    So this was bought in the belief it was stock, it was a display model at one point, and used with a load of paint for some advertising pictures on social media. Most of that paint is now removed leaving a battle worn look. it was never skirmished and has only fired a few hundred bbs. 1000 max at a guess, you do lose count when your plinking at targets , lol I have another totally stock 416, that I’ve had since new, and this felt better, a much heavier recoil, so I made enquiries with the seller who advised me that it has a heavy recoil set up installed that he had forgot about (he has a lot of guns and has done a lot of mods) The heavy recoil is excellent and noticeably better. otherwise the gun performs as it should - 1j at the muzzle, lifts .28s comfortably, and makes you smile as all TMs should asking price is moderate and has taken no account of the cast of the heavy recoil upgrade (which is a pretty penny to get done properly) happy to answer questions sale includes 1 midcap, suppressor, it’s wired to deans, I’ll add a foregrip (if wanted) postage and packing will be parcel force48, (I won’t use anything else) and charged at £10 £390 Ono

  2. “Makes me chuckle when you watch on YT people unboxing Mystery boxes and they start pulling out batteries , smoke grenades ,all in the same box ! “ These are sent by courier - the retailer usually has a special agreed terms account
  3. Yup - fairly short story - the incoming one was sent to me with a mag in the gun- sender insisted the mag was empty and not under pressure - however it was detecting in scanning at Edinburgh Airport mail centre, -sent to Belfast -Royal Mail Dangerous Goods and firearms inspection centre, where the examiner would not even examine the gun due to mag in - destroyed - no right of appeal ! outgoing one is more complex, but again detected during mail scanning at Edinburgh airport- originally seized as suspect “firearm” incoming one was seized for “compressed gasses” - Again taken to Belfast where it was examined and passed the initial examination for “firearms” and assessed correctly to be an “Airsoft gun” it was released - but then re seized (not sure where this happens and no one could explain) and found to have “compressed gas” in one of the mags - I guarantee it was empty when sent - however again destroyed and appeal was found in favour of RM And that’s why they are not mentioned - the rules are not clear - because you can send them “connected” to an “electronic device” along with one set of spares as Long as they are new and in original new retail packaging. the last time I looked it then went on to say that you you can “never” send “used” lipo so it gets very confusing- I could not get RM dangerous goods team to even confirm where or not an AEG was an “electronic device”- they allow batteries connected to RC cars, which are far more volatile I don’t mind being responsible for giving postal advice lol, but I didn’t want to venture into lipo posting advice that even the RM staff can’t agree on lol
  4. There may have been a few posts before about this, but a few things have changed recently so I thought I’d have a a bit of a moan and justify it at the same time . Posting Rifles (between 2kg and 20kg) total weight Many have got away with posting Airsoft guns using a variety of services and couriers - but please be certain they have “got away” with it The only Uk mail service that will knowingly ship Airsoft guns for private customers who do not have a special terms account is the Royal Mail Group (this includes Parcel Force). As long as the package is less than 150cm long and under 20kg they will ship. Most RIFs can be shipped for under £10 (cue my first moan ….. sellers charging £15- to as much as £30 I’ve seen today) for postage for a RIF). If you don’t want to post say that in the add, it’s fine, but don’t charge £30 for postage that will cost £9. Enhanced Compensation RM groups enhanced comp does not cover Airsoft Guns, BUT it does cover accessories shipped with the RIF, If you want to cover the full cost and pay the high cost of extra insurance, you have to be a bit smart. list accessories separately and make you you keep separate valuations in the unlikely event of a parcel force loss - get retail valuation on extra mags, optics, foregrips, suppressors etc, it soon all adds up? however my experience and it is extensive over 200 RIFs now shipped - 3 damaged in transit, no losses, 1 incoming seized by Rm and destroyed, 1 sent seized and destroyed by RM. DANGEROUS GOODS RULES Pistols, GBBRS and HPA- are all potentially caught by the DG in transit rules - with RM group what you have to do is properly vent all pressure vessels (gas mags) and either remove or wedge open the release valve. The easiest way to do this is using a small tight roll of cardboard held in place one the release valve button. Never leave a mag in guns, RM claim they won’t examine a gun with a mag fitted and it is automatically destroyed. I always pack mags outside the pistol box. For ease of examination for pistol packages under 2kg you can use RM 1st class. COURIERS all couriers have different “prohibited” items lists, but all of the Uk couriers specify “firearms” in their list of prohibited items. Please don’t try and be clever with couriers and claim that an Airsoft gun is not a Firearm. The fact is it’s not a firearm under Uk law, but it is a firearm under most (if not all) courier small print definition - the6 don’t have to recognise the legal definition and some have now amended their prohibited list to actually make it clear that a firearm includes anything that looks like a firearm. KIT AND ACCESSORIES The best postage option just now for all kit and accessories is by far the RM Tracked 24/48 service. Tracked 48 is currently £2.85 booked online and that’s including £100 comp cover and free collection from home - you can’t beat that, and it’s a service that is prioritised during industrial action. Cue next moan…..people charging £5-£10 to post a £30 optic…… or a JPC because it’s bulky….lol PACKAGING when posting RIFs please beware there are minimum standards of packaging rules. If you don’t follow them, you lose your right to claim in the event of damage. Use a minimu of a stiff cardboard box, the original retail box should almost always be sufficient but take extra care when retailers use flimsy boxes. Plea to bubble wrap, vinyl foam wrap (like the stuff new tvs are in) even crushed newspaper helps. Take pictures of your packing layers - you will need them in the event of a claim. And always wrap external layer with something waterproof. Bin bags are cheap and good enough. If you ship a lot of stuff, pallet wrap Is the way forward cheap and makes external wrapping piece of cake. finally - always keep your proof of posting ! Without it you have no claim. Happy to answer any questions, there is not much I haven’t come across in terms of shipping problems, claims, losses, dangerous goods seizures. long post I know, but it’s important stuff to know - and looking at adverts clearly many have no idea (or they are at it…lol) happy new year 2023 Paul

