26ft rule

im curious if the number of feet that you are allowed to shoot some1 with your main weapon is reduced if playing in a building or similar places.

Your fps limit would be reduced.

so you would need to use a gun that dusnt have 340ish fps to shoot ppl in a confined area? or have i misunderstood...

fps for 0 minimum engagement distance is less than 300 fps.

So yes you would need a different gun or downgrade your normal gun in the event that you wanted to play indoors with us.

Rules on fps vary from team to team.

where does CVA play indoor? besides going down to Ogden...

i better keep my plastic m4 then if i ever go airsofting with you guys indoors...

When we have a venue. Our last one was condemned for probably the 10th time and we were not allowed to play there anymore.

I spent months playing with nothing but a tri-shot shotgun and a CM030 that shoots about 200 fps. I still got plenty of kills. FPS is like a fast car. It's at most 1/2 the equation. At least as important is the skill of the driver. Ask anyone if they would ever discount James running with his pistol only.

Question. Is the 600 fps. limit on snipers concrete? No shooting a 700 fps. gun from 300 ft. away? I'm looking into a range finder because I want to be safe with my shots so I'm curious about the limits.

The FPS cap is the actual cap. Beyond that and the risk on injury becomes unacceptable.

sounds good. Thanks.

Oh, you done much sniping reid? I'm looking into it. I like sneaking...

To help explain the cap I can't see a situation where you would ever need to be above 600 fps. If you did have a 700 fps gun and were hypothetically allowed to shoot people at 300 feet (minimum, so you are taking most of your shots at 400-500 ft) you would have very few opportunities. Most of the fields we play on don't provide that many long distance shots. When you start getting into those ranges you are really just hoping on luck even with a higher fps. The wind will float your bbs wherever it wants over that distance.

Nope. I'm more of a up close mayhem kind of guy.
