Rules/Guild-lines

Okay so my team has gotten ahold of some property to play airsoft on. Its mostly a few fields, a river, some wooded areas, a few cliffs, but there isn't any bunkers or anything like that out there yet. We want to invite other teams to come out and play. We have to create a waiver for them to sign. What rules/guild-lines should I include on the waiver?

Well first of all, think about how you want the sport to be played on your land. Mention language, whether or not they're allowed to use pyros, FPS limitations, etc. If you looking at making it a field, you may want to invest in some equipment like a chrono, loner guns, and a place to sell BBs to players.
By the way, you don't really need Bunkers. Its more fun just to play on your surroundings. Thats what it would probably be in real life anyways.

I represent the lollipop guild.

Parlay
Bang-Bang

yeah, we're planning on getting a chrono machine (cause we obviously need one to keep fps restrictions), but we wouldn't loan guns and none of us have enough money to buy enough bbs (even if we pooled our money) to sell, although that would be really cool (breckton.... )

But if you buy bulk BBs, then your going to make a profit on them by selling them. So you actually could afford it XD

Didnt durkee say that being an Authorized G&G bb retailer gets you them for 3 bucks a bag?

don't think Ive heard that from him, but I better get my license and start "Selling"

You need a business license and it takes alot to get authorized by G&G I hear. (My friend did end up reselling for ICS)

Best warning label on a BB bag ever:

LIABILITY DISCLAIMERS. Last thing you want is a kid's parents suing you for a sprained ankle or broken wrist. The adults are held responsible for the situation, and if you are the 'adult'.... yeah.

The only reason we'd have to build anything is because we might get stuck out in a field with no cover and that's not cool. The land isn't really ours. That's why we might get put in a field. We don't really know where we'll be for sure. The land is my grandpa's but he is giving us permission to use it and to charge others to come play. He already has a weaver he's used for other activities on his property but I want to add on to it to make it more "airsoft appropriate".

Does anybody have a suggestion for a chronograph that is good but won't break our bank?

If you and your friends can't afford BBs, then good luck getting your hands on a Chrono...

Well we all have bbs its just buying more to sell? That looks good for the future, but first things first.

Oh and just a precaution if you make any more than a certain amount per year you will have to register as a business.

Oh and add in your waver, any injurys that result in not following the rules stated above are not your problem... blablabla

Do you know what the amount per year is?

By legal definition, you need a business license if you are making any money at all. With that said, there is alot of gray area with the law and it is rarely enforced.
You can sell BB's or whatever at your field just fine...nobody is going to come requesting to see a business license.

Right, but if somehow this project reaps in lots of green, it could present a problem with all the legal shiz that is America. I've seen it happen.

I'm still looking for a chronograph. Does anybody know of a good one that won't break the bank?

What do you mean by "wont break the bank"? Chronos are super expensive...

No dur they're expensive...
But how hard is it to figure out? I need one that is not the most expensive out there.

Well this is assuming he says yes. I'm pretty sure he will

Check out the XCORTECH series for chronos. Don't go super cheap (like the $50 one on AirSplat) because you want it to be accurate and last a long time.

Okay thanks.

Any idea what we should charge per person? We don't have CQB or a shop or anything like that.

$15 at the most. You just need enough to maintain the field.
