TASF Practical Shooting Postal Match Rules and Regulations:

Most rules, regulations, and formats will be loose interpretations of AAPS’ (American Airsoft Practical Shooting Federation) standardization. Please familiarize yourself with all of AAPS’ website and review all aspects. The matches held and described here in will be informal and geared towards practice in (APS) Airsoft Practical Shooting. These matches will be held in fun and strive towards the growth of this sport including people under 18.

If you are over the age of 18 and live anywhere in the US, we highly recommend you join AAPS http://www.aaps-federation.org/index.html and compete in their postal matches.


Pistol Divisions:
Pistols will be split into only 2 divisions, Open and Standard. Very basic classing to keep things simplified.

Standard Division Pistol:
Any pistol under 5” length (most standard size stock pistols) with open/iron sights. This is limited to full auto weapons. Full Auto pistols may compete only if select single shot fire is usable. Fiber Optic sights are allowed. Red Dot sights and scopes are NOT allowed. No limitations on power modifications.

Open Division Pistol:
Pistols over 5” length. No length limit (but NO silencers/suppressors allowed). Any sights or optics are allowed. NO lasers.
Flashlights maybe mounted but may not be used during competition. No limits on power modifications.

Rifle Division:
All AEGs are in this division on their own with virtually no limitations.

This is a Pistols or Rifles competition. If it’s not a pistol it is considered a rifle. SMGs are considered to be rifles.

All other rules, regulations, and formats will follow AAPS’ standards.

Postal matches operate on the honor system, therefore it is very important that all participants follow the rules. We are here to grow and learn not to cheat!

Reporting

We are going to go with replies to the a main thread for the reporting phase of the Postal. In each reply the competitor must include this information:

Name
Age
Location
Division
Holster (If applicable)
Start Position
Timing Method
Description of Pistol (Please include the upgrades you are using.)
Time
Score (if applicable)
BB’s Used
Propellant Used

Feel free to enter as many times as you want. Only your lowest score will count in each Division you shoot. The staff will move all results up to the main post within 24hrs.

Each Postal Match will begin with a new thread explaining the shoot, and will then be the thread for collecting the results. Please respond if you have any questions or concerns, or need further explanation on any point.

Prizes: A prize of ___(bb’s) will be awarded to one of the participants (those who post a score for a postal match). The Prize will be issued to the winner of a raffle. The raffle will include all people who submitted a score/time (and have at least 10 posts on TASF) for a postal match. The staff will draw names from a hat to determine who wins the prize.

PLEASE USE EYE PROTECTION WHILE SHOOTING and SHOOT IN A SAFE MANNER!
I just wanted to add that we are doing the raffle based prize so that EVERYONE who participates in the postals has a chance to win. It will be more incentive for people to join in and not be so worried about getting the fastest time or highest score. We just want people to get accustomed to practical shooting and we do not want people to be discouraged by the members who are already quite good.

However, the top-placed shooters will have bragging rights! We will probably implement some sort of ranking system for the postal match participants.

Thanks to everyone for joining in. Be sure to pass the word to everyone you know on all the airsoft forums!
