John_W reacted to Tommikka in latest banning things that are already banned legislation
Back in the day I used to wonder why people would pack a baseball bat as their preferred weapon when a cricket bat would do the job just as well but be that little bit more convincing for the UK
Ribbed for pleasure and wider at one end to minimise the risk of going to A&E to have it removed after ‘falling over’ onto it
I know someone who was done for his fruit knife, but he was a repeat drink drive offender and able to provide valid reasons for all his tree surgeon assorted blades
He accepted that it was fair enough for everything he usually ignored

But they bring the goodness of roast beef and bacon. They should be worshiped.

Tools of my trade...
Always locked in a knife box at home or if being transported to my place of work.

Yeah agree. My fav is seeing how many shots to knock a complete leaf off.
The amount of times I've been hit while distracted by playing'You're dead leaf' 😂

If your a criminal reading this thread & are thinking about turning an IF in to a RIF, look at the pretty light 😉

I sympathise with the need for a system of defense such as UKARA, but to be fair to the OP, my son's situation would mean that if he were 18, it would be incredibly difficult for him to maintain a UKARA defense, and once I leave the UK, it will be the same for me. We'll only be back for a month or two at a time with lots of family visiting responsibilities to fit into a limited budget when it comes to car hire, fees, ammo, and possibly having to rent an air BnB for the duration.
Hence, as discussed in other threads, I maintain an album of site generated pictures of me and him participating in the hobby to help us form a defence of our own should we ever be pulled over by the fuzz with a car full of RIFs. Which I know doesn't help with retailers... but then this is the reason for this thread I suppose.
Mind you the OP didn't do himself any favours by not at least trying to explain the situation.
Just playing devil's advocate.

Frankly I don’t care about your thoughts.

If you want people to help you, it is usually a good idea to be pleasant to them. People tend not to help those who behave like a cunt.
Even if you weren't behaving like a cunt, you are pushing it if you expect people who care about airsoft to provide you with a way of getting around the rules that restrict purchase of a RIF.

How about we talk about inventing a ruleset for new airsoft sport (Neosoft?):
1. A presentable version of airsoft that highlights sportsmanship and benefits of being the safest gun sport available
2. Long term goal to becoming an international sport federation recognised by IOC so we can have gunfighting Olympics

Spot on!
I vote we nominate someone on the forum to act as spokesperson for the Airsofters' Alliance and ask them to put out authoritative press statements until they're accepted as a lazily sourced supplier of info for time pressed journos.
We'll read through the UK Law threads and select Rogerborg someone.

Don't forget our "Nemesis" the Gun Control Network. It started with seven members and is now left with Gill Marshall-Andrews and his wife collecting newspaper cuttings.
Despite all this they are still getting quoted by newspapers and politicians as some kind of expert source.

John_W reacted to Impulse in Wolverine MTW 308
So coming out of IWA this week we had a tasty little preview of what looked to be a .308 variant of the MTW. A lot of people consider MTWs to be the best HPA platforms, since they're built for it and tend to come out at pretty high quality, so another variant that isn't just an AR-15 will be welcome (even if it's only an AR-10). I'll be interested to see where this goes, as I do like my .308 guns and I'd like to do a build with a tank in the stock, but will see how things develop as we know very little at the moment.

Buying a boltie only puts you at about a 1 on the km scale of cuntery so you're ok yet !
You need to start deliberatly headshotting, shooting from out of bounds, spawn camping , keeping your weapon loaded in the safe zone, screaming at random players about hit taking when your BB was never near them, not taking your hits and posting videos about how you are an airsoft 'celebrity' to make it all the way to 'Full Cumstain' which is level 10 on the km scale of cuntery 😁

People talk but rarely see the positives in his impact on Airsoft.
Just think of all those "like new" two tone bolt action rifles that fill the classifieds of many spaces. Most wouldn't be able to make it to Mack's without him 🤫

Had to leave voluntarily, the brainless chicken group appear to be using it as a platform for itchy buttdrains relaunch into the world.
My boss sent me a video the other day of "some awesome guy airsofting in some foreign land, looked amazing"
30 seconds in and it's the Muppet.
Had to educate my boss. 🤣
