I guess for Saturday's game I need a barrel condom. What else could I use other than real barrel condoms without getting kicked out?
If that's the case, I need to buy four of them :/

Just figured I would throw this out there, in case you were thinking that you needed barrel condoms on your pistols. If you have a holster for your pistol, you take the mag out and holster the pistol. There is no need for a barrel condom on holstered pistols.

If you are going to no limits, you'll only need a barrel condom for the gun that you are currently using. You can just keep the other 3 guns in a box or gun case or in your car. You wouldn't want to leave them lying around in the open anyways.

Last time I was at no limits I've seen people use socks to cover the barrel, but I would go out and buy a professional barrel bag.

You can buy a barrel condom for like, $5 at any paintball shop. No Limits might have some on hand to sell you. If you call them ahead of time, I'm sure they'll bring some to sell you. Just spend the tiny amount of money on a real barrel condom that will keep you and everybody else in the parking lot safer.

This year from the new insurance they are requiring actual barrel condoms and nothing homemade. If you have a homemade one (sock, glove, etc.) you will be told to find a real one. Knief is right, they do sell them for I think $6 or $7 so I suggest going to Dunham's or another sporting goods store and buying them for a little bit cheaper.

That cheap. Thought they were $15. So it's fine if I have three of my weapons in my snowboarding bag without condoms then have the last one out with a condom on? I have all four of my main weapons fixed (G3, SVD, M-60 and AK) so I would like to use them in each game plus I am getting dropped off so I can't put them in my car. Don't worry, all the mags will be taken out, not the M-60's. That's a bitch to get fully off.

It's simple. If you have a gun out of its case or bag, it needs a condom. If you don't have a condom on it, then it has to stay in it's case or bag. No matter how you switch your guns around between games, those two rules must be followed.
Alternatively, you could leave everything in the bag and take them all out onto the field with you. Once you're on the field, you don't need the condoms. But you can't have them out in the safe zone without the condom.

This is the truth. After some events that took place at the last game, things are going to be much stricter. No Limits will have covers for sale and rent, you don't have one, your weapon stays in the bag or case until you are on the field. No exceptions. You can thank the douchebags who think that this is their backyard and they can do what ever they want.

Honestly, come on, guys. Barrel condoms aren't that expensive. They should be a part of your regular airsoft equipment even if you don't play at a field that requires them.
The lamers who are putting socks, gloves or real condoms on their rifles aren't funny; they're just dumbasses.

Honestly, a lot of people have no idea of general firearms safety. At NL3 I had to take the mag out of a player's gun and put it on safe because he was prancing back to the safe zone with his finger on the trigger.

You can find barrel condoms even cheaper online. If you ever make an order from Evike, buy a few. They are like $1 each.

Pardon my question, but would keeping the rifle currently being used in its drop case be considered okay? Here's a pic of what I mean. img849.imageshack.us/img849/4230/dscf7620q.jpgI used an aks-74 version last time I was on a field whenever I was in the safe zone, and I had no problems. I asked the event runners beforehand if it was okay of course. I would assume a case designed to hold a real Kalashnikov safely whilst jumping out of an aircraft would be just as effective as a barrel condom.
