  1. The I want it and I want it now generation would not. like forums.
  2. Right having just read the whole thread ( yawn ). 1. Forget snipers, GBB even NGRS/ ERG and get a bog stock AEG. 2. Don't spunk all your budget on the gun, you need mag, batteries/charger ( if gun includes it, bin it. Forget NIMh and go Lipo ), mask/goggles, LBE etc etc. Spend maybe 2/3 on the gun. 3. Visit your local site or sites and play a few games. Talk to regular players, we love to help newbies with advice. Some of the nicer players may let you try there gun. Try as many different types as you can. Once you know what type you like you can look at makes. Unless you particularly dislike em or really like something else an M4 is probably best choice. Also see what site uses as rentals, they generally use something very solid and reliable. 4. If you visit a site a few times this is defence sorted, if you wish you can then get this registered on the UKARA Database ( as long as your site is part of the scheme ) to aid proving your defence. 5. Try to visit a few large shops and again have a play or feel of as many different guns types as you can. Speak honestly to shop sales man and seek their advice, bare in mind of coarse they are probably gonna try and sell you something they stock. 6. When your ready to buy hopefully you'll have some knowledgeable friends buy then, take them to the shop with you. In Fact get there recommendation on good shops. 7. When you buy a gun buy the battery there as well and make sure it fits your gun before you leave the shop. Sounds obvious but, one M4 may need a different battery to another ( or any other gun ) so make sure you have the right one. 8. Buy a gun bag or slip, never carry gun uncovered n public or n a bag where the barrel or but may stick out. 9. Take you time think about it and don't rush out n by the first gun you see. At your budget you should get a good gun that will last you a good few years if you look after it. 10 Even at your budget a spring or hop up change may be a good idea, a good shop will advise you of this. IF however you gun is shooting at a legal power level this can easily be done at a later date. 11. Get out there with your new gun and enjoy yourself. Goodluck in your new hobby / financial drain.
  3. You could also consider revolvers or other NBB Gas Guns.
  4. Hahaha, bit optimistic I reckon.
  5. In the past I have preempted it and upon receipt of tracking details e mailed BF to say the package is on the way and included a copy of my defence. I also e mail a cover letter addressed to BF to seller and ask them to print it and include in envelope on package marked FAO BF. Always worked but took awhile as i didn't have a UKARA Registered Site Membership. I played milsim games on MOD Sites so as such organisers had no site or membership scheme. SO customs used to write / telephone them to confirm my details. This however was years ago.
  6. Yeah I was gonna suggest sewing in straps of a big piece of velcro. Also look at Viola cases or similar, sound's daft but look a lot less conspicuous. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/112198017963?_skw=violoin+soft+case&itmmeta=01JEGEM97337JT76TGJEC0S1M0&hash=item1a1f85e3ab:g:jAQAAOSwZqZaK90d&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAA8HoV3kP08IDx%2BKZ9MfhVJKkrdC0CSRhkgAP7l%2B%2BilyqcATmhqQzXrsD9l8sRKuR4gNwLt9kLa9lCafnBXszIjXit4bAsdgSQG8FcuRSO%2FUomdD7%2B5oBbCBR4B2IkuMJJeROUAm4HtH1YB7GvKytgcTaqjZ8GIqDNhPIUCZf2BaEngpfO9NumwE5E7Roaj9VGCDkO3aYnDYjEyzn%2BaQAeW1QO9%2FHTveZzxS4LAF8j3gyphj4Kjm%2B37DCi476sNmB4Rc0uiojjVUyx8ot0N378JcCdVj6WofszUNYIudA4u47udfMmz653C6ORB%2FuvdcXtFA%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR9iT0Y70ZA
  7. What SMG do you have?
  8. Hope they get if fixed soon, might get rid of all the time wasters that have appeared on here recently.
  9. I have listed the illegal ones, if unsure check with someone who knows more. Though amnesty is not till Feb they are going so may as well get em gone, then if police turn up and give you grief you can just give em a bag of bits, stop them using them for training purposes too. Afterall you're not getting any compensation, which amounts to state organised theft of property legally bought.
  10. Yep I can well believe that, hence my advice to cut the bugger up! But keep the parts as evidence and turn em in during amnesty.
  11. IF YOU OWN ANY BLANK FIRERS READ THIS.. As of now the UK Government as banned the ownership of Blank Fire Guns deemed easy to convert to live fire. This affects Retay, Ekol, Ceonic, ISSC and Blow. If you have any of these sorry but you need to get rid of it, either cut it up with and angle grinder or hand it in to the Police during the amnesty which is due to run from the 3rd to the 28th of February. Not sure of legal standing between now and them so I could cut em up if you can. Then hand the bits in as they may know. you have them. DO NOT TRY TO BE CLEVER AND HIDE THEM, IF YOU ARE CAUGHT YOU FACE PROSECUTION FOR POSSESSION OF A FIREARM AND 10 YEARS IN PRISON. https://ukdefencejournal.org.uk/amnesty-for-blank-firing-guns-announced-for-early-next-year/
  12. Hope this one is reliable out of the box. FInally something to fill my old WA Mini Uzi Case. Micro Uzi and Uzi Pistol next please, then maybe a MAC10. ? https://www.youtube.com/shorts/ae9BFPrGq1A
  13. The Sigs before the 226 where the Wilson Combat Variants of the P320.
  14. Perhaps for first release to satisfy Gov't order, may be higher powered that there laws allow. Could be a Civvy Version to follow. IS it a AEG or maybe an NGRS or GBBr? Does look cool.
  15. Yes as the public could reasonably believe they are. Dumb I know but pretty sure that's the case.
  16. This is because airguns where already covered under existing firearms law when the VCRB was written. UK firearms law is a disjointed mess and needs totally overhauling. However if they ever get round to it it will be bad news for some shooting sports. Every Airsofter, Paintballer, Air Gunner Shotgunner, Rifle Shooter and Pistol Shooter should get together and join organizations and fight every proposed law, not just the ones that affect them. Otherwise one day al we'll have left is Fortnight!
  17. Looks gorgeous but with cost of kit and base gun its gonna be sadly beyond most softers budget.
  18. A short throw lever. https://bristolbasedairsoft.co.uk/products/g-g-levar-short-stroke-kit?srsltid=AfmBOoqRWxQWFn1bBO70jxbDjqaVI8AKxPFfx1L7J217l09XUpIXoHn-
  19. Royal Mail Special Delivery takes RIFS as well. Other than PF24/4 and RM SD no one else will take them from private customers within the UK.
  20. Shell company for unlicensed guns. lol
  21. Seems to be associate with Airsoft Kent as they have a review or that site. only that one and the page marked Discord takes you to the same page. So i'm guessing its an online extension of a site shop.
  22. December release according to Octagon.
  23. A free Shield SMS from Shield Sites. warranty replacement for my burnt out MOD Surplus one. The guy said it was the oldest one he had seen in ages.
  24. What make is that mate, is it the SRC? Thats the only CO2 one i'm aware of. If it is is it compatible with any other makes?
  25. Anyone managed t get one yet? Was due for early October release.
