No, definitely not. But if your friends mum wanted to buy it & then gift it to you, that would be fine, just so long as no money changes hands. Although, How you show your gratitude to your mates mum is between you two 😏. 😜

Completely agree, 100%, you give a kid a rifle & they fuck up, gotta take part of the blame for not driving home the responsibility of gun ownership. My son was around 9 when he first attended a skirmish, presented himself well, obeyed the rules & didn't let me down. BUT, he has an annoying habit of saying "I know" when your telling him something important that needs to sink in (I blame his mother lol), so when I bought him his first rif & gave him "the talk", & he said "I know", I made the conscious decision to allow him to keep his guns in his room, secured in gun bags, but with no bb's, batteries, or gas, that way I wouldn't have to replace any flat screen tvs, or explain to his mates parents why their lad lost an eye. Fast forward, the rules still apply, he's 26 & still lives at home, & has quite a few rifs. Some might say I've been too controlling on this, but to explain a parable situation, he's been with his longtime gf bout 6 years, pair of total nerds who would always both admit to having no maternal instincts, never wanting kids, so I'd always warn him "belt & braces son, take nothing for granted", & of course his default response would as always was "I know", & I'd roll my eyes lol. BUT I now have a 3yo granddaughter, love her to bits but who was right, me ffs😤. I think when it comes to involving anybody else in ANY shooting/projectile pastimes, whether that person is young or old, I take the same attitude as when I'm driving/riding, assume everyone else around you is an idiot lol.

Did you really just sign up to resurrect a long dead thread to post that nonsense?

had my one for a good few years must say it turns heads every time i use it well worth the time.

Yoga, do it.

Welcome, take some time to look around, then you'll realise no ones actually endorsing "pellet" guns, we use Airsoft rifs here, specifically non lethal to pretty much everything. Are you here for the Airsoft ?, or trolling & spam ? 😏

Well, you could have checked his activity and found out that he's 14. Nothing wrong with that, we've all been 14. The trigger doesn't care, and anyone who calls their hits is welcome. Just be circumspect about how the RIF/IF gets to site, and be very aware that having any imitation firearm (realistic or otherwise) in a public place is an offence that needs a reasonable excuse, the proof whereof lies with you. Going to or from an airsoft site is reasonable, showing it off to your mates isn't. It's not so much how you get it as what you do with it that matters.

Still illegal... payment in kind.

I don't know if this has already been posted but according to faceache KWA are releasing something that looks like a Kriss Vector clone you'd get from wish.com

Hi folks - built myself my G3 SBS over the summer & just want to share a how to video incase anyone else fancies a go.

SD. Much want.

I'm now looking at my GBBR G3 and begining to wonder ........

DNC is cool as fcuk 👌

Thank you for telling me what and where I should buy optics, I still kind of envy Yankees for having more optics choices than us.

LOL, I made my own defence, seems to satisfy people. 😁

Yeah, technically true but how many people actually use the other defences 🤨

I've got a number of niggling old injuries that would keep me off playing airsoft if I didn't keep them under control through rehab exercises and stretching. The best thing I done was to book a private sports physio to look them over. I would recommend anyone else to do the same. It might not help, but depending on the injuries, it could make a life changing difference to your mobility. I'd second this if you're able to do it.

Has anyone got a Mk5 handy. It might scare @1776rockeroff 😂

Duno if mosesman831 is still around but the short version is; A UKARA member CAN buy a 'Realistic Imitation Firearm' (RIF) and GIFT it to you as a present. Only the UKARA member can purchase a RIF. BUT if it is seen in public or even reported by neighbours when using it at home then the Police will get involved and the person who gave it to you could get in trouble. If you accidentally shoot someone in the eye or a pet etc then jail time could be involved for the person who gave it to you. So if you do get one you'll have to be very responsible and treat it like a real firearm, including gun safety and avoiding any public person seeing it. If you want to use it in the garden then best to let the neighbours know its not real. (Legally a BB is not allowed to leave your property) If you want to actually play airsoft you will be allowed to use it at a game site with no questions where you got it. As long as you have good eye and face protection. You'll probably need a full face mask as you're 14.

To me the moment anyone starts actively looking for loopholes to get their hands on a rif/if when they legally shouldn't be able to is a massive red flag.

