Got given a rif. I've not got a ukara, can I take it in to help repaired/serviced?

Got given a lovely sa E05. The thing has mad pellet spread so want to get that sorted. I live in London and there's not many repair shops around. I don't want to rock up somewhere only for them to be like "you don't have a license for this" etc

 

If anyone knows of any decent repair places in east London let me know!

Yes you can 

 

 

The VCRA covers the sale, import and manufacture

 

Possession is fine, but transport it appropriately

Yup, you're absolutely fine, it's perfectly legal to own, and nobody will ever care or ask how you go it.

 

Have you cleaned the barrel and hop rubber?  You'll need to do that regularly anyway regardless of whether you pay someone to have a look at it.

 

I can't recommend anyone because I wouldn't pay anyone to work on an M4. They're simple and generic, and I'd encourage you to get stuck in yourself. There are loads of how-to videos on YouTube covering splitting it (one bolt), getting the hop unit and barrel out, and taking out the hob nub and rubber to check for splits or wear.

 

Worst case, if you need to replace the hop rubber, Maple Leaf Macaron or MR rubber (and Maple Lead omega nubs or knock off) work well in Specnas.

All together now....

 

There's no such thing as an airsoft or ukara licence. It's frustrating that people are still spreading this misinformation

 

The vcra covers sale imports and manufacturing, not ownership so you'll be fine.
