I'd say no as section 57A has specific exemptions for airsoft guns not to be classed as firearms https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1968/27/section/57A

I didn't realise they're in the USA, that fits for the 400 fps. However it doesn't detract from my other points. Tbh I kind of feel the same about the Bolster stuff from PB. Over priced clones where only the sellers singing their praises. As we all know in airsoft more expensive doesn't necessarily mean better

As others have posted, whoever you get to do the work to set it to 1j on whatever your preferred bb weight is (personally I wouldn't go below .28g). This will keep you below the limits for 99% of UK sites. The fps limit will differ for different bb weights as the heavier the object being moved, the more energy is required to match velocity of a lighter one. Hence why a fully loaded car will accelerate slower than an empty one. The 3XXfps is a throwback to when virtually everyone used .2g bbs so it was easier to just use fps I wouldn't touch that site with a barge pole. That's a hell of a lot of money for a gun where you don't know the make and half the upgrades listed are very vague about what you're getting. They're also making some claims which are frankly ridiculous, eg the realistic sound and that shaving a couple of teeth off the piston saves on weight Unfortunately there's no mention of restricting it to semi auto so I'm hoping it's something that was forgotten or is aimed at players in countries where higher muzzle energy is allowed. I wouldn't put money on it though considering the number of UK shops who will happily sell (usually clone) guns which are way above uk site/legal limits

To add to this I wouldn't put much faith in reviews from shops. They're not going to tell you if it's shit when they want you to buy one. Good to hear

This. Case in point, my GE gas shotgun. Performancewise it's pretty mediocre and I tend to do better with my pistol but it's still my go to primary for cqb. Why? Because it's so much fun to use

The 'What have you just bought' Thread
Cannonfodder replied to Cameron364's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts
Usually I'm not much of a fan of guns dripping with RIS rails but when a a quad rail fore grip plus a pair of rail covers for an M4 is only £12:50 it's hard to say no -
Because growing old is mandatory, growing up is optional

The 'How Did Your Airsoft Day Go? Thread
Cannonfodder replied to Skara's topic in General Discussion
From what I've heard it's the same guys running the place, just under a different name. I don't think they'll be closing any time soon as it's a popular site. Compared to other mid week games I've been to elsewhere they had far higher numbers (23 IIRC). -

The 'How Did Your Airsoft Day Go? Thread

I've only played there 3 times over the past 18 months as it's a bit of a trek for me but I definitely recommend a visit -
When I first started playing I used a hard gun case with a padlock. I quickly changed to a soft bag as I found the case attracted more attention

The 'How Did Your Airsoft Day Go? Thread
Cannonfodder replied to Skara's topic in General Discussion
Yesterday took a trip to Incursion Airsoft at the Epsom tunnels and it was one of those days with ups and downs. Fortunately most of the negatives were nothing to do with the site as one was delayed trains and the second was that one of my post game cans of beer had a tiny hole in it so my plate carrier stank of Old Speckled Hen. Games were varied with almost perfect hit taking. Unfortunately one rental was a little reluctant to call hits but a word from marshals (and maybe a couple of extra shots) soon sorted that. The only other slight negative was that some of the gaps between games could've been a few minutes shorter but they didn't feel excessively long All in all I had a great evening and I'd certainly go back Guns used: GE 870 shotgun WE P99 -
Not me. Like @Colin Allen the more I read the more I'm avoiding the mess of a site

Tippman do a range where either the bottle is part of the stock or the buffer tube holds a couple of 12g co2 bulbs

10 seconds on Google shows this is bollocks This Ollie bloke sounds like a bit of a twat to be honest. Does he have anything to do with running the site or is he just a regular player?
-
IF this did happen then why didn't the marshals step in? Stopping incidents like this is part of their job and if they witnessed it but did nothing then it's on them. As for the mortar, that's just a lawsuit waiting to happen. I just hope the owners see sense before it comes to that.

This. To me a good measure of how well a site is run is how they act when things go wrong. The fact that the staff did fuck all to address any of the problems they were told about, and a lack of any real response to the review by the owners make me think once they've gotten your money they stop giving a shit
-
⁸Umm. Freshly signed up and their only post is to claim a negative review posted by a known and respected forum member is bullshit. I think I'll take what they post with a massive pinch of salt. I think this should be enough While vandalism of a site is never good it's no excuse for a poorly run site, hell my go to site has suffered from vandalism repeatedly (even worse is that it appears to be done by another nearby site) and they're still able to run a decent gameday.

Thanks. Mine is this one with the valve in the end of the grip. If it's just a case of drilling a larger hole that won't be a problem @The_Lord_Poncho not yet, I've had to put it on hold till next month as I've had some stuff come up but I will update here when it gets done

Then they can fuck right off

Tokyo Marui AEP limited upgradeability?
Cannonfodder replied to ruskitseller's topic in Electric Guns
I looked into it for my well mp7. From what I read it's alot of work for little if any gains so not really worth it
