The Best Paintball, Airsoft and Laser Tag Fields near St. Louis for all ages and abilities. 11 playing fields on 25 acres.
Airsoft is a competitive team sport. The gameplay is somewhat similar to paintball, but the equipment and style simulates combat more than the paintball does. The airsoft pellets (BB’s) do not leave visible markings on their target, and hits are not always apparent. The game relies heavily on an honor system in which the person who has been hit is responsible for calling themselves out.
We offer Paintball, Low Impact Paintball, Airsoft, and Lasertag at our facility. Airsoft consists of shooting little plastic BBs at each other instead of shooting balls of paint. If you are unsure if airsoft or paintball is the best choice for your kids (who have never done either), we recommend doing paintball first. Realistically, paintball and airsoft are similar in nature, and both are a blast.. but with paintball we have two low impact options (see low impact tab) in addition to the traditional paintball.. so we always recommend paintball for players who are new to this stuff. The mid impact paintball guns have less of an impact than the airsoft guns. With that being said, airsoft is growing in popularity every day, and as long as you have honest players who call their hits, we have lots of groups that love it, and play all the time!
Gameplay varies in style and composition, but often range from short-term skirmishes, organized scenarios, close quarters battle, field, military simulations (MilSim) or historical reenactments. Combat situations on the battlefield may involve the use of military tactics to achieve objectives set in each game.
Before gameplay, an airsoft gun’s muzzle velocity is checked through a chronograph and usually measured in feet per second (FPS). At Xtreme Paintball Park near St. Louis, we use the following FPS restrictions:
We offer AIRSOFT OPEN AND PRIVATE GAMES! We do Airsoft open play (just show up and play/no reservations needed) every Sunday, rain or shine! However, reservations are recommended – it’s easy to book online!

If you don’t have your own gear, we have a rental equipment package that includes the gun and 1,000 BB’s. You can bring your own BB’s (BIODEGRADABLE ONLY) or buy ours. We stock only quality Tippmann Biodegradable BB’s, and they are sold in 1kg bags .. so if you get the .20s, you get 5,000 in a bag, the .25s have 4,000 in a bag, and so on. We stock .20, .25, .28, .30, .32 and .36 weights. All are the standard 6mm BB’s.
All players must use 6mm airsoft weapons that will be monitored under a chronograph. All airsoft guns must have a muzzle cover device outside the field and the staging area and may not be taken off until inside the netted areas. Real firearms or pellet guns are not allowed on the field — this includes blank firing weapons.
No riot shields.
All games at Xtreme Paintball Park must be supervised by one of our referees.
Full seal eye protection is mandatory in netted areas AT ALL TIMES. Lower face protection is not mandatory but highly recommended. If under 18 years of age, the child must use a full face guard.
Throwing knives are not allowed. We do allow plastic knives, but they must be used only to signal that a player is being safety killed.. no actual contact is allowed.

1. Any hit to any part of the body/gear counts. This includes backpacks and hats.
2. After being hit, please raise your red kill rag above your head and yell “HIT!”. If you have lost your kill rag, raise your hand. A player with a gun in the air is not considered hit.
3. Dead men do not talk. Do not give out player positions. If you do, all players on your team within audible range will be called out/hit/dead for the game.
4. Ricochets DO NOT count. But just because you think it is a ricochet does not mean it is. Please make sure it is not a player shooting from behind.
5. Gun hits count if it is in front of your body. If your gun is shot from the side and you are not behind it then it is not a valid hit.
6. Friendly fire counts! Team kills are still kills. Friendly fire is not friendly.
7. You may not throw bb’s at another player and count that as a kill.
1. CALL YOUR HITS! Airsoft is an honor-based sport, cheating ruins everyone’s fun and IS NOT tolerated. If you suspect a player is cheating, call for a referee. Be ready to give them a good description of the offending player.
2. If you hit another player and they do not call the hit, tell them nicely they must take that hit. If you begin shouting or using abrasive language you are immediately in the wrong and must call yourself out. Likewise, if a player informs you that you are hit, even if you did not feel anything, you must call the hit.
3. Any form of physical altercation or verbal abuse will not be tolerated. Involve a ref if anyone is screaming or yelling and move on to not escalate the situation.
4. Do not intentionally block or provide cover for teammates after being hit. All players are permitted three steps to get out of the line of fire when medics are in play. Otherwise, find a fire-free way back to respawn.
5. Do not blind fire. You must be able to look down the sights of your gun and be able to see the person you are shooting.
6. Do not climb on buildings, vehicles, trees, deer stands, or anything else.
