Paintball in Germany - Page 2

Also, no Mil-sim. Period. Not even camo. Not that that's a bad thing.

There was a user here, Scharfschutze, if memory serves, who posted some cool German old-school-classic videos. Killer woodsball and speedball, with really pretty Phantoms.

What about the rest of Europe?
Does anyone know where we could see a chart showing different laws governing paintball marker ownership and max Joule per projectile laws?

It would be a helpful resource.

Only 215fps? hmmm, on the bright side that means there is increased air efficiency.

only as an idea, what about to start an new thread, maybe sticky with posts and informations about country specific regulations. for example "global painting"

Ok, so it would be fair to say that it is just heavily regulated. Where would one go about getting the required stamps and stuff?

I remember a few years back, there was a "report" from someone that was at a tournament at some indoor warehouse like building. There was even some video's, wish I had saved them, one that showed a birds eye view of a game in progress when a bunch of German officers in SWAT/riot type gear come busting in, in the middle of a game, with their firearms drawn and pointed at anyone and everyone. There was another video, outside, showing offers milling around, and I think that a number of paintballers sitting on the sidewalk, just chatting, while being "guarded". The video's were up for a while, then disappeared

I know that Germany, at least, depends less on FPS for maximum velocity of a paintball, and more of what the Joules energy of the impact is, to determine how fast the paintballs can fly. From something said, but I can't verify if this is fully accurate, even if a marker is shooting at a specific velocity to assure that they are hitting at the prescribed Joules, if it has a regulator that can allow the velocity to go higher, then it could be considered illegal.

In Scandinavia it's just the standard 300 fps max limit.

for germany

W-kin <7,5 Joule
Semi Only
markings: F in pentagon, caliber and dealer

try to ask one of the bigger german dealer witch is allowed to stamp those markings for a "einzelgutachten", that means that your gun would be tested to complie the regulations and ,if it pass, get the markings.

but it may be easier and cheaper to buy an gun in germany or use a rental.

if it would be easy i would have already tried to get my fingers on a DSP...
