Swaps?  Daughter, I mean, my 14 year old son is professing disinterest in airsoft.  I think he's defective, I need to make a warranty claim on him. :(

Out of interest, why two tone?

Her favourite colour, not because it’s two tone, she just likes Tiffany blue ha ha

It's good that you can share Shooting with your little girl, her glock looks cool I like the colours, my little girl is also 13 I have offered to take her Shooting loads of times but she's not interested in guns unfortunately, she's a typical gamer child, lol but she gets that from her parents too..

It is, she only comes to the range, but my partner and my dad come along (he’s 81, has a modded TM Hi-Capa) so it’s a family affair and loads of fun.

She does like hosing, hence the Battleax mag. I’m in the process of fixing an AA-12 (new FET coming from Japan) and I strongly suspect that will become her new favourite. I may need to find a source of cheaper bio BB’s lol

Yeah same here lol.. Pink or blue.. 

Also the AR custom market is huge right now isn't it, I think I've seen on the net more coloured versions then black. 

In general with gun colour customisation it kind of make two tone gun rule a bit silly but it is what it is, and it could be worse.. 

Haha I am very tempted to make a two tone tan and white xdm compact, I've wanted a white gun for ages but not sure it will suit a xdm. Lol I'll probably find out.. 

Happy Shooting

I think white and tan only really works in camo patterns as snow colour schemes. Flat, they tend to resemble a custard cream more than anything else.

Do not try and circumvent the law, it is illegal to buy an IF or RIF if under 18.

To clarify the law.  It is illegal for a minor (under 18 years old) to purchase an airsoft gun, and for someone to sell to a gun to a minor. 

An adult can buy a two-tone gun (Imitation Firearm - IF).  An adult needs a valid defence to buy a Realistic Imitation Firearm - RIF.  Their defence is normally membership of an airsoft site, and use UKARA registration (a scheme set up by retailers to help them when selling a RIF).

Ok, so the only way o can get a gun for airsoft is if someone over 18 buys me a two tone @Jedi_Master?

Yes.  However, an adult with valid defence could buy a RIF and then gift the gun to you (for example, Christmas present from parent) but no money must be exchanged because that is just buying a gun by proxy.  

Have a read of the UK Law section, there are other topics there about this.

 
I'm a 15 years old kid from Hong Kong and I will be studying abroad to UK next year, I've started playing airsoft since four years ago. If I want to bring my guns(RIF) along with me what can I do

 
Could anyone recommend any skirmishes for under 19’s in the UK