    This is described on many websites/forums and in reviews as the best JPC replica on the market, although I’m sure some others may disagree. I have owned several JPC’s including a genuine Crye and it’s certainly the best “replica”, in my opinion it’s much better made than the popular TMC, and every bit as good as any of the warrior kit I’ve owned. I’ve just stripped the pouches from this to downsize my collection of rigs and plate carriers. it is in excellent condition, no rips or tears and the Velcro is still very strong and not worn and frayed. the JPC has an built in admin pouch at the top which has elastic that holds 3 pistol mags, and a built in triple m4/AK pouch the cummerbund is the largest size with 9 columns of molle, I am 6’4 19/20st and this fitted me fine with a front and rear drop pouch to add a bit of protective length for airsoft. £85 including postage ONO

    TMG17 for sale £80 posted - had a problem with the nozzle sticking and discovered it had no nozzle return spring - so that has been replaced with a dynamic precision 135% spring fixing that issue ! It sometimes - and I mean very rarely double taps if you don’t pull the trigger fully- I don’t know enough about pistol tech to understand why that is happening - I assume something is sticking - happy to discuss by pm or take advice if this adversely effects my valuation - one mag and nicely stippled lower.

  19. Absolutely- anytime I am carrying airsoft guns - I know exactly what I’m telling the police in the very unlikely happens and I’m asked !! I’ve been stopped 3 times (I happen to pass a regular road check point) on the way home from late evening games with guns in the car- police have never really flinched, always been professional, never been a drama - one occasion the guns were not in bags or cases as I had collected a couple of extras lol
  20. I’m pretty sure the conviction was quashed on appeal- it’s probably an unreported appeal (probably undefended by the CRown) so no internet trace of it on Scot courts website - I remember the case - it actually met the legal classification of a “Toy” - it was all very bizzare - I think the important factor in convicting him was his own explanation of the purpose of having it -“ I’ll use it on people who don’t give me money” -
  21. Think that conviction has been overturned on appeal ?? That happened near me
  22. I don’t think anyone in the discussion disagrees about the instant consequences of the public waving of an imitation - and that offence is actually very straightforward (as explained) and the article doesn’t even have to resemble a gun - as said two pipes taped together resembling a shotgun barrel is an “imitation firearm” for the purposes of the 1968 Firearms Act
  23. This is another interesting discussion actually, for an imitation firearm to be a “Realistic” imitation Firearm, it must actually be a copy of a Real firearm produced by an actual firearms manufacturer- the famous star wars blasters produced for airsoft are in fact not RIFS. And do not require the seller of them to verify a defence. it’s all made even more complex (and confusing for airsofters) by the fact That the term “Imitation Firearm” is defined differently for the purposes of the Firearms Act, 1968 (the principal licensing and criminal ownership legislation) and the Violent Crimes a Reduction Act, 2006 which deals with importation, selling manufacture and modification. If I recall correctly “Realistic Imitation Firearms” are not mention at all in the FIrearms Act 1968, and I believe under that Act an “Airsoft Gun” which has a specific legal definition cannot be an “imitation firearm”, I say that as in all my years of experience in enforcement roles, I am yet to come across any legislation where 1 item can be two different defined things in the same legislation. This principle of not being able to be two different legally defined things however I am less certain of, however a Police firearms expert agrees with me. “Realistic” in the definition in the VCRA2006 ONLY relates to size, shape and principal colour. (See section 38(1), 38(2) and 38(3) - imitation Firearms for that Act, are specifically define pd to be imitations of “REAL modern Firearms”. the “Realistic” concept only relates to the offences of selling, importation, manufacturing and modification. The only mention of “imitation firearm” in the 1968 Act, is at Sections 16-20 ? (There may be others) Which the part of the Act that prescribes the various offences involving imitation firearms, possession with intent to cause fear, commit crime, resist arrest, in public without reasonable excuse….etc For those offences “IF” is defined very simply as “any thing which has the appearance of being a firearm” (at the time of the offence and not at any other time- and it can be based on the perception of a witness and not necessarily based on expert testimony) (unlike. RIF which requires expert testimony to prove the article) This definition covers all sorts of things e.g 2 pieces of pipe taped together poking out a bag to give the impression it’s a shotgun during a robbery, but not someone making the shape of a gun with their fingers in their pocket (case law references are here https://www.cps.gov.uk/legal-guidance/firearms) Right must sleep, that was going to be a short explanation highlighting the confusion caused by the two separate pieces of legislation, with differing definitions, but became very detailed and referenced knowing how much evidence some individuals want on this forum. if the legal stuff really interests anyone, I do enjoy the discussion feel free to PM
  24. I spent a fair amount of time arguing with Traffic and a lot of time “with” professional standards lol (is that what you meant ??)! Rapidly approaching the point however where I’ve been away longer than the 19years plus I was in
  25. Fortunately I don’t actually have to write shit for that particular client … and it’s not connected to my paralegal work….lol so we are all goodest
