You should not play in the rain because if it gets on your board it will get fried. Thats what happen to my friends gun but a light rain is ok.

as long as you keep the front part of the grip frame dry (area behind the trigger, and along the front of the grip) you should be fine. the rest of the gun is prettymuch sealed.

It's all sealed to play in. Unless you superman your Angel into a mud puddle you should be good! Don't worry about playing in normal down poor your Angel should be fine.

The only bad thing about the rain is the havoc it plays with your accuracy, a drizzle isn't bad but when it rains it's horrible. Never had a problem with any Angel I've had in the rain.

you will be fine. my old CNC ir3 went completly under water when a team mate used it in practice. he was scared he fried it at first but it was still on and working fine, which was more than i could say for the paint, had to be dumped and fresh, dry paint was used.
it actually shot the best out of all the guns all day long! lol

angels are made of much higher quality than many other electro markers, dont worry about needing a mechanical backup for rainy days, just rock on with your machinegun.

I have played in the rain with my 4 more than once, and it's fine...I don't understand why everyone is always worried about this...people have been playing in the rain with Angels since the late 90's....stop worrying about the rain, and worry about making sure you can hit someone;)

the rain wont hurt the gun more than it will hurt you...
