Standard Practice for Air Soft Player Safety Briefing
SIGNIFICANCE AND USE 4.1 Specific safety rules and procedures are important in order to minimize the risk of injury to persons in the general area of air soft guns. SCOPE 1.1 This practice is intended to satisfy the demand for basic safety information, which should be understood by each air soft game participant prior to the start of the player’s first game on the day of play. 1.2 The information specifies rules of personal conduct, which might affect the safety of persons who are in close proximity to an air soft gun. 1.3 The information includes procedures to be followed by every person who is in, or near, an area where air soft games are being played or air soft ammunition is being shot, and to the use of safety equipment related to air soft game or air soft target shooting activities. These procedures are to be followed any time an air soft gun is being handled. 1.4 This standard is intended to be a useful tool for air soft game organizers, but it is not intended to eliminate the need for proper game supervision, conforming to Practice F2940. 1.5 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
