hi kman,

yes, it is not allowed to play airsoft games, wearing clothes like yaya, and using the forest.

also paintball is very hard to play in germany, friends of me travel to Czechia (cz) for playing. the few places, were it is allowed to play in germany paintball, are under very hard control. so it is not allowed to wear tactical clothes when playing and so on.

the weapon law is very hard in germany, and some principle come from an area of terrorism in the 70ths, like RAF etc, when gouverment was afraid of people who drill to figth.

there are many restrictions in germany also for airsoft weapons. so full auto is only allowed to 0,5 Joule, over 0,5 Joule the airsoft weapons have to be converted to semi auto.

as iam a sport shooter and weapon owner i dont understand the trouble they make about the airsoft weapon. but it is the land iam living so i have to observe the rules in this land.

bye

in France, paintball and airsoft are allowed but the paintball guns looking like a real gun require a shooter license and I've heard that most of the paintball clubs forbid the use of military clothing.

20 years ago you could still go a supermarket and buy a AR15 or a Kalashnikov in 222 rem (semiauto) with only an identity card or a driving license showing you're above 18 :?

As I recall, Germany is pretty stringent about the display of some of the first person shooter games in stores, and some video game publishers have to create different versions of the games (sans blood and guts) so that their games can be sold in Germany.

It´s not about video games, they became very "public" when "kids" started a shooting at their schools, shot teatchers and other studends. Investigators found video games at their homes and started a discussion about video games will increase fatal violence.
But you a right, blood etc is prohibited in German video games, but the swastika also...


"Games" like gotcha are prohibited in Germany on public areas. You need a special "playground" with a fence around and a non public access. Even to carry an airsoft gun with you. You will need an weapons permit for it as soon as the "weapons" energy is higher than 0,5 Joule. Less is a toy...

Little kids on streets with airsoft weapons will cause a hugh police assignment "every day"...

So you shoot each other with airsoft guns? I'm down with paintball and all, but that just seems... dangerous.. never thought I'd be the one saying that..

Eye protection is mandatory and the UK operates a 1.3J (350fps) limit on automatic weapons....As an ex-paintball player I can say it hurts a damn sight less, costs less and the gear is real (well, not the guns since I live in the police state of England)

Paintball and airsoft are both great- like Pizza. Some people like Ham and Pineapple. Some people prefer the Feta and Olive Supreme...Both hit the same buttons in different ways :wink:
