All of their alternative URLs (gun-fire.co.uk, gun-fire.com, gunfire.pl) now redirect to gunfire.com. Their SSL certificate is only good for gunfire.com and Chrome now (correctly) kvetches if the certificate doesn't match the domain.
My account is OK, I can't speak to yours.
The site is treacle slow of an evening, and their stock is all over the place. Only 4 out of 14 AEPs are in stock, 18 out of 51 SMGs. When they finally restocked extended AEP mags, they sold out within a couple of hours. I've set up a whole bunch of restock alerts, but the chances of them having enough of what I want in all at the same time to justify the postage cost seems fairly low. Sad times.

Yes, they appear to be long overdue for a restock of many popular items.

Seems to be getting better, lct mags are back in along with many other parts.
Got my account back as well, must have been hell of a change they went through.

Well, I guess they weren't kidding about hurrying.

Recently bought some gear from here. Transaction was easy as i paid via paypal. Constant updates on where the package was and was delivered before it was expected. Will use these people again if needed.

Have used Gunfire a few times, not regular, but have had no problems with them at all. Mostly bought spares......good cheap prices too!

Had a few guns come onto site over the past couple of weekends that were purchsed through gunfire and were coming through hot but at least 20+FPS if not more in some instances. If you purchase a RIF through them ensure you drop them a mail to ask about lowering the FPS to allow for UK site limits as I know personally I ordered and LCT AK74u off them and it chrono'd at 400FPS out of the box when it arrived (I didn't ask about downgrading to UK limits as I assumed the website FPS limits would be correct) I even spoke to one guy on the phone who was English after my dire attempt at broken Polish.

Yes, that maybe a concern for some that cannot change their own springs, for whatever reason, as it would involve extra cost.
not a problem for me personally as I do all of my own gun repairs and upgrades as well working as a tech in Hockley airsoft arena.

It may not concern you as you can change a spring but you are unwittingly importing a gun that is capable of firing full auto well over the legal limit thus borders the realms of legality.

I'm not unwittingly importing an illegal overpowered pop gun, I KNOW it's overpowered. Intent to use is the problem, and as I intend to drop the power before use and or if, for sale, there is no problem.
I have already been through this with the authorities.

Can you expand on what that means in practice?
I ask because as far as I can see , there is no intent defence for importing something that isn't an airsoft RIF. I doubt you'd get far arguing intent to deactivate if you tried to import a firearm.
If Border Force are turning a blind eye, maybe that's because they've been hit by a 400fps full auto AEG.

I’d love to see something official as well, would make life very interesting

No guys, there's no " magic potion" on this one, I never mentioned anything about "official".
I work in airsoft, I also run my own sideline to this too, I have my own little ltd company (Just me) that I've used for various things over the years, and on advice from a solicitor, (although I had engaged him on a boundary dispute) , to look into what could be done about any defence on the subject, I also got in touch firearms licensing for advice, although they were not a great help.
Now I paid money for my advice as I'm in the "trade" as it is. Go set your own companies up and pay your own solicitor for own advice.

Back on topic, because I'm cheap and I don't learn well, I've put in another small order with them.
One thing I'll note is that they seem to love discount codes, which are fairly easily found with a quick "gunfire discount code" Googol. 10% off what's already the cheapest EU prices that I can find was too much to resist.
Order went in last night, I got the initial acknowledgements, but nothing today. I've again (I really should listen to my own advice) gambled on a "very small quantity of stock" item. Taking bets on when I get the "Dear Customer, unfortunately there is problem with order..." response.

Put in a small order of a cheap Cyma G36c and a mushroom shaped Flash Hider at midnight last night. Mine status is currently at processing, will let you know if it changes.
