I heard from my buddy that you can use an airsoft gun in a paintball game as long as you use the tiny paintballs. Is this true? Because I have a little pistol and I think it would be fun to just break out my Italian paintballgun and shoot.

Thanks

I don't think most fields will let you do that.  Just get a paintball gun and be a man.

Airsoft paintballs are crap. And won't work with any "Good" airsoft gun... only cheap springers.

Better to keep each sport within it's own realm. Paintball is best left to larger caliber pneumatic guns. Airsoft is better left to small caliber plastic BBs.

I'm sure you could if you were just a rec baller but I wouldn't. Those airsoft paintballs never break and don't travel very far at all.
