It’s Halloween and many of you are probably excited for that scary costume party that will be taking place tonight or go on trick-or-treating. Halloween is probably that part of the year when a big part of the world’s human population dress up to look scary.
If you are looking for props to go with your costume, we would rather advice that you go out without your airsoft gun, or even any kind of gun whatsoever. The airsoft community has been working very hard each year to inform airsoft players not to go out on Halloween displaying their airsoft guns in public to go with their costumes.
Just like in normal days where you need to keep your airsoft stored in a gun bag while in public spaces, Halloween should also be airsoft guns should be put away and left at home. Airsoft guns are always mistaken for the real thing and people may just call the police on you if you bring one for trick-or-treating.
So keep safe, leave the guns at home today unless there is a Halloween-themed airsoft game you want to go to.
We’ll let UKAPU tell also their Halloween PSA:
Getting dressed up for Halloween this year?
Lots of us enjoy dressing up for Halloween and to some the addition of a RIF to their outfit might be the cherry on the cake, but if you are planning on going out please consider that the sight of someone strolling around in public or at a party, carrying what most people would consider to be a firearm won’t go down well.
You may not realise it but you are all ambassadors for our sport and as such you have the ultimate responsibility to ensure that no harm comes to it from preventable incidents.
So save yourself and everyone else the hassle and leave the RIF at home!
Also we’ll never tire of reposting these Halloween PSA videos posted in the past years:
Happy Halloween!
