfa]

actually, if one of the cops like small caliber rounds, you could get lucky. i shot one of my old masks with a .22 pistol and it stopped the bullet. it cracked and melted a little, but it stopped it.

from about 40 ft away btw.

Airsoft is quite fun, nothing is really wrong with playing in the streets either. The bb's wont damage anything, don't really hurt either, not even at close range.

.22's

I don't know of any cops out there thay carry a .22... That mask wouldn't stop a 9mm.

Airsoft is extremely fun, but that kids parents are tards'. "Hmm it looks real, now lets go have the kdis runa round in the streets with em." I play waaay out in the woods.

I've played on a middle school playground- tons of fun, but stupid. I made sure to do it when there was little chance of getting in trouble (hopefully) and nothing bad came of it.

i thought thermal paintball lenses were tested to withstand the impact of a 9mm?
