Decisions!

As soon as you go airsofting you have the defence - you dont need a UKARA registration. You can legally remove the two tone paint. Fairy Power Spray takes it off.

 
I've notice they seem to be in blue or green boxes rather than plain cardboard box

also on their list, it says gearbox's having bearings n stuff in lower end guns too

(unless you get old stock but can't see that happening on sell-out Raider's)

For this reason and just getting a few more G&G's - FH Raider CM18 etc.....

I think they are the dogz nutz and deffo don't feel cheap & nasty at all :)

SRC could learn from this rather than use plastic gearbox shell with no bushings

let alone bearings in there - few shots and the ar$e falls out of alignment ffs if you

get a SRC Dragon or BullDog M4A1 - DON'T !!!!!! yet another bad choice from JBBG

as for paint removal - most people at site won't give a stuff - is how you conduct yourself

when you got have a gun in your hand - how serious you take the safety aspect etc.....

not just your little ar$e safety - but more so the safety of all players/marshals at the site

I'm sure there are few UKARA bell ends out there so just coz they have defense doesn't

ALWAYS mean they conduct themselves properly I guess the same in all areas of life

Please don't all light me up ffs - I do try to be serious when required/matters but if you got

any airsoft gun in your hand - always use common fvckin sense & safety

Picking between Combat Machines and Toptech's is now wholly dependent on aesthetics alone, all CM's as of january this year ship with Top Tech Gearboxes anyway, so that aspect is a moot point.
do you mean that has already happened? E.G i bought my cm in june so I have a toptech gearbox?

 
He said 'as of this year' so yes, unless you bought an old stock rifle.

ohhh i figured id have to play for a month or two thanks :)

 
The law doesn't actually say how long you have to have been an airsofter. The issue is proving it, so a receipt from a site would do, but the best thing is a photo on your fb wall, because in the vanishingly unlikely event that you may be called upon to prove it, just getting your phone out and showing the penis your interlocutor would end the discussion there and then. Bear in mind that the police are not enforcing this law - ACPO stated it is unenforcible, but that is not to say that you should flout the law, just that you need not worry about being prosecuted.

 
As Ian said if you have proof you are alright, although I wouldn't use a receipt from 2010

 
so are photos my best defence will 1 photo be sufficient :)

 
copy paste any airsofter on ya fone

there ya go coppa - that's me there in the pic

yeah but he has got a mask on....

Well yeah course I have - it is feckin dangerous ya know not to wear eye protection

 
The majority of UK shops will still require a UKARA number to sell you a RIF, although some will take other proofs these days, like BASA, or a site membership and of course Zero One will sell you a RIF at NAE since being there is proof enough. If you want to import a gun you will need a UKARA number for UK Customs - that is the only defence they recognise. But for everyday stuff, yeah a photo will do.

If you read my noob guide there's a link in the chat to a YT tutorial on how to use Fairy Power Spray to take paint off plastic and it works just as well for getting it off metal.
