1) If you take your gun out in public, you will be treated as if it is a real gun. This means that failing to comply with peace officer requests could end in you being SHOT.
2) Play ONLY in areas that are PRIVATE and that you have PERMISSION to use. This does NOT include parks, school yards, or government forests. These areas should not be visible to passers by. Do NOT use your backyard.
3) The people in power make the rules. If a police officer deems to confiscate your gun, he has that right. If customs choses to sieze your gun, they have that right. This isn't a consistant occurance, but when it happens there's really not much of a point you arguing about it. Especially if a police officer takes your gun. If he had the chance to take it from you, you probably weren't behaving properly with it anyways.
4) Airsoft is not illegal, but it IS in a very fragile state. Continuing negative public exposure can ruin it for EVERYONE. If you don't want to be responsible for having airsoft banned in Canada, be responsible and mature about your conduct. Treat the gun as a real one and chances are you won't have any problems.
