Shouldn't I be able to have an airsoft gun?

Question

I am going to turn 16 this december and i wanted to get an airsoft gun for my birthday from airsoftgi.com My parents are saying that they are dangerous and have a bad influence on me or somethng really dumb like that. Also, how could I be able to convince them that i should be able to get one.

Answer 1

yea im 14 and i have like 15 of them 4 pistols 5 rifles 2 sniper rifles and 4 automatic rifles. there really fun.

Answer 2

Im 12 and have an AEG but u have to be careful it doesnt bounce off walls or anything. if u airsoft with ur friends wear googles and thick clothes and u should be fine as long as u dont get shot in the face also u should get a mask if u really want to be safe u could tell them ur going to do all this and it might convince em thats what i did

Answer 3

I am 15 and have had multiple airsoft guns. First you must show them that you are mature enough to handle something that looks like the real thing. Once you have earned their trust just show them how safe you can make it. Even if it means wearing a full facemask or protective goggles that makes you look "uncool" just do it, you've already gone this far, don't give up now! Just keep reassuring them that you'll keep your mask on at all times and it won't hurt, and you'll only shoot it outside.     I hope this helped : )
