There are always goin to be questions when it comes to what you can and cant...or more like, what you should and shouldn't do when it comes to your airsoft gun. Think about it, you're running around with guns that look super real, in fasemasks and shooting at each other...there are some elements to this game that can be super sketchy...so here are a few tips that could maybe help you reduce the sketch factor of playing Airsoft with your buds.
1) Don't take off the orange tips of your gun. That is just asking for trouble...I know you want your gun to look real and cool when you're running scenarios and stuff, but it is was more safe to just bite it and keep the orange tip on there. Even then, it is still hard to distinguish between an actual and an airsoft gun.
2) Don't play on public land without permission. It is definitely best to play in designated airsoft areas or private areas where the public is not exposed or at risk of coming across. It's gotta be quite startling to be walking around somewhere and just all of a sudden see 4 or 5 guys running through the woods with sniper rifles and ak-47s. Best thing to to: keep the public away from your airsoft activities.
3) Consult local authorities before you play a game. This is easy, make sure your local police department knows what you are doing and that you are playing AIRSOFT. There have been countless injuries, deaths and law suits resulting from misunderstandings with airsoft guns. The best way to save your own butt and make sure everyone is safe is to just take every precaution possible.
