It's not the sport that matters but how you play it. If you are stupid and don't wear masks then neither of them are safe. Paintballs hurt worse but in airsoft you get hit much more often. In paintball after about your second game you get used to getting hit and it doesn't hurt as bad. The same thing goes for airsoft. But when you think about it airsoft runs off batteries and paintball runs off of Co2 and HpA. So the only way you couldn't be safe in paintball is by not following the rules and not keeping good care of your gun parts and tanks. Hope this helps a little......Personally i play paintball. Send me a message if you have any more questions. Noobhelper 2 Paintball and airsoft are both safe if you know what you are doing and follow safety rules. If the question is what hurts worse, paintball will usually tend to sting more, but airsoft guns can vary in fps, (feet per second), and paintball guns have a set fps speed that fields will only allow (a limit), so you may run into airsoft guns that hurt worse than others, and paintball guns won't vary too much.

Kind of a vague question... Do you mean which one would win in a battle? Or which sport is better?

A 100$ paintball gun would win over a 100$ airsoft gun.

Which sport is better is more of an opinion, i prefer airsoft

guns because the proper ones are more reliable and won't end up breaking in a month.

and paint ball is not as fun

No. Paintball barrels are .68 caliber and have relatively huge threads compared to airsoft guns. Not only would they not fit, they would not work due to the large space between the barrel and the airsoft pellet.

What is better a paintball or a airsoft sniper rifle?

it depends on what you want to do. if you like airsoft then get an airsoft sniper. if you want a good paintball gun then DO NOT get one that looks like a military gun. in my opinion i would get a paintball gun. i would recommend $100 Azodin $250 proto rail $350 dangerous power G5 to me, these are the best starter guns. but before you buy a gun go to your local field and try it out to see if you like it.


Which of these two sports are more fun and more realistic airsoft or paintball I mean if cost is not a problem and you could play each sport at it's best it could offer?

In general, paintball has a lot larger base, and can gather more people for events. There are paintball fields in a lot of places, and not many dedicated airsoft areas. If you have the money you can get good gear and have fun in either. At that point you can buy and use realistic paintball guns (or more fun, over the top airsoft guns). The expensive airsoft guns look very realistic, but since the military uses paintball guns for training, it could go either way for "realism". If you can find a dedicated milsim group in either you will be set.
