Group leader? What does that mean? That he makes decisions for you on your field? Nonsense.

I don't think I believe in "group leader" as in "of an airsoft community". Group leader "in-game", yes, there are squad leaders, commanding officers. But that's where it should stop.

If your community really calls for a "leader", and from what I read here, the fact that you're expressing concerns about security and all that makes me think you'd make a better "leader" than him.

Seriously, a kid under 14 (I'm being politicaly correct here) should never handle a rifle, pistol of any kind without direct supervision of his parents. And I'm thinking handling that rifle and possibily shooting targets, not people. Let alone dropping them alone to shoot and get shot at. That's my opinion about this, but one that is common sense I think.

Your field, your rules. Just make sure you don't make stupid decisions, but that looks covered by the fact you came here asking for advices. Props tonyou on that
