  2. Yes we should. 166F is not considered enough to withstand 350fps at .2g that is clear, documented and tested vigorously by an independent entity who's only bias is safety.

     

    To argue otherwise is naive and moronic.

     

    Just because they say tactical and have pictures of uber l33oporor8rz does bit make them credible ballistic glasses.

    It's nothing more than marketing hype.

     

    AFAIK it was "Low energy impact (marked F) can withstand a 6mm steel ball weighing 0.86 g and traveling at least 45 m/s at the time of impact".

     

    Im not sure of the maths to do the calculations for the above :ph34r: , but arent ESS Glasses 166F rated? and we all know what they can withstand

  3. So if I had two tone but paint came off, is this manufacturing ? Or absolutely legal. And you can't sell to under 18, but gift is fine.

     

    Mack: but it's illegal for them to sell me one so how can I buy one :P If its illegal to sell cigarets is it legal to buy them? No!

     

    If you bought one thats fine, The seller is the one commiting the offence, not you

  4. How is that legal if law stops you from buying one. Its you who hold defence to buy which makes it legal but if you don't have defence it's still legal to poses one

     

    It doesnt stop you from buying one. ITS NOT ILLEGAL TO BUY

     

    Its illegal to MANUFACTURE, IMPORT AND SELL

     

    You provide the seller with a defence (Site membership number AKA UKARA)

     

    You realize thousands of RIFS were sold and owned by people pre 2006? when the new law came in were these people forced to hand them over due to owning them?

  5. Well that's great new, I can buy RIF abroad and have it shipped to UK since it's perfectly legal to own one

     

    No beacause that would be importing. Have you even read the VCRA?

     

    (1) A person is guilty of an offence if—

     

    (a) he manufactures a realistic imitation firearm;

     

    (b)he modifies an imitation firearm so that it becomes a realistic imitation firearm;

     

    © he sells a realistic imitation firearm; or

     

    (d) he brings a realistic imitation firearm into Great Britain or causes one to be brought into Great Britain.

  6. Without defence it is illegal, and here is the problem, I understand having museum, films and theater on the list, you have a justified reason that can be proven with document etc. When VCRA was introduced Airsoft skirmishes were not included on the list,this was later added by secretary of state. There should be separate section for Use of RIF for skirmishes. I know UKARA was adapted by shops as a valid defence, but there is nothing about UKARA in the VCRA so in theory you can visit shop with the letter from your local insured site saying you attend skirmishes regularly and therefore you have defence to buy RIF.

     

    Gifting of RIF should be made illegal as well, If its ok to gift then I can open a shop and sell magazine for £200 with a free gift of RIF

     

    No its not. Please show me where it says anywhere in UK law that its illegal to own a RIF.

  7. This complicate things even more,

     

     

     

     

     

    They need to define "regular" so someone hold UKARA and didn't attend any skirmishes for the past 11 months so he poses RIF illegally since he did not attend any activity which would grand him defence from prosecution.

    Scenario 2 You visit site regular pay in cash and there is no record no witness that you have attended any of them, therefore you poses RIF illegally if you unable to prove otherwise.

     

    It's not illegal to own a RIF, it's not even illegal to buy one if your over 18

  8. ICS M4 hop ups are proprietry so unless your capable of modding another hop up to fit then I wouldnt bother, on the plus side ICS M4 hops a generally very good. Give the barrel a good clean and perhaps change the hop up rubber. You can use non ICS Rails if you change the barrel nut to a G&P.

  9.  

    thanks for the input guys! appreciated!

    also mack I had looked at that slide on patrol base! £60 on there plus delivery so £37 from that site u linked plus free delivery is defo worth a punt from me I reckon! have u ordered from that site before ? all safe and secure etc ? also is that the SAI trigger u have on youre glock ?

    thanks again

     

     

    I and many on here have used that site probably hundreds of times. They can be hit and miss with having stuff in stock but if they dont have it you will get a refund. Its the WE version of the SAI trigger also got it from the same place

  10. Has anyone imported a gun from these guys? They have the rifle I want, in a colour that isn't commonly available here, for a very good price? Are the guns genuine and what would be the risks from shipping from overseas in general? I would be UKARA registered but would someone at UK customs throw a wobbly?

     

    Guns are genuine yes. No risks unless you dont have UKARA/Defence in which case customs will send it to the Smelter ;)
