A: Yes, you must have your own personal paintball equipment before you can participate in the IPA. No paintball equipment is provided, with the exception of paintball markers used in Division 4 matches. All markers used on the day of the event belong to the rented paintball courts. There is no individual ownership of paintball markers in Singapore. It is illegal to possess a paintball marker in Singapore without a valid license. A: Yes, SPS invites any foreign team to participate in our paintball tournament. However, as there are strict regulations for importing and exporting paintball markers in Singapore, teams wishing to participate in the SPS must register at least 1 month in advance with full payment of the registration so that the SPS Organizing Committee and assistance will help you apply for an import and export permit for your team. All paintball markers must be handed over to the SPS Organising Committee upon arrival in Singapore and will only be handed over to you during tournament days. At the end of each day of the event, you must return your paintball marker to the organizer for storage and storage.
Your paintball markers will be returned to you on the day of departure. A: SPS is not a professional paintball league, so we do not allow professional players to participate. Since 2013, all PLC participants must register through the American Paintball Players Association (APPA) registration system. Registration for APPA is free. All PLC participants must register through APPA. For more information, visit www.paintball- players.org A: SPS is always looking for potential sponsors to join us in this adventure. We are open to all forms of sponsorship (money and/or prizes) of corporate organizations. For more information on sponsorship, please email our Sponsorship Manager, Mr. Travis, at travis@singaporepaintballseries.com This photo shows you why, as a security consultant, I don`t believe it`s a joke when someone threatens to shoot someone – even in Singapore “safe”: It`s a 3D printed gun powered by a simple pneumatic. It`s meant for paintball, but any fool can tell you that simple adjustments to CAD-based software can alter that design to fire almost any projectile – who said only bullets could kill? A: The SPS is organized by Extreme Sports LLP as a tool to promote paintball in Singapore.
We are proud to be the paintball specialists in Singapore. With over 15 years of combined experience in team building and the sport of paintball, SPS aims to provide a competitive platform for all paintball enthusiasts from across the Asia region. In order to raise awareness of this sport in Singapore, we want to introduce this sport to many others. A: The sensation of pain can be subjective, but paintballers involved in this sport understand that being hit by paintballs is only an essential part of the game. Paintball may not be suitable for the faint of heart. Singapore police are receiving new equipment to deal with violent protesters and rioters. One of them is a non-lethal AR rifle called P4.1. Not exactly an iconic name.
It looks like a glorified paintball gun. According to a report by Channel News Asia, the P4.1 can fire indelible color cartridges to mark some rioters. P4.1 can also fire a projectile filled with oleoresin capsicum, with an effect similar to tear gas. I`m sure this is something that the police or the paintball gun manufacturer uses as marketing to support the use of this weapon. However, less lethal projectiles do not always provide the answer sought by the police. Or worse, they are mistreated and the suspect sues for abuse and damages. The bright orange also reminds me of Nerf-Blaster. A: Unlike sports with a long history and tradition, paintball has only 30 years of history. Paintball is still in its infancy in terms of development in Singapore, but Singapore teams are already doing well in regional tournaments. The paintball community is also growing day by day.
Unfortunately, paintball is not a mainstream sport in Singapore as there is little support from government agencies. A: The SPS format requires the participation of a team, if you are not part of a team, you may want to visit a local paintball field to learn more about how to join a paintball team. If not, you can email us at info@singaporepaintballseries.com and we`ll do our best to find a team to play with. A: A box of 2000 paintballs costs between $95.00 and $105.00 (GST included) in all PLC related events. Exterior paint balls are not allowed during the event. SPS does not hesitate to disqualify players or teams who violate this rule. A: You can pick up the sport at Red Dynasty Paintball Park, which is the official sponsor of the SPS event. Red Dynasty Paintball Park offers paintball sports coaching for individuals and teams who want to learn more about competitive paintball. You can also visit our affiliated paintball operators such as Paintball Alliance Pte Ltd or School of Paintball Pte Ltd (SOP) for your training needs. For example, buy a 3D printer for home use and make equipment piece by piece, then assemble to make this 3D printed paintball gun: send your team`s interest to info@singaporepaintballseries.com and we will send you the necessary document to import and export your paintball marker.
That`s not possible for crazy shooter scenarios in Singapore, you say? Think again. So the next time someone online makes a very public (and stupid) threat to shoot someone, don`t just do it as a joke or “he literally didn`t mean it” — especially if it`s coming from someone trying to bully others publicly in other posts. The weapon – painted orange to distinguish it from other devices – will not endanger public safety or cause unnecessary injury or loss. A: Yes, you must purchase a Player ID from the organizers. The player identification tag not only allows organization staff to recognize you as a legitimate participant, but it can also be retained as a reminder of participation. Starting in 2011, all player ID tags will be based on the entire season, meaning you`ll only need to purchase one player ID tag for the entire season. There is an additional replacement fee of $21.40 for the replacement of identification tags. A: Anyone 14 years of age or older. Participants between the ages of 14 and 17 must obtain parental consent prior to participating. This regulation is imposed by the Singapore Police and is strictly regulated in Singapore. What`s scary is that you can print and build this weapon piece by piece using a regular desktop 3D printer that costs less than $500, and the blueprints are available online, along with more complex designs. Singapore Police Gets New Equipment to Deal with Violent Protesters and Rioters The above Facebook post dated June 14, 2016 states: And more generally, “weapon” refers to any firearm, air pistol, air gun, automatic pistol, automatic pistol and any other type of weapon or pistol from which a shot, A bullet or other missile can be fired.
This answer is quite clear: according to the Weapons and Explosives Act, no one can exchange, manufacture and use weapons without a permit, unless authorized to do so. The Firearms Blog is an information site dedicated to all things firearms. TFB reports on key stories from the firearms industry. TFB employees share a passion for firearms, but come from diverse backgrounds, from law enforcement to deployment on the roads of Fallujah, Iraq, to hunting game in the forests. However, this question has already been raised by the public, and the Singapore Police responded in December 2015: Yes, it is indeed scary to believe that it is possible to print a gun out of nowhere in Singapore based on maps readily available on the internet. I find it strange that the Aimpoint microsupport is on a riser, with this configuration, the iron sights could cover all my metal. Why don`t they just experience the look with iron visors? We have strict laws against the trade, manufacture and use of firearms. This also applies to 3D printed firearms. Under the Weapons and Explosives Act, using a 3D printer to produce weapons or weapon components without a licence is already a criminal offence. If you have several hundred dollars and some free time to spare, there is a lot you can do these days.
Alternatively, you or your team can use the services of our coaches and referees to accelerate your learning of the sport. This article was originally published on The Firearms Blog. The latest items of Police1 firearms products can be found in a modern service pistol for small cops, 10 families of concealed large weapons and in our review of rail-mounted lights and lasers. The request is, of course, punishable by death in Singapore.
