I dont think they are allowed in our community. Not really sure... I asked a long time ago nd was told only in a certain scenario... but a good way to find out...

Yeah I was thinking the same... But that was what I was told... Maybe we can see if it will be ok... Maybe with some kind of rule they can ok it... Like pistols only...  Just to keep it fair... |

There shoudl be a real life rule for the Riots, where you can only use a one handed weapon system with the Riot shield.

They aren't banned in the community posted rules because they can be used in certain scenarios. However, if not explicitly stated that they are ok that week, riot shields are not permitted.
The main reason is they are not realistic. a riot shield in airsoft will stop any BB from any weapon. In real life, this is not the case. Even with low power weapons, they will fail under repeated hits.

Yeah they aren't permitted solely because of the issue of hit calling.
I know in the mag community they have caused problems.
But if you guys wanted to push for it to be ok then bring it up at the meeting.
