  • Airsoft a Nonlethal Form of Firearm Currently Illegal Within Australia
    This is a submission to the committee on Personal choice and community impacts This submission deals with Airsoft a Nonlethal form of firearm currently illegal within Australia. Can this be made legal. In 2002 the firearms act was amended in Western Australia to make paintball legal even though it is not a recognised sport in Australia. Meanwhile in the rest of the world it has lead to sports that are enjoyed by hundreds of thousands. Airsoft A brief description of what Airsoft is. Airsoft is a sport that has developed out of what were called BB guns in the 1980’s and early 1990’s. They were developed in Japan due to paintball being illegal in that country. A tagger used in airsoft consists of a simulated weapon made of plastic, Pot- metal or aluminium that ejects a round sphere 6 or 8mm in size made of either plastic or corn starch with a gluten coating (referred to as bio rounds as they break down quickly) with a weight of 0.12 up to 0.42 grams. Airsoft as a sport/recreational activity is enjoyed by 100,000’s around the world. By all ages and sexes. In the attached world map (Appendix A) you may note that every country in the world we would consider peers play the sport of airsoft. In Australia it is not however recognised as a sport due to the current illegal status. However with over 20 publications in half a dozen languages and hundreds of stores online plus the actual reference in Law to the sport of airsoft in both New Zealand’s firearms law and other countries it would be disingenuous to not proscribe it at least the recreational game/sport status that paintball enjoys in this Country.
