Adrenaline Airsoft

Adrenaline Airsoft has been hosting airsoft operations since full metal black airsoft guns became legal again over a decade ago. They're a licensed, insured facility operating at 6457 Riverside Dr, Melbourne ON that specializes in recreational gameplay suitable for regular players, fathers and children, and veterans.

The centerpiece is a 15,000 square foot 2-story castle structure with a spiral staircase – not something you'll find at online retailers or surplus stores. Each map can be played multiple ways, creating endless game variations. The field is well-maintained and designed for new-to-intermediate players, with games hosted by trained staff.

• •Minimum age: 12 years old for public play days
• •Recommended for ages 14 and under: Parents should attend or play alongside their kids
• •Experienced and veteran players welcome, but must fit the day's new-player-friendly playstyle
• •Paintball recommended for younger players (minimum insurance age is 10 for paintball vs. 12 for airsoft)

BBs must be purchased on-site. They offer 15+ biodegradable BB options at fair prices. As a licensed facility subject to surprise inspections from the LTVC Authority and local environmental regulators, they're required to use only approved biodegradable ammunition.

Public play operates on a posted schedule. Games are hosted by staff and designed for new-to-intermediate skill levels. You can book open play or private play any date without a scheduled special event, though minimum player numbers apply.

"Airsoft is a great sport for physical activity and strategy. Far more healthy than computer games." – Adrenaline customer

• •Dress code: Wear whatever you have starting out – jeans and regular clothes are fine. Focus on eye protection (mandatory). As you continue:

• •Don't spend a fortune on gear initially – you'll buy the wrong stuff
• •Come to open games and ask players about their setup
• •Learn the gameplay code and terminology gradually
• •Once you know what works, invest in BDUs (battle dress uniforms)

• •Staff support: New players are welcomed by both staff and regulars. Games are specifically designed to be beginner-friendly.

Adrenaline takes the legal framework seriously:

• •Airsoft guns shooting under 365 FPS are classified as replica firearms (illegal in Canada)
• •Airsoft guns shooting over 500 FPS at 5.7 joules are classified as firearms under law
• •Misuse triggers firearms charges, not just airsoft violations
• •Parents can be held responsible if dependents misuse airsoft equipment
• •Laws are enforced differently by jurisdiction and are subject to regular updates

"The laws have been tuned and adjusted since Airsoft business started to import Full metal, black Airsoft guns again about 2009."

They don't allow bring-your-own ammunition. Reasons include:

• •Licensing requirement: As a licensed facility, they're mandated to use only approved biodegradable ammunition
• •Regulatory compliance: Subject to surprise inspections from provincial and municipal authorities regarding ammunition composition
• •Facility sustainability: Revenue from BB sales helps fund ongoing field improvements like their massive castle structure
• •Fair pricing: They offer competitive rates with 15+ biodegradable options

They host special event days with varying age requirements. Check their calendar before booking. The facility is open 7 days a week by reservation.
