I saw something on CBC to last night about the Calgary police department asking people to turn in their airsoft guns after two kids were arrested touting Glock gas blow backs.
These are the types of people that will ruin the sport for everyone and get it made illlegal to own the guns. The story said that although the police department reliezes that own the Airsoft guns are not illegal they would like people to come forward and turn their Airsoft guns over to the police department.
Sorry I can't find any links to the story.
Has anyone else heard this?
 
I sure hope this it dosent become illigal to own one, because im keeping them  :threat: Anyone play with tactical-operations.com? They look like a cool place to play airsoft. BTW i was reading someone elses newspaper in the bus, and it was saying something about Kids getting arrest by using the fake gun. Soon as I read that I knew something like this was going to happen.
 
Airsoft are guns that look real but fire bb's, it takes counter-strike to the next level.

Ok wow i was going to reply to your question mammal but in less than 20 seconds two other people did.
If any of you live in Edmonton, Calgary or somewhere near you should consider going to tactical-operations.com
They have complete facts on BBGuns

This is just one of those times when I see a bandwagon starting up, first we have the police issue a statement calling for the destruction of the guns, then we get the "Bleeding-heart over protective mothers of wimpy children club" yelling *Won't somebody please think of the children?!?!?!*, all we need after that is a liberal MP and the recipe for the abolishment of airsoft is complete.

Ugh.. just thought about that.
Guess we'll have to start up a pro-airsoft bandwagon of our own..  ;D
 
I hate to say it, but enjoy this hobby and passtime while youy can, because I can assure you, the days are numbered, and federally, Canada will prohibit/ban these like they did blow guns many years ago. These have been illegal in Australia for many years.

Sadly there is nothing you can do about it either.

Cheers,

We could always shoot paul m errrr Osama with them *hides*

Prove their usefeulness  >:D
 
MAN those are cool looking LOL, i've never heard of them before. i had a couple BB guns as a kid, and they looked sorta real, but nothing like that. pricey though. are they worth it?
 
Not if they're banned.
 
And to think there were people on here a few hours ago outraged at a video game, and were also upset at the new Greenday video. Now people are going up in arms over the right to have airsoft guns.

I belive you should be able to own them and if you get shot by the cops because it was being used in an unworthy fashon it would be your fault. We need to cull the herd anyways and lets get the stupid ones before we go for the weak.

Waste your money somewhere else boys.
Give girls a try, you just might like em. :o
