Any Elk Grove players here, i would like too talk to you about trying to find somewhere to play, any ideas?

There are a ton of airsoft players in that area. Finding a LEGAL place to play in that area is difficult. They used to play in this sewer like area but it was unsafe and now they don't play there anymore...

I'm in the Elk Grove area. Problem with Elk Grove is, there's obviously areas around with land but the areas too flat. So, even if the areas are usable, they are visible from a pretty good distance, making them... unusable. It would be nice to get a group of guy from the area together though sometime, just to sort of organize...something.

LOL, that didn't really help.... It just looks like an overhead view of the whole city. You didn't specify the location or at least circle/mark the area. Plust your link really wasn't a link, it was a cut and past so I'll help you out...

If you guys find a field in Elk Grove that would be easier for me as well. I could host more games ;)

Legal, playable land is going to be hard to find except for private land. I’ve been looking without much result for almost a year now. Galt’s city ordinance against Airsoft lost my team our field, so we’ve been looking in Wilton, Herald, and other surrounding county lands. Maybe if someone or their relative owned land, we could all get together and put together a nice big killhouse, with everyone but the property owner chipping in for materials. I could supply some lumber and a four man team for work, but we can’t find anyone willing to loan out their land. A barn would be perfect, but it would cost money to rent one out I think. If someone found private property we could borrow use of or rent at an affordable rate, I'm sure there would be no end to the possibilities.

I'm in Elk Grove as well. Sounds like we have quite a few players here. We really should organize.
Science, it works.

I just moved to elk grove. By chance has anyone contacted elk grove PD to ask if its legal to play or if they have a place they prefer we play?

Just got off the phone with Elk Grove PD. Here is the skinny. Airsoft guns are considered a firearm. You cannot discharge any projective weapon within 150 feet of a residence and 300ft of a park or public place. In addition certain areas of Elk Grove are off limits to these kinds of weapons. The officer pretty much said you need private land away from where anyone can see. So we are SOL on public land.

wow. I read about half that and then gave up. My friends and i play on my street all the time. At least once a week and all my neighbors know and dont mind as long as we dont break anything. I guys we're breaking the law. :P

Im also from Elk Grove getting into airsoft.
May 7, 2006 5:48am
ok well i dont know about the place i posted earlier, the people havent called back, but i do know my friend who owns a lot of land, and even though it is all wide open he has a lot of junk right there, so maybe tommorow if i can im gonna go over to his dairy (thats were the land is) and set up some bunkers, i dont know how often he'll let us use it, cause hes not an airsofter (dang paintballers) but he likes it enough, so we can get a good enough field, ill try and get a game going
