== INTRODUCTION ==
Airsoft clubs in the Lower Mainland region of British Columbia recognize the need for standardized muzzle energy limits for airsoft rifles. Standardizing the values for muzzle energy limits throughoutthe region will allow players to use the same rifles with any club's events or activities without requiring any adjustment. Today's growing airsoft community has highlighted the need for clubs to work together to regulate themselves as well as maintain and enforce safety and conduct rules.
== UPDATES TO THE MOU ==
Updates will take place after the directors and admins meet and gain consensus on proposed changes. This ad hoc committee is then responsible for deciding the best possible method of disseminating thechanges to all affected clubs. If a proposed change or technical upgrade to the Universal Energy Limit system degrades the capability or changes the purpose of the system, a new signature page verifying the understanding of changes may be needed.

'''Notes:'''
# Tolerance only applies to settlement of newly installed springs and other mechanicalmodifications. Over long term, users are expected to ensure their guns achieve the limit onsubsequent tests.
# Engagement distances are at the discretion of the member organizations.
# Designated Marksman and Sniper Rifle users are required to carry a secondary weapon in eitherthe Sidearm or Automatic Electric Gun class.
== STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES ==
# Confirm that the gun has its Hop-Up mechanism retracted
# Load 6 – 0.20g BB's into the magazine.
# Shoot the BB's through the chronograph aperture as per specification of chronographmanufacturer and note the velocities.
# Average the velocities. This is the gun's Muzzle Velocity.
# Note player identification, gun type, and average muzzle velocity for all tests.
'''Gas Blow Back Rifle'''
Use the AEG procedure. Further research is required to evaluate environmental sensitivity of gasweapons.
'''EXPRESS FORMAT:'''
# Confirm that the gun has its Hop-Up mechanism set to shoot the BB in a straight trajectory.
# Load 6 – 0.20g BB's into the magazine.
# Average the velocities. This is the gun's Muzzle Velocity.
* Classify all guns based on the measured Muzzle Velocity.
* Ban from use all guns exceeding the standard maximum value shown for a Sniper Rifle.
* Activity or event host must use their own discretion to classify guns that exceed the AutomaticElectric Gun limit but fail to achieve the Designated Marksman Rifle minimum and may placethe gun in either of the gun classes for the event or activity.