You read all the same text as me, but I was able to deduce that it was highly likely he was a kid (no offence op), there's the first no-no. Regarding the legal text as to "use" & being satisfied of said use, the seller cannot knowingly guarantee the op has the best intentions, he doesn't reside within the same household & a court would likely argue that the word of a developing teenager wouldn't be enough to guarantee a rif would be kept appropriately. Let's be honest about it, even the gifting clause was never meant for anything more than a parent to buy their offspring the equipment to enable them to play together, who's ever gonna spend £150+ on a rif & freely give it to someone else's kid, that sounds more like grooming to me. The law on airsoft rifs isn't perfect, & can be difficult to navigate, especially when every month or two forums such as this get enquiries about how to circumnavigate the law, sometimes new players who genuinely want to get in to playing, & sometimes blatantly just want a rif, often with no wish to follow a lawful route to ownership & who I frankly wouldn't trust to not wave it around in public at the first opportunity. I personally feel that the genuine players amongst us have a moral obligation, just meeting the vcra requirement verbatim isn't necessarily enough, all too easy to sell to a legal but clearly irresponsible buyer, who's actions down the road might affect all of us & our ability to play (to that end, on the rare occasions I've sold a rif, even pre vcra, I look at post content etc, might sound a bit 1984 but that's my choice). The flip side is I've known plenty of mature teens who I would trust to behave properly.

The legal position: You're 14. It's an offence for you to buy any imitation firearm, realistic or otherwise, or for anyone to sell one to you. The only way you can get one without an offence being committed is to be gifted it. At the point of transfer to you, it doesn't matter if it's realistic or not (because of your age), only that nothing changes hands from you to the person gifting it. The practical position: Once a realistic imitation firearm has been sold by a retailer, the State won't take any interest in where it's transferred later, as long as it's used sensibly. If it never gets taken outside to show off to your mates, no problem. If it's taken in a bag, in a private vehicle, to and from an airsoft site, nobody will ever care, and nobody at the site will ask how you got it. The dad position: Talk to your parents about owning and using an airsoft gun, and getting to and from sites. Whether you can get a gun, and whether you should get one, is really down to them. I'd repeat the advice to go and play airsoft as a rental at least once before thinking about buying anything. It's a great hobby, but it's not cheap, and YouTube videos can give a false impression of the reality. The classifieds are full of guns that were bought on a whim and then never actually used to play. Don't be that person.

First thing any cat does upon waking is stretch liked hell! Don't forget to stretch down either, it eases anything that you may have pulled without noticing. Since muscle supports/surrounds joints, staying fit helps a great deal. Of course my preferred ways of getting fit are what led to the injuries in the first place; probably the same for most of us? If I hadn't a love for martial arts and bikes, I'd be less injured, but I wouldn't be fit for my age either. Written sitting supported by cushions whilst elevating leg/foot due to sciatica, planter fasciitis, arthritis, tarsal tunnel and (re)torn rib cartilage. Enjoying a very effective muscle relaxant isotonic sport scotch called Bell's.

Sad news. From Shane MacGowen to Shane MacGone...

Got my dremel out & pretty pleased with the result... My pistol collection (two tone glock holstered in my battle belt). (c)We don't talk about the blue one.

As found at the MOA show by LCT's social media post. Looks promising.

Been a bit of trial & error for mine, some sights fit fine but others don't, you can buy an adaptor that's listed on here somewhere (word search L85).

I'm not entirely sure where to begin, so I'll start with the biggest obstacle you've got here; This is illegal and cruel. You can't get a section 5 FAC to shoot foxes with .22 rimfire, needs to be minimum .223 because wounding an animal is unacceptable, needs to be a clean kill if you're going to shoot one. Go down this route if you like, but it don't think it'll be effective. It'll also mean you're a massive cunt.

I think you would be better off using an air horn or one of those motion sensing bike alarms.

🌟 Announcement 🌟 Dear Airsoft Community, With regret, we've had to make the hard decision to cancel this year's Staffordshire Airsoft Sales Fair. While it saddens us to cancel and despite our enthusiasm and the interest shown in the event, the uptake on table bookings and visitor numbers hasn't met our expectations or the minimum threshold to make it both viable for us but also more importantly you the sellers and visitors, we believe it's crucial to maintain a quality event for both visitors and sellers alike. To those who have booked tables and visitor tickets we thank you, it means the world to us, please rest assured that full refunds will be processed within the next 2 days. Hopefully next year we can make this event truly amazing and a hub for the Airsoft Community to get together. Thank you for your understanding, support, and unwavering love for Airsoft. We look forward to seeing you in the near future ! Warmest Regards, Carl & Paul, Ace Group

I noticed this is a very old thread, but Jourdan, SHOOT THE FOX! The fox has no right to encroach on your property, they are a danger to any chickens or small dogs or any other animals you might have on your property. I don't know what's wrong with all the other people on this thread. I think it's a damn good idea to shoot him with a pellet gun to scare him off.

@Cannonfodder, cheers mate, talk about kill the mood, now everytime I think about his mates mum, I picture a woman that looks like Jimmy Saville 🤢🤮 🤣

So this friend's Mum buys it, and then you buy it from them? If so and the RIF is to be used for an actual insured airsoft site, then yes, that's fine, she will have a defence. But if you mean play in the back garden, then no.
