Does the piss filled water bottle in the background come with it?

In the US that's called a tactical abortion tool.

It's optional, so disable it? https://airsoft-forums.uk/settings/account-security

Well that's a public place and since you wouldn't have a good excuse for waving it around there you would be arrested under section 19 of the Firearms Act. Highways Act would be irrelevant.

It's an offence only without reasonably excuse. If you're moving if from A to B, that is the excuse. I've done similar in the city before, because that's where the RFD was. Firearms aren't teleported to their destination, someone has to move them. Section 36 is for RIFs, the OP isn't importing a RIF.

I can only presume you've used the same password everywhere? If so, lesson learnt. Use random and unique passwords with a password manager. Your password was probably obtained from a breach on another site, they then only have to search your username and find what other sites you use and try it there.

I'm sure the ever proactive admin on Zeroin will do everything he can to ban those accounts and try and prevent this from happening in the future.

Click on "Contact Advertiser" and you can send them a message. I suspect you can't make an offer because the listing has ended.

Batter powered? Is this like when you convert your car to run on vegetable oil?

The part I quoted. You can import without UKARA, and Border Force are aware of the law and the defences listed under section 37.

Not true at all.

"All firearms, other than low-powered air weapons sent within the UK (air rifles, air guns and air pistols)" Airsoft guns aren't air rifles, air guns or air pistols, same applies to paintball guns. Airsoft would fall under imitation, or perhaps toy guns.

It says "No", which means it cannot be sent.

I don't know where you got that information from, but the page below clearly says that replicas/imitations are not allowed. https://www.parcelforce.com/help-and-advice/sending/prohibitions-and-restrictions As has been mentioned, businesses can send them, but not individuals.

Not any more he isn't. He was involved in a deal, didn't like how it turned out, and started deleting the other guys posts, so "god complex" seems very applicable. Don't worry though, the scammers are still there, they don't get banned. Classic ZeroIn.

By the way, when did you order this @Cr0-Magnon? And did it reach Heathrow or Coventry?

Where did Border Force state it was a firearm?

Mother of god, that's the worst thing I've seen in a while. Falling to bits and shilling a corporate clothing brand in one not so neat package. What a tool.

" it’s very impressive but I’m a plinker and not a gamer so way above my needs" What? He was hoping it would perform worse than it does? The reasons people give make no sense.

It's not that it's part of a the barrel assembly, it's that parts that reduce noise and/or flash are restricted. "...an accessory to a lethal barrelled weapon or a prohibited weapon where the accessory is designed or adapted to diminish the noise or flash caused by firing the weapon."

Flash hiders are restricted under the Firearms Act 1968, so I wouldn't recommend trying to import one of those.

But how do you know if it's been used or not? The only way to find out is to try and fire it. But you also have the problem with the battery running flat over time, or the gas leaking out, either way at some point it just won't fire regardless if it's been used or not. Which is why it should be either non-functioning, or be able to dismantle and reload again.

If you really are concerned about dimensions, then getting a KWS Mini UZI is probably best, but not the cheapest. Otherwise you're going to have to do a lot of work to get the right shape. Having it only fire in 1 setting is odd, do you really need it to fire? What if something goes wrong and it doesn't work, are you going to throw it away and build another one? I get that in the movie that's how it functions, but you don't need to replicate it's function, just it's aesthetics surely... If the real weapon in the movie fired, I can guarantee that it could be taken apart since it will be a live firearm. The picture above shows a clam style casing that comes apart.

TM already do an automatic UZI, or are specifically after a mini UZI? Why do you want it to be impossible to disassemble?

Image doesn't work, requires permission to view I presume.
