    Hello i wear glasses and need advice on buying eye protection?

    I run Bolle Tracker 2's and paid roughly the prices AndyGif posted above, steaming isnt too bad and I am a sweaty git, just give them a wipe before each game or so. The one thing to bear in mind with the inserts is the angle at which the lense sits to the eye is quite different to normal...

    SAVE THE AIRSOFT EXCEPTION

    He didn't actually say that at all Jason8. Matt was making the distinction between two very different sets of legislation that had the power the screw airsoft to bits, going on to say the EU based stuff was mostly put to bed, "One (almost) down, one to go". Far too many people thought this was...

    Policing and Crime Bill 2015-16 - This is now (mostly) the law as part of the Policing and Crime Act 2017

    Was the dmr semi auto as it came out of the factory? If its a gun that was originally full auto no matter what you do to it, it stays in the eyes of the law full auto.

    SAVE THE AIRSOFT EXCEPTION

    Oh I don't, been asked so many times over the years by all sorts about "whats your angle", "what are you trying to get out of it" or similar shit. Some people don't get that you can do things for unselfish reasons or without having profit as the goal.

    SAVE THE AIRSOFT EXCEPTION

    Just to add to jcheeserights post above, its a great shame when I see someone putting a lot of effort into something and coming out with a completely wrong conclusion. Don't want to retread ground but what is proposed in the PCB, which was put there by UKARA, ATB and UKAPU representatives will...

    Policing and Crime Bill 2015-16 - This is now (mostly) the law as part of the Policing and Crime Act 2017

    With regards people thinking what was said above about RFD's not being able to sell airsoft guns as air rifles so it doesn't make sense...they believe we're talking shit about them being classed as section 5. No answer has been forthcoming in how they work that one out as I can only draw one...

    travel with air soft gun around Europe including DFDS seaway ferry ?

    Specifically with DFDS ferries you should be calling them up to book in any firearm or replica more than 24hrs before your sailing. The process is really simple, you get priority boarding for free, at least from the Dover end, however in theory they say you are limited to only the time you book...

    POSSIBLE RIF BAN

    The whole point here is that this is a massive ammendment to existing EU firearms legislation. The part that affects us is that they are trying to add replica firearms to category C weapons. That would be a massive burden and potentially impossible to implement. If we are agreed that airsoft...

    POSSIBLE RIF BAN

    1h. For the purposes of this Directive, "replica firearms" shall mean objects that have the physical appearance of a firearm, but are manufactured in such a way that they cannot be converted to firing a shot or expelling a bullet or projectile by the action of a combustible propellant. Straight...

    POSSIBLE RIF BAN

    I hope it is that clear cut. I'm guessing your focus is on part a, if so then that's a very murky patch that you're getting into. Of course this is all theoretical and a proper investigation may change everything, but for the UK the best we have is the ACPO recommendations on lethality and...

    POSSIBLE RIF BAN

    The devil as always is in the details. In Category C, the following points are added: "5. Alarm and signal weapons, salute and acoustic weapons as well as replicas That tiny parts at the very end is what would essentially screw airsoft as we know it. Under EU law a Cat C firearm is Category...

    What sites do you/would like to play at outside of the uk?

    Berget is very good, though the overall quality has dropped slightly in the last couple of years. It's still a hell of a place to experience large scale platoon on platoon and company on company actions. Borderwar was meh, it's the biggest game I think in Europe with 2000+ but was a distant...
