    Eh? The important distinction is that 'sniper' is - and always has been - a role and isn't just restricted to a single type of gun. I've certainly seen posts where it gets confusing as to which people are actually referring to (even with the correct context). Call it a bolt action rifle, a rifle, a sniper rifle, a boomstick - whatever takes your fancy. Just don't call them both 'snipers' because that makes zero sense.
     
    Pedantic would be someone saying 'oh actually it's a carbine and not a full-length rifle, so don't call it a rifle'. Correcting genuinely non-distinctive COD-talk like using 'sniper' as two vastly different nouns? That's not pedantic.
     
    You'd look at me as though I was god damn retarded if I called my M249 'support'.

    Apparently he has a lot of Systema level guns for sale a Scar,ak74, and an M16 that is beyond systema level. 
    There really should be a cockwomble of the week award.
    Worst part is you know someone is going to buy it and turn up at a skirmish telling everyone its a systema level gun.

    I very nearly did buy the surefire P3X Fury, but I could not find enough information out about it which satisfied my requirements - mainly information about compatibility with other products. I was about to buy it when I found this alternative.
     
     
    Tried to keep my post short, I'm sorry:
     
    £55 Fenix PD35 Flashlight
    £10 Fenix Rail mount
    £10 Fenix pressure-switch/tape-switch (sadly it's just a line of switches and not what I would have expected),
    £25 (4x£6) Compatible Fenix filter caps - all three colours, cus i'm like that, though i'll be able to change the spare red for a clear disc and it will make mounting clear perspex discs much simpler than having to improvise.
    £20 Batteries - rechargeable
     
    I also got some Surefire Earprotection.

    It is an offence for an under 18 to buy a gun, doesn't matter if the website you buy it from has a flaw that allows you to do it.

    No, you're completely correct. That's why I go back and edit posts from time-to-time when I realise I've cocked something up because I vehemently in the camp that says you should search for your problem first before asking it in its own thread. What good is that if all the old posts are laced with subtle mistakes? None at all.

    One of the things I have found is that uniquely to the usual status quo of researching airsoft matter, when it is a question of what something is called, usually those with the specific, namely forces related knowledge, are much more likely to be able to provide an answer within 10 seconds than I can in 10 minutes, even if you have to wait for them to answer. I would guess equally to yourself, but that does not help me to find out what they are called, or how they operate. I think it is also possible they're not for that purpose.
     
    My best guess was that they were attaching knee pads by bungee cord.

    This would still count as a transaction, so you'd need a defence from the buyer.
     
    Common law isn't so written in stone that you can circumvent it just by reading between the lines or thinking you're mildly clever; that's what case law is for - the law is tried and tested in a courtroom. There will have been trials where someone used that exact same analogy as their defence against 'selling' a restricted item and it'd be cited just as thousands of bits of case law are cited in court every day.
     
    Basically, don't a tool and ruin it for all of us - just be careful. No one has been enough of an idiot to be prosecuted so far (and it's coming up on 9 years since the amendment passed).
     
    I'm sorry but you've said nothing there that disagrees with what anyone else has been saying for the last two pages (apart from Giliador, that is - which is slightly amusing as he's the one that's liked your post). I must be missing something, apologies :S

    Wrong (36-39).
     
    The govt has acknowledged UKARA numerous times and tbh the end-all of that is the customs response to it.
     
    Fact is that its a defence to only a small number of stated offences, and not others - it's not a defence to any intent offences, if CPS proves intent, the defence is useless.
     
    If you were in court, and intent was proved (or you were charged with an offence not in s.36), you couldn't use this defence.
