I'm always thinking of questionable hits in airsoft. Lots of times I run with a backpack on. Do hits against count? Consider hits that would in real life go straight through the backpack (side to side) and shots to the back of it. Obviously if the back of backpack gets hit, in real life it would go through the pack and into me. But in airsoft I don't think I can feel that hit. |

I think they still count so people cant abuse the hit system by throwing exceptions like that as a reason to cheat |

Surfer has the right idea. We can't allow any gray area in the hit rules, so it is assumed that gear hits count. The angle that the BB takes on your gear should not be a valid argument in this case. |

Yep. I don't think there's a better way to define it. It would just get messed up otherwise. |

Only problem with backpack, hydration and other equipment on your back is if you are running or it's not a solid hit you don't feel or hear it. I was hit last op in my vest by a floater and if it wasn't in the front and I hadn't seen it I would never have called it. |

That's what I was getting at. If I don't see and hear it, does it count as cheating or circumstancial exception? |

It would be a rare exception the first time probably but if there is constant cases with this guy not feeling or hearing hits, we would become more skeptical. |
