Airsoft Defence Wording

[Richard65]

Does anyone know where the actual wording for the airsoft defence can be found?

googled VCRA and could not find airsoft listed in the legislation defences but obviously it is out there somewhere.

Here is a link to the VCRA act in full:

Points 36-41 are likely to what will hold an answer to what you are looking for.

If you still have any unanswered questions as to what you can and cannot do, please make a new topic.

^^ permanent sticky with above in there

Should be covered in clause 37 but airsoft is not mentioned.

an airsoft rifle isnt defined as an "airsoft gun" or "BB gun" its classed as a "imitation firearm"

The defence is set out in the regulations, as linked above. These defences are liable to change at any time at what is effectively the whim of the home secretary.
