Do you need a license for a paintball gun?

Question about a license for a paintball gun?

• im going to buy a 'US ARMY: alpha tactical black paintball gun' this week but im not sure if i can. im 14 years old and i dont know what firearms license i need (a, b, c etc). the gun can fire fully automatic, semi auto or burst fire. is it legal for me to buy one? I live in Australia (Western Australia) and idk if fully automatic ones are allowed. will it be legal to just use it in single fire mode (semi auto)? so basically im asking: 1.what firearms license do i need? 2. is it even legal to have THIS paintball gun in Western australia? 3. are fully automatic paintball guns allowed in Western australia? if not, which sorts are legal? 4. if fully autos illegal then can i just use it on semi auto mode? plz dont give me a link to a website because i have looked on almost all of them for these answers and cant find these answers, all i know is you need to be over 12 years old to own a paintball gun here.

• Answer:

  Not sure bout in australia but in us u need to be 18 to buy but can use it at any age, ive played with kids as young as 10. And its not a real firearm so itdoesnt matter avout full auto. Just where you use it and how. Like you have to be on private property and not shoot up houses and stuff
