Yes, with UKARA you'll be fine.

When ordering an AEG, you can request them to restrict fps to 350 for free.

(Duno if they replace the spring or chop it though)

If you don't request it then you may have to change it yourself.

Nice one. Will request that limit as want full auto AEGs.

I'm planning to make the same purchase but in tan.

Probably already answered this question, but When ordering from these guys, do you just need the UKASA number and your personal details etc and it gets through customs ok?

TaiwanGun is on UKASA's retailer list: https://www.ukasa.org/approved-retailers

However, Border Farce may or may not know about UKASA, as opposed to UKARA, and may or may not give a stuff either way.  I note that the UKASA site was written by a sperglord, and provides no statement or implication that Border Farce will be given access.

However to the however, when I asked Border Farce how many UKARA checks they make, their answer might best have been summarised as:

Good to know they’re very competent and keeping us safe, and not just collecting our taxes and holding us up at airports.

I’d never heard of UKASA until now and I’m all over Airsoft like a tramp on a dropped kebab which makes me think the border farce wouldn’t have a fecking clue what it is ! So I’d say if you are using them as a defense then be prepared for lots of phone calls to jobs worth’s who won’t have any idea what your babbling on about !?‍

 

[Rogerborg]

Mmm.  The reason I'm rolling my eyes at UKASA is that they charge £30 which gets you Shooter's Right membership and third party liability cover.  Now, that's not a bad thing in and of itself, and comes out £10 cheaper than individual membership (but more than group costs, and I assume the difference is what's funding UKASA, and again, fair enough).

However, where I take issue is UKASA claims that "Therefore Third Party Liability Insurance should logically be applied to the airsoft community in relation to  the players.", based on reading part of https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/the-violent-crime-reduction-act-2006-commencement-no-3-order-2007-firearms-measures and interpreting it to mean that the requirement for third party liability applies to players as well as sites.

Not so, if they'd bothered to read on.  A scheme that's essentially identical to UKARA is proposed, which explicitly gives a defence to sellers purely based on site membership and the 3 plays / 2 months criteria, with not a hint that the players as well as the site would have to hold their own insurance.

Verdict: sperglords gotta sperg.

 

[Seagal99]

Great news, the membership I’m on (Ground Zero) IS UKA’R’A not ‘S’. Luckily I was just being an idiot and looking at the wrong scheme info online ? Anyone would think I was new to this ?

 

[Rogerborg]

Well, we got to have a rant, you get to import a RIF, so it's all good.

Placed order during the evening of the 1st of October (so obviously wouldn't be processed until the following day), UPS left it in the agreed place today.  Stupidly well packed and absolutely no issues.

B***** is going to really screw this sort of thing up.

My package arrived on Friday. Very well packed and the tracking service meant I could watch the journey across Poland and Germany with great excitement.

My only issue was that the cocking handle on my MP5 had snapped in 2 places while in the box! (I know these handles are meant to be temperamental, but I at least wanted the opportunity to break it myself with a good slap!) I contacted them and they are sending me a new handle, no fuss, which I was happy with.

Everything else in the package was spot on and prices seemed as good as you could get.

Expect 5-7 days by UPS.  Also, if you're not going to be in, you can register on the UPS website and ask them to leave it somewhere safe/with a neighbour or get it delivered on a different day.

Thanks, appreciate that. Was hoping they'd have a service like this. 5-7 will give me time to start ordering other pieces from elsewhere ?

Arrives Next Tuesday... it's on Wednesday *sigh* ??.
