From the latest APG E-zine
>>BREAKING NEWS<<>>BREAKING NEWS<<

AIRGUN RESTRICTIONS and proposals are expected to be announced by
Britain's Queen. These restrictions and policies, which may
impact paintball as well, are liable to serve as an example for other
countries to follow. Some politicians world-wide are trying to attack
and stop paintball, and they draw legal precedent from each other's
countries and from similar laws to those they want to push. Airgun
restrictions have already been used in American legal battles against
paintball. These possible restrictions reflect a trend in international
politics towards banning all devices that emit any projectile of any
kind; and that includes our markers.
The queen has this power then? :confused:

Even if they ban it it will only get driven 'underground'. There's way too many people hooked on 'ball to stop it completely.

Ban paintball, what a load of ****e........more injuries happen on a football field ffs, when its properly done paintball is a non-dangerous sport, it`s just little punks who shoot their markers in the street that give our sport a bad name :(

If they ban paintball, they may aswell ban shooting........and you know they wont ban a olympic sport ;)

Oh well, just an idea. Guess it kinda loses the edge when (a) your bodyguards are leaping into the way of the oncoming paint and (b) there isn't something furry getting shredded by hounds.

Still love the idea of the Queen involved with a bit of pre-game smack-talkin' though :D
