I am visiting Austria to play airsoft and need to know the regulations.
In England we have many such as gun velocity and how to carry in public and netting for sites.
Do you have a governing body.
Any help will be appreciated.
Sorry if message posted in wrong area.

I am UK airsoft player. So I only speak english.
Due to the fact almost everyone of our players of this board can read Arnie's News understanding english should not be a big issue.

That's nice, that somebody from the island will visit us here. There are no real regulations about airsoft in Austria like in the UK. So there
are no FPS-Limits by law and nothing has to be painted orange. The registered associations (german: "Verein") do have some limits. In our case it is 360 FPS for AEGs. Speaking of registered associations - you will need to join an event organized by an associations, because you are not allowed to skirmish with more than 4 persons. In Austria you need a permit for airsoft-events having more than 4 persons, which is usally only given to associations and companies. (The reason is a law about paramilitary groups.)

No, we don't have, but each federal state has at least one associations. Austria is a small country and therefore we know each other ;)

Just ask. If you want to translate german words you might consider http://dict.leo.org

It is in the correct area.
So here are my questions:
How long and when are you going to visit austria. I assume that it must be a longer vacation, because it would not make sense to carry all of your equipment to austria.
Where will you live in austria? (So we can give you directions to the local associations.)
sites dont have special regulations ..... it depends on where the sites are .... if the site is in a wood, where are a lot of poeple, then it might be better to place warning signs alont the edges of the rented site, so that nobody gets hurt .... but the law has no special regulations, ....
Zeus_93 already mentonied a big difference to the UK: There are only a few sites and therefore only a few events! We also don't have any airsoft retailer, except one, which is way too expensive and unfriendly.

and that is why the meaning of ascn is no longer Airsoft Sport Club Nieder?sterreich.
the new meaning of ascn from now on is Anti Schunko Campaign Nieder?sterreich!
but that wasn't useful... :)
welcome! ;)
