Nicky blue eyes Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 I,m now a registerd member at my site and waiting to be registered on the ukara database however at the moment ( from at least friday) the website is having work done on it. I,m told that as a member of an airsoft site it counts as a defence and that a shop can contact my site to confirm this. (Thats the way I interpreted that. So if I, m wrong please correct me) How ever i want to order my gun from Gunfire in poland. So my questions are 1. Is this somthing they would do and 2 . How would it effect it through customs as i would like to avoid getting a visit from the authorities if possible. Any help would be greatly appreciated
Supporters Samurai Posted April 2, 2017 Supporters Posted April 2, 2017 VCRA doesn't apply to Gunfire, they are not in the UK. Customs will check your defence and they will check the UKARA number. In theory they accept other forms of defence but that's not their standard way so it will probably take some time and more complicated communication with them. Just wait some. When I got my ukara number first, I got it on the way home from my 3rd game. So it shouldn't take too long.
Guest PT247 Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 just wait until your details are on the UKARA database!
Nicky blue eyes Posted April 3, 2017 Author Posted April 3, 2017 I know you guys are right. I,m just getting a little impatiant. Lol. Looks like my moneys going to have to simmer in my pocket a bit longer. Cheers though
lemon191 Posted April 4, 2017 Posted April 4, 2017 As said gunfire won't check anything they will just print it and stick it on the box, I'm in the same boat and decided where customs are involved i would rarther wait just incase lol
Sacarathe Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 You can just address it to someone else with ukara if you're that bothered.
Nicky blue eyes Posted April 5, 2017 Author Posted April 5, 2017 I,m just an impatiant mother fxxker. I'll just wait a bit longer. Its a bit like getting with a new girl friend. You know the moods right, you have the horn and then she says the painters are in!! Thats kind of how I feel right now. I know I'll get it but I just have to wait
Nicky blue eyes Posted April 5, 2017 Author Posted April 5, 2017 I can see this post going to a very dark and terrible place..... like for said girl friend tee hee hee
BigAl Posted April 6, 2017 Posted April 6, 2017 If you have tracking detail simply contact UKBA and give them your site details and membership details, that is your defence. That is all the UKARA Database holds anyway. If you have no tracking details wait for UKBA to write to you, but its faster if you can contact them first.

I believe I've seen you talk about this a lot, care to write an "import without ukara" guide? It's common sense, but I always ignore it as I have no experience personally.
Nicky blue eyes Posted April 7, 2017 Author Posted April 7, 2017 Uk boarder agency. I just googled it. Ok if the UKARA website is down for a long time it might be worth calling them. Thank you
