My eyes are not what they used to be. Maybe it is a paintball gun, maybe it is an AR-15. All I know is that they are approaching with what looks like automatic weapons drawn. I dont own any paintball guns, so if I fire in self defense ... it is not with a paintball gun.
I’m with you. My older eyes can’t distinguish between a toy gun or a real gun, so I will assume that it is an actual firearm. .223 rounds will be flying.
