What would be your reaction?
Ok, here's the story.
We were driving through downtown Greensburg yesterday when all of a sudden, like a bat out of hell, a 18-19year old comes running out of an alley carrying a gun. He almost slammed against my Escalade and a couple seconds later another guy (also carrying a gun) chasing number 1. I told my wife to get down as I slammed the brakes.
The first guy turned towards number 2 and aimed his gun at him (this was about 30yards away from our car) and at the same time number 2 aimed his gun. There must've been 15yards between the two of them and right at that point I noticed the small orange tip on the gun of number 1...............damn air soft guns. There we are.............in our car. Me with a cocked 44special in my hand and my wife under the dashboard of the car, hiding.
I got out of the car and walked towards these two idiots screaming my head off at them for being so irresponsible.
Number 1 turned as pale as a stiff because he noticed my 44special and started to stutter a bunch of apologies, but number 2 thought it was really funny and laughed his ass off. He said that they were doing this kind of stuff all the time. I told him.....just wait till you pull this crap in front of a LEO one time.......you might not be so lucky.You can only get smarter by playing a smarter opponent

If nothing else, he should be thankful you didn't hit him with your vehicle.

I'm all for Airsift wars, but they need to be contained to specific areas.

Re: What would be your reaction?
I am not against any of it, but like you said, do it somewhere where you are not endangering other people.
The road I was on (it was 2PM) runs parallel with "main street" and frequents a lot of patrol cars because there is a police station close by.
My point is, that if it was a cop instead of me and the cop would yell at the kids to put the guns down and one of these kids would turn towards the cop unintentionally with the gun in his hand, the cop would shoot him on the spot.You can only get smarter by playing a smarter opponent

Idiots. Airsoft is great, and great fun. But, for crying out loud...

My reaction would probably have been similar to your own. I think I might have hit the gas and called 911 before realizing they were airsoft guns, though. Who knows?Last edited by afdcomposer; May 12th, 2012 at 03:17 PM.

I would have yelled at them also. You handled it well.
