Carrying at Texas Paintball?

[Fosty 2.0]

Going airsofting for the first time in a couple of weeks.
You guys know if they have any signage?

Already checked Texas3006.com and tried to get a street view of their front door.

That's a pretty unfair gun fight

Are you sure that carrying an actual firearm in an environment where realistic looking toy guns are in abundance and will be shot at you and others is a good idea? Especially since most people I see playing airsoft carry both a long gun and a side arm? The possibility for confusion is there.

You do you, but I'm not too sure I'd want to do that.

Never carry live when using simulated arms. If you ignore this then you have an obligation to tell the other players that you are carrying.

You’re joking right?

 

[General Zod]

Why would anyone be joking about this? "Never carry live when using simulated arms" is a fairly standard safety rule.

I hope you are only talking about carrying to the establishment, and not during airsofting. If the former, as it should be, I would advise leaving the weapon locked safely in your vehicle. If not, it's simply the worst idea ever.

Hopefully the establishment has rules against carrying any and all kinds of weapons while playing, and that they check before the games begin.

No I'm not joking. I carry everywhere and I rarely go to places that I'm not allowed to carry.
I'm not going to accidentally lift my shirt and draw my pistol.

You are a tard. Please advise the other players that you are carrying a live firearm while playing.

They'll probably complain and I'll get kicked out, so I would rather not.

That's a really bad idea. Why has already been explained.

As somebody that played a lot of paintball as a teenager, the adrenaline dump you feel in a game is quite real. I imagine airsoft guns are much the same way.

I'd also hate to chance losing my carry piece on the field only to have a kid find it and think it's an airsoft gun at first blush.

That's actually a good argument.

Nobody would do this. Not professional top tier operators. It's dangerous and stupid. If you don't feel safe out there without your weapon then don't go.

My gun club does not allow for you to carry a side arm concealed or not on it's ranges.

Well no shit, I'd complain too. That's just asking for trouble. There are a million reason why you shouldn't do what you're suggesting, so pick one and don't do it.

If you feel that you can't go an hour without your gun at that venue, then don't go. The fact that not a single person here has supported your suggestion should tell you something.

I stopped playing paintball and airsoft years ago because of people's poor judgement

Don't.

That’s a pretty dumb question to ask! Prolly should go see a head doctor!

#1. Why would you even do that.

#2. <Someone mentioned fair fight> If your any good at all, a real gun doesnt stand a chance. My boys played semi-pro and could blister your ass from head to toe at 100-200 feet before you knew what happened. Dont even think a shot could be fired in the rain of hundreds of paintballs peppering your ass with several reloads behind it.

Accuracy by volume.

Im not sayin a gun wont kill ya, Im wonderin why would you want to carry one in the arena?

Then heed it.
