I think the accessories you mentioned are OK.

Not sure about pistols or rifles though.

 

If you have a UKARA number it might be OK but not sure on that.

This is the chap who was asking, in essence, whether he'd get caught if he tried to smuggle RIFs through the Chunnel.

 

He's a wrong 'un.

New items may be subject to import VAT etc and must be declared

 

A lot will depend on how EuroTunnel

classify airsoft & replicas and how it sits within their terms.

 

In some older threads a few years ago there are some indications of them being treated as firearms due to the appearance of replicas and therefore should be declared in advance and declared to security for inspection on arrival
