First off,

I know this is in the wrong forum, but I can't post in the General Knowledge section it seems. I have a question regarding the use of a Kingman Training Pistol and .43 caliber paint at Battlefront. I am currently considering a new pistol and these pistols apparently have excellent shot/air ratios. I just question the paint, as BFP is FPO.
 
I read a thread in another section stating that the use of one is ok if its a secondary weapon, you inform the refs and management, and that it's ok for your target to ignore the shot if they wish. This was posted earlier in the year, and I now see that according to the prices list on the website, .44 caliber paint is listed. Is this a sign that use of a KT pistol is legal at the field and that paint is purchasable through the field? Also since the field is selling the paint, will the refs enforce hits?
 
This field has become my main field and I want to know whether or not I can use it if I buy it.
 
Thanks

From a ref point of view, if we know u have it and are shooting it we will enforce the hit. and i am 98% positive you can use your side arm just like u said let us know, and make sure its a ref who looks like he knows what is going on.

Thanks, that answers half my question. Now I just need to find out if they are really selling .43 caliber paint at the field or if I have to get my own.

Agreed. I can tell you 1st Strike Refs will enforce any hit from a field legal paint that meets the standard criteria, like size of splatter and field legal color. It would be no different.

Yes, if we know your using it and we know you hit somebody we will enforce it. The wording of "ignoring it" Comes down to a player that may not feel the smaller caliber round.

Yes we sell 43 caliber rounds. The Price list for the page is up to date. If it lists a caliber then 98% chance we will have it.
