yeah, we were researching that part of the plan when I decided to clarify my understanding with the OP, but everything else we'll be doing is sorted. We're a registered company, and have our first event - https://www.facebook.com/events/591655387641176/ - coming up, with a permanent CQB site being negotiated.

My company Danger Zone Customs (https://www.facebook.com/Dangerzonecustom) is running it's first airsoft event on 2nd August 2015! Cold Recon II - Summer Thaw, picks off from the events of Cold Recon an event we put on at The Manor in Daresbury, Cheshire. Daresbjorn; a small island in Norwegian waters that is home to a population that sympathises with Russia has been of little of note since the cold war, where due to its remote location from the main land the Soviet Union government established a weapons testing facility. Since the facility's closure and the break up of Soviet Union the Islands population has dwindled but is still maintained as a trading hub between the two nations. Now in light of the recent events Moscow has installed a new commander to the forces on the island and is now claiming it as an annex of the Russian federation. Initially seen as a rogue faction of the Russian Military the forces on Daresbjorn have been given legitimacy by Moscow since the small island hit the headlines due to the forces occupation. Unlike previous incursions into places like the Crimea the action taken on Daresbjorn seemed to be the brainchild of a single man, Stevksei Guba. Dimitri Bjournson an aging general with family connections to the Island has been installed to stabilize the region, he is not alone however, taking a whole division of Spetsnaz amphibious assault specialists with him. The UN has delivered Russia an ultimatum, but as events are unfolding it seems like conflict is inevitable.

There is a specific insurance that you can get as a airsoft/paintball site, we've got that side of things covered as we ran a site previously for a different company. It's more the manufacturing and modification of RIF we were concerned about.

Thanks for the input, we've already covered all the other aspects of the business and know what we're doing there, just the manufacturing and sale of RIF I was a bit unsure on, we'll be registering with UKARA as a site operator and a retailer. Thanks again and hope to see you at one of our event/sites when we're up and running.

Hey guys, Me and some friends are starting our own events site which will be used as a CQB airsoft site as well as other activities and our own media department. We will also have a fabrication department that manufactures holsters, chest rigs, gun cases, etc. We will be doing custom work to guns. I just want to make sure that my understanding of the VCRA is correct: 1) As we will have a valid defence, running our own site and using them for our media endeavours, we would'nt be breaking the law in regards to modifying guns that we import. 2) As we have a valid defence we would also be okay legally if we built our own RIF from scratch rather than importing. 3) As we have a valid defence for manufacturing said RIF, we could sell them as long as we covered ourselves by ensuring we captured the customers UKARA at the time of selling. If my understanding of this is incorrect then please correct me. We are not looking to break the law or bring the sport into disrepute but we have some really cool ideas that we'd like to push forward with.
