BLM (Bureau of Land Management ) , or USFS (United States Forest Service) land is nationally set aside for recreational use , that includes Paintballing . BLM is more favorable to paintballers , they have already done the studies that prove recreational use , by sport paintballers doesnt hurt the environment . Or you could just go to your local paintball arena ? Paintball guns are considered ,in many townships and cities to be a "Less lethal" form of a Firearm (definitly illegal to shoot on the street !! ) Get out of town , onto county land , and inform the County Sherrifs you will be playing paintball in some general area , and they are welcome to come watch , or participate , if they have the proper safety equipment . Or take your game to Private land (get the owners permission first)

Tough situation. The cops have showed up to the woods where I play twice. Once we got caught and just got a warning. Another time the cops came while we were playing at night, they pulled in the forest with their red and blue lights on. Scary. |

hmmm.............how about a paintball field? or you could ask around see if any farmer would let you use a field. or you could ask someone that owns a ton of woods and see if they would let you play in them. but i would say go to a field. it will be cheeper in the long run because if you get cought by the cops they will probubly take your markers away melt them down have you on a $500 bond and maybe have a gun restriction. so i would say a paintball field
tip:never run from the cops it just makes things worse! they will always catch you. p.s. i am not a cop "YET" oh, and good luck finding a place to play ------------- dogde ball may be fun but at least in paintball if somone doesn't go out when they are hit you can shoot them again until they decide they want to give up trying to cheat soes this make sence? |

But you CAN hurt someone. The owner of the property or some random guy walking around the woods (it can happen) could walk into your game, and receive some .68 caliber balls of goo-filled gelatin in the eye at 204 mph (ok maybe a little less after traveling some distance). You want to make absolutely sure that the area is completely secured.

Minnesota's the bestest playing this weekend-on my hobby farm-shed galore-awesome for urban and night...might be a bit chilly eh? get a couple pickup truck loads of pallets from any big store (grocery stores should work), and see if you can rent out a fallow field for cheap-fallow field is one that is not being farmed-use the pallets to build an simple field |
