Legal issues in airsoft in Poland

Wikipedia says about legal issues in polish airsoft:

Airsoft guns fall into the same category as paintball guns and smoothbore air-powered weapons up to 17 Joules and are available to people over 18 years of age, registration of any sort is not required. This, however, is not strictly enforced and many cheap spring replicas may be found in toy shops (due to common practice of labelling them as "toys"). Generally, the police considers airsoft replicas toys rather than "non-lethal weapons". The Polish airsoft community has formulated "Airsoft Rules", an unofficial set of rules regarding airsoft as a whole. While they are not enforced in any specific way, abiding "Airsoft Rules" is a sign of "playing fair" and belonging to the community. Excerpts from "Airsoft Rules":

• Eye protection must be worn at all times during the game.
  
• Brandishing replicas in public places is not allowed. Doing so may lead to ejection from the community.
  
• Local law enforcement (police, Forest Guard etc.) must be informed earlier about every airsoft game taking place in the area.
  
• Players between 16 and 18 years of age are able to participate in airsoft games only with written permission from their parents.

I might add that it is highly recommended to be fair i.e. to say when you're being hit, rather than cheating. Cheaters are not welcome and are being called Terminators or Rambos in reference to those characters who received many hits and still were alive. ;)

It is also advised to carry a red piece of cloth to put it on your head or wave with it after being shot. This allows other players to know if the person is dead or alive.
