Whats the minimum age to play at Skirmish Airsoft? The minimum age to play at our site is 12 years old. You'll need to have a parental consent form signed which can be found in our downloads section.
Can Children Play Airsoft? Although children are not legally allowed to purchase an Airsoft gun, it is legal for anyone over the age of 18 to purchase and gift a two tone gun. So if you are a parent, it is completely legal to purchase a two tone Airsoft gun and give it to your child.
In most countries it is illegal for anyone under the age of 18 to play airsoft. However, in the USA it is perfectly legal for even 10 year olds to play.
Airsoft, like other physical sports, can cause injury. It's also possible for airsoft BBs to break the skin, damage teeth, and cause soft tissue or bone damage. Serious damage is pretty rare, and usually is due to using metal BBs instead of plastic, fired from a 400-500 FPS gun at a close distance.
Avoid playing airsoft games on publicly owned land such as parks or other local recreational areas, because you can never be sure as to who may venture onto your playing field and get hit in crossfire.
And, while it is illegal, it's part of the same Section of offenses that are covered by the Airsoft defence: so as long as OP has his defence sorted (membership of his skirmish site), then he absolutely CAN repaint his gun.
Depends on the field and game rules. But most fields simply say that as long as the gun's velocity falls in line with the field rules, it can be used. But in all my years of playing airsoft, I've never come across a field that said players must use a pistol for all games.
Self defense is basically illegal in the UK. If you used any weapon they are going to try their darnedest to prove that you could have used something else, and if that is found you will be guilty of manslaughter or assault with a deadly weapon. You are supposed to run, hide, and tell.
In answer to your first question: Owning a RIF is completely legal. The regulations put in place in the Violent Crime Reduction Act 2006 (VCRa) only relate to the sale, import or manufacture of RIFs. Ownership is not restricted.
However, if you do not have a UKARA membership you can still buy a Realistic Imitation Firearms (RIF) but only if you have a valid reason for purchase. This is typically to stop realistic looking guns getting into the hands of people who want to use them for reasons other than airsoft.
You can spray paint the gun once you have your UKARA, but a better solution possibly could be to get an M4 that has good internals, and then replace the handguard and stock (and grip if it's two tone as well) for a quality black one.
UKARA literally only applies to the purchasing and selling of Realistic Imitation Firearms (RIF's) and not the actual ownership of one, anyone over the age of 18 can legally buy or sell a two tone (blue / green etc) Airsoft gun (Imitation Firearm or IF) without the need for any UKARA registration or breaking of any law
Under the Violent Crime Reduction Act it is an offence to sell, manufacture or import a 'Realistic Imitation Firearm' (RIF), for example an airsoft gun, unless the importer can avail themselves of a specified defence.
In 2006 UKARA was formed in response to the 'Violent Crime Reduction' Act (VCRA), which specified that to purchase a realistic looking firearm the Individual must have a reason, or defence, for purchasing it. If you have a valid defence you can purchase a Realistic Airsoft Rifle, if not the weapon must be two toned.
2 tone Airsoft guns are suitable for customers who are not currently members of any registered club or society, as the principle colour is sufficiently different from a real firearm. The 2 tone BB guns in this section are high power skirmish guns which contain high grade parts that can be replaced and upgraded.

Airsoft Guns - Laws and RegulationsMost retailers of Airsoft guns have disclaimers stating that their Airsoft guns are sold with an orange tip, and that it is illegal to remove the orange tip. Furthermore, individuals in the U.S. must be 18 years of age or older to purchase an Airsoft gun.
It is no more illegal to paint the muzzle device orange on a real firearm than it is to paint a toy pistol black. Federal Law requires toy pistols to be sold with an orange muzzle.
In the US, foamed suppressors are illegal. If it doesn't have foam, it's fine. Remove the foam rings in a supressor if it has any, and only have them in on a licensed airsoft field. That way, you can't silence a replica firearm with it.
So is an Airsoft replica safe for your 13 year old? Yes, an Airsoft replica is safe and is not a BB gun. Airsoft is safe for teenagers as long as they've been taught about handling and safety. As a parent you need to judge your kid's responsibility level as well as their ability to follow rules and instructions.
The short answer is yes, it is possible, but no not all guns can cause this. For this to happen, the airsoft gun need to propel the plastic BB with enough energy to break skin. Generally players walk away with small welts but occasionally an airsoft BB will break skin.
