Airsoft Days F.A.Q.

All the info you need to know

Coming Spring 2012

 

What are the age requirements to play?

• Ages 10 and up.

What about eye protection?

• For players under the age of 18, a regular paintball mask is required.
• For players aged 18 or older, full-seal airsoft goggles are allowed.
• There are no MESH goggles or shooting glasses allowed. They must form a seal around the eyes.

Are there other safety devices needed?

• Yes, all weapons that are being used, or out in the open must have a paintball barrel sock to help with any accidental discharges.

Are there any weapon restriction?

• Besides FPS limitations, there are no restrictions. You can carry as many as you’d like.

What are the FPS limitations?

• All weapons must be chrono’d before playing with 0.20g bbs (however, you can play with any weight). Engagement distance minimums vary based on your weapons FPS performance.

Up to 290 FPS	15 Feet minimum
291 – 350 FPS	25 Feet minimum
351 – 400 FPS	35 Feet minimum
Only BOLT-ACTION rifles may fire over 400 FPS to a MAX of 500 FPS.    |   50 Feet minimum

I’d like to play, but I have no airsoft gear. Do you guys rent equipment?

• Currently, there are no rentals available at this time. See if friends have any extra gear!

Are there other weapons besides standard airsoft replicas that can be used?

• Yes. Players may use airsoft made grenades, grenade launchers, and rubber knives.

Can you elaborate on the rubber knives?

• Although not many carry them and fewer actually find themselves in a situation where it can be used, rubber knives are allowed only if the blade easily bends a full 90 degrees in either direction.

What about safety zone rules?

• When in the safety zone, or staging area, all weapons must have an EMPTY chamber, their safety engaged, paintball barrel sock placed on, and the magazine removed from the receiver. Handguns that ARE holstered don’t need a barrel sock on, but their magazine still needs to be removed.

Are there refs on the field, like in paintball?

• Yes. Employees will be roaming the fields, but their role is more for enforcing safety rules. Airsoft is a game of honor and players are expected to call their own hits.

 Is there any paper work that players need to fill out?

• Yes. Standard waivers are required by insurance prior to heading on to the fields. They are available on location, as well as on our website as a print out.

Is paintball equipment allowed?

• The only type of paintball gear allowed is paintball apparel and masks. No paintball markers, grenades, or anything involving paint is allowed.

What gametypes can I expect?

• Anything from the standard Team Elimination to Capture the Flag variants to Capture Territory modes. Before each match, the ref in charge will go over the gametype and any game specific rules.

 

Are you done yet?

Yes, I think so. You can review the FULL rules here though : C3Airsoft.com. It's a great community, we recommend getting involved. We are not airsoft experts - they certainly are.
