And why is this something you should be worrying about... do not be getting into others people lives of what is right and wrong, worry about yourself

Well that's a larf. You see, I have more or less 10 grand of gear in my house, and kiddies like you who think the world is obligated to provide them with everything who get caught by cops, border patrol or whatever brings my investment one step closer to being declared criminal.

So, in this case, by not wanting to wrap your brain around the etiquette of this board and going out buying guns and playing outside of a controlled setting you are involving yourself in my life.

Besides, think about it. This site has setup an ellaborate age verification to prevent minors from getting their hands on guns and accessories. No one asked us to do this, it's all self regulated. If you think I'm an asshole just wait until the more unfriendly people get here...

I'm not going to do that stupid "+1+ thing and then quote everything that Surebet just said. I will however say this.

Have you spoken with the OPP that patrol the area near your home? Do you have written recognition that all of the officers out of your local detachment (or city) know that you are playing wargames using replica firearms on the property?

People have been surrounded by RCMP ERT teams for sitting on THEIR OWN privately owned land while shooting gophers with .22's. You seem to think that you can do ANYTHING you want while on your own land, and that is simply not the truth.

How high do you want to upgrade your gun? Want to pump it up as fast as possible? 550fps sound good? Great, then we get to deal with you being charged as a criminal for firing a firearm at another human being.

Maybe you're along the fence-line and someone drives by in their pickup truck while seeing a child in camouflage (you) take aim with your 'assault rifle' at another child. They call the RCMP, city police or OPP and suddenly you are fucked up.

You don't seem to grasp how many variables there are to getting yourself (and MY sport) fucked up by some silly actions of yours.

I have 140 acres of field that are in the process of being set up. I have spoken with the three local area detachments and brought in examples (the worst possible/scary looking guns) to show them. Each of the officers at the three detachments know what is happening and there are barriers set up blocking public view (and no, not just 'brush').

So what have you done?

Are you sure about that? I'm the Canadian distributor, and there's several left in stock and ready to ship.

G-C4 Polycarbonate Eye Protection Glasses

I've used similar Guarder eyewear before and they are comfortable and well suited for airsoft. The construction is very good for airsoft and one of the better airsoft eyewear products you can get.

My whole family has taken precautions... seeing as the majority of the land surrounding the area is either forests or farmers fields... and the owners are known by my family. The land is used as well by everyone in the area as hunting grounds... so maybe not little fake guns like airsoft are shot, more lethal firearms are being shot. The precations are already arranged and never has there been a problem with the locals or police. The local friends, neighbours, family and I, all take precautions when hunting. These precautions are more than enough when dealing with guns that do not even exceed 300FPS as of now.

Firearm accidents are more common after the age of 20. So you may stop putting the blame on people under 18 or "teens" "The largest number of firearm deaths for males were for the age group 20–24 years" Source
