Some common cautions about “airsoft” guns

Below are a list of common precautions when dealing with Airsoft Guns. Make sure you check with your local ordinances in regards to their legality.

* Never remove the brightly colored warning tip from the weapon.

* Never point the weapon at another person who is not wearing the appropriate protective equipment. Although some of the weapons are quite low-powered, there are some that are manufactured that can cause injury.

* Never point the weapon at another person who does not know what it is. This could lead to a menacing charge, which is a felony in the State of Colorado. It doesn’t matter what the weapon is, only what the victim perceives it to be.

* Never carry an airsoft gun into a business unless that business is aware of the weapon’s status and authorizes it. This could cause undue panic and alarm, and could result in criminal charges.

* If contacted by a law enforcement officer, immediately drop the weapon. Do not move or change your position as this could be viewed as an aggressive movement and the officer may not have time to properly evaluate the situation.

* Never point an airsoft gun at an officer of the law. This could lead to a potentially lethal situation.
