    Well, since Tom is redoing AO, now would be a time to add this to the want list of stuff.

    Weird that just as I spend too much money getting my effing mag to shoot again, and this place gets ready for some rejuvenation. It's exciting!

    While I am now technically an adult, I do still slightly miss my childhood days of AO Chat, trolling the fun conservatives and calling Thordic a jerk.

    Yeah, Freedy 500 is correct. In Hong Kong, they classify anything that is able to deliver a projectile with a force more than 2 Joules as a firearm. A 68 cal paintball would have to be flying somewhere like 160 FPS or below to be legal here. Some people can probably throw a paintball faster then that. Airsoft, on the other hand, is legal because the plastic BBs they shoot are so light.

    This is a total bummer.
    Would this also go for .50 cal? To lazy to do the math.

    Yeah, It's illegal.

    Yo.

    Super glad my first account (pre-2000) has been wiped from the earth. I last visited January 21st of 2010, but I guess I am technically still around.

    Jonneh: Totally thought you died or something. Sup?

    I believe they have a law on the amount of joules to mass ratio. An average paintball excedes that ratio and is illegal. Not sure though.

    You need to work on that! If airsoft is legal then so should paintball!

    I am doing fine. I moved back to Hong Kong in 95 and have been out of paintball (which is illegal here) since then. I have picked up airsoft here but it is nothing like paintball.

    Sad to hear about Nintendo Rich. I hope the rest of the old CP are all OK.
