I know. 😉

The point i was making is parcelforce and royal mail don`t charge more for mainland uk to northern ireland than mainland uk to mainland uk.

Weirdly, I was listening to "Problems" by the Sex Pistols as I read that! Too many problems, why am I here? Need to be 'cause you're all too clear And I can see something wrong with you But what do you expect me to do?

@Chev Chelios @Rogerborg Paintball guns are CURRENTLY considered by the Home Office as non RIF but very hazily grey, and provided that they are used with only standard type paintballs (whether that is standard .68” or .43” / .50” which are fairly common for magfed pistols) and First Strike shaped projectiles (as they were subjected to approved testing on lethality/frangibilty) Similar shaped projectiles are not acceptable, and solid projectiles are not acceptable for the paintball classification and would be treated as air weapons For the Home Office to be happy about that the usage is recommended to be for use on insured paintball sites, and a recommendation has been made that retailers require UKPSF player membership for a VCRA like ‘paintball skirmisher’ like defence ——- with no standing under the VCRA legislation to back that up, and you can buy membership on purchase - there is no game playing count etc UKPSF trade/retail members adopted that policy, but non UKPSF sellers won’t be doing so …………. This has wavered quite a bit in recent years and the UKPSF are regularly dealing with the Home Office and legal advisors with updates at the annual trade & player AGMs The specifics have been updated in each of the last few AGMs The police, customs etc have acted upon the high power home defence, and solid projectiles etc in a number of cases in recent years (Including cases that have been flagged on here a few times) …………. GelSoft had legal problems in Australia etc and found to be illegal - No get out clause of ‘it’s just a toy’ ………… It will be a matter of nothing having come to people’s attention so far with UK GelSoft RIFs - which means someone can easily find themselves in a world of hurt ……. Historically there was the argument that a firearm is not a RIF, therefore a low power air weapon that shoots frangibles (AKA paintball) was a firearm and therefore not an imitation / replica The same was considered for air guns which look exactly like firearms Me and Rogerborg agreed to disagree Case law has since established otherwise with an airgun lookalike found in court to be both an airweapon (firearm) and a RIF

NI is part of the UK.

I wouldn't know where to start so they are going to get it fixed, tech is pretty sure he knows whats wrong and its proably gonna cost about £40 to fix Not sure if I should look for another gun though in the meantime

I read it as "Too many problems, too much time and money spent on global support, best of luck. PS, buy our new brand, we promise to support it this time!" Perhaps I'm being uncharitable.

these guys are based in Netherlands I believe, although that might be a front for a Chinese company - lot of stuff goes through NL. Price is indeed pretty decent, £65 for the SLR, says shipped via GLS. All Nylon of course. I purchased a sample MAXIM branded M4 from the factory in China, and it's really nice externally. I also have a converted SLR. Super easy to convert to airsoft, just need new gearbox, inner barrel and hop chamber.

Oof, sorry to hear that. Warnings aside, an M105 is nothing, I suspect there was something hooky inside the box to begin with given the low power. Fingers crossed that it's a cheap fix, if you don't want to dive in there yourself.

Other couriers might charge more but parcelforce and royal mail charge the same from Uk to Northern ireland as uk to uk.

Yeah, just plastic fantastic. From the video's I've seen they're junk. No hop and only a few meters with any accuracy. Feel sorry for the Aussies that only have that to play.

Am I being dim or does the answer to 'Why are we rebranding?' Not actually answer the question?

I believe they're basically airsoft gearboxes, but a lot of plastic rather than Chinesium, no hop unit, and tin foil barrels.

It can if they're in Northern Ireland. Why when i'm including P&P on sales, I specify "Mainland UK, not NI".

if you want a chrono I've got an older Hante test one you can have for a fiver. just drop me a message on here.

Well we tried changing the spring and have managed to break the gun, tried putting a M105 in it It won't fire now, even with the old spring back in. Its been left at the local site for the tech to look at it next week and fix it, they suspect that the mosfet is turning off to protect the gearbo as it may have stripped some teeth from the piston due to the spring being too strong Lessons learned, and looks like I will be without it until I get back from ny hoilday at the end of the month Luckily I have my other M4 I can use for next weeks outdoors game
