Frequently Asked Questions About Airsoft

How old do you need to be to play airsoft?

Paintball is enjoyed by a tremendous range of people. We feel that 14 and above is the best age. Airsoft requires maturity in order to follow the safety rules and gameplay formats. While we do recommend certain ages, it really is up to the parent to determine if their child is ready to participate. Its also great to see when adults and kids join together to play as this creates lasting memories for both. All particpants, regardless of age, must have the ability for the safety equipment to fit properly and they must be capable of following the safety rules.

Wear comfortable clothing that you can run around in.We also recommend a knit cap or some kind of head cover as well as gloves. This will act as extra padding. Our pro-shops will also have this available for purchase if you need.

Does airsoft hurt?

Being hit by an airsoft pellet can cause a mild stinging sensation, similar to a quick snap from a rubber band. The level of discomfort varies based on factors such as the pellet's speed (measured in feet per second, or FPS), the distance from which it's fired, the weight of the BB, and the area of impact. For instance, shots from high-FPS guns at close range or to sensitive areas like the face or hands may cause more noticeable discomfort or minor bruising.
‍o minimize potential discomfort and ensure safety during airsoft games, it's essential to wear appropriate protective gear. This includes eye protection, such as goggles or full-face masks, to safeguard against eye injuries, as well as clothing that covers exposed skin to reduce the impact of pellets. Additionally, many airsoft fieldsles like minimum engagement distances and FPS limits to further enhance player safety.
‍In summary, while airsoft can cause mild discomfort upon being hit, adhering to safety guidelines and using proper protective equipment can significantly reduce the risk of injury, making the sport enjoyable for participants.
