Categories // Special

We need EVERY person who cares about airsoft in CA to join us in this fight. 

CA BILL SB 798 SAY NO!

Our airsoft sport and hobby is once again under attack from those who seek to deprive us of our rights under the false pretense of public safety.

California Senate Bill 798 (SB798) by California State Senator Kevin De Leon (22nd CA Senate District) would require all "BB guns" and imitation firearms to be brightly colored or constructed of clear or translucent materials.Furthermore, coloring airsoft and airguns the same color as you would a NERF or similar TOY gun may cause parents to underestimate the potential dangers of said airsoft and airguns.

This may lead to lax supervision and can result in more injuries due to unsupervised use of airsoft and airguns. The author(s) of this bill have no basic understanding of the differences between airsoft guns, airguns, imitation firearms, and toy guns. This bill was written on unfounded statistics and overall ignorance. Now is the time to take action to save our sport, our hobby, and a very valuable training tool for working professionals. Please take this time to write to the bill author and your local California Senator and Assemblyman. We MUST stop this bill from becoming law. If we ALLOW this bill to pass, much more than the color of our airsoft guns will be at stake. 

Do Not Hesitate! ACT NOW!
