Masks failing
I'm trying to convince my friend to rechrono each time he plays. I tried to tell him I he was shooting too hot and it broke their lens and they were injured they could sue him. He says no. What do you all think? I mean its him negligence of not taking precautions to be safe.

Could someone sue you if you shot them with a gun shooting hot in the lens and it broke and they lost eyesight?

Why wouldn't he want to chrono? Also, why do you let him play?

IMO thats what is wrong with paintball. Its wreckless people like that, that the public see paintball as, when in reality it is a very safe sport and most players are very mature.

what i'm about to write is not legal advice in ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM, I am not a lawyer, merely a student. So this is for informational purposes only and UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD THIS BE CONSTRUED AS SOUND LEGAL ADVICE.
that being said, in my non-official opinion, although he COULD be sued, he would probably not be sued because the business has the insurance policy and thus has money to pay the injured person. So they probably would not bother suing your friend.
AGAIN THAT IS ONLY AN OPINION, NOT LEGAL ADVICE. YOU and/or YOUR FRIEND SHOULD CONSULT A LAWYER BEFORE DOING ANYTHING THAT COULD RESULT IN A LAWSUIT.
Also, your friend should chrono for the good of the game and so he doesn't hurt anyone, whether he could be liable for it or not.

Has anyone considered that he might be playing outlaw ball?
That might be the reason they are not forced to chrono.
That being said, someone there should enforce a rule that you must chrono before you play.

this is what im assuming is the case. and in this case he would be more likely to be held liable should anything happen. although a good lawyer would prob get him off cuz you couldnt prove that he was shooting hot after the fact (i mean he wouldnt chrono to be safe, so if he hurt someone, im sure he wouldnt chrono then). since you cant prove his gun was hot, you could claim that the lens was faulty. liability would now fall upon the mask maker.
so no, he probably wouldnt get in legal trouble should anything bad happen. but if he were to break my equip and/or cause me injury, you can best believe that i will seek justice in whatever manner i feel at the time, ya know....
tell him to chrono or GTFO! plain and simple. hes a douchebag if he doesnt

I play at a field that doesn't require you to chrono before each game, and yet people are still safe...oh wait that's right, there are refs there to talk to. IMO you should have told a ref that he was shooting hot. The ref should or would have made the guy chrono.
Never understood the point in purposely shooting hot. But that's just me.

They can't sue your friend but they can sue the field. Even if you've signed a waiver, you can't waive negligence.
