I'm not judging you kids at all.. I understand what your trying to say. It's consentual fighting between two friends. But is it safe? I need you guys to understand....  
When I was 13 yrs old two of my male friends and classmates decided they where going to play with one of the boys dads riffles. They were chasing one another around the house with them and aiming them at one another, just goofing around. Then the one boy aimed at the other and pulled the trigger! not knowing the gun was loaded: he shot and killed his best friend that day! I could write you a story of the nightmare our surviving friend watched before his eyes, and what he went through the days months and years after this happened.He has to live with that split second decision!for the rest of his life! And you know what he still lives with it today....I will always remember him saying "if only, I could get that second back he would still be alive" Please understand what people are saying to you kids! Listen!!! before someone gets hurt. And yes it can happen to you... it happened to someone I really cared about in school..Your going to do what you want anyway,and thats ok...I just wanted you to know, that someone out here cares enough to warn you of what may happen someday in that split second when you decide to play fight with your friend..I just hope for your sakes,it's not the same way as my friends learned!
