Airsoft multi-gun range and pop up targets? :)

How about Smith Boogies? They are eyeshields with a face seal, elastic around the back and a number of 1mm holes for ventilation along the top to help ventilate out the top. The holes are too small to let any BBs in, and are spaced apart so you don't get a perforation prone area in the lens...

Not much to add, only you should consider balance when setting up your rig. A chest rig only loads on the front, so all extra weight will be up front. This is great if you only have about 6 large mags, the odd smoke or spare bag of ammo to put in the rig, and any extra goes elsewhere. There...

You just have to join the forum. To join UKAPU via their form, you need a...UKARA number.

In most shooting activities (hunting, targets) you are allowed or required to self insure which you do by joining an association which includes insurance in its membership. That permits the holders of the guns (licensed and police approved if they are Sec 1 guns), or not licensed if they are...

Most restaurants get away with half sauteed baby pak choi (the one that is no taller than 8cm), slathered in clear ginger sauce. Not too bad, actually! But not really a breakfast thing. I am too stingy to splurge on pak choi these days, and just use siew choi, so I need the extra time for the...

The insurance test for defence is not hypothetical, it is a reality. Here it is (VCRA, Regulation 2007): Defences to an offence under section 36 of the 2006 Act or under paragraph 4 of Schedule 2 to that Act 3. (1) It shall be a defence in proceedings for an offence under section 36 of the...

Ok, the problem as I see it: UKARA is an organisation that works through static sites which are the insured bodies. If a site ceases to be, it no longer has PLInsurance, so in a way, you don't benefit from that site's insurance (and therefore your defence) until you become a member of another...

Whaaa? Slice the meat thinly, each piece being not more than 13mm x 25mm x 3mm. 3mm slices across the grain. It will cook just fine, even if dumped in boiling (ebullient, not slightly moving) soup and taken off after about 45 sec, worked in to the centre. Works better with fresh meat, not...

Hmmm...I looked at the form and, for now, it's all roads lead back to UKARA. The chair is probably really busy now this whole thing has kicked off, maybe they might consider a proposal and vote on an alternative approach?

I think the police actually don't want to get involved in further licensing because they are complaining that the FAC and SGC scheme is already underfunded. The ACPO want to raise FAC and SGC fees from £50.00 to £200.00 as it is http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-22831522. If they smell a way of...

Seriously, put the veg in first, take it out when nearly done, then you'd have a nicer base for the noodles. The meat should only need a 'flash boil' at the very end otherwise it might start getting tough (parboiled meat). On the other hand, in the 5 minutes before getting out the door, a pot...

I totally get behind that one. I'm annoyed that Frank seems to have gone off half-cock, making representations to the ACPO about sales not going through UKARA's framework. Looking at the legislation text post -2006 (not something I had done before), it seems a much clearer solution has already...

It is 100% not the same thing, being Muslim and being an airsofter, with the exception of the numerical fact that both are minorities in population terms. However, the fact of being a numerical minority is not by itself a reason to suggest that you should behave subserviently when you are being...

The report also states 782 fewer offences (committed with any imitation firearm) are recorded between 2006-7 in comparison to 2005-6. The 83% of offences involving an airsoft gun/BB gun boils down to around 2069 recorded offences for the year, not including those committed with air weapons...

If the government becomes convinced there is a problem, they will take the legislative and administrative POV. The reasoning will follow that it would be easier to ban all RIFs than to license them. The choice government will have is this: license and do at least three, very complex things...

I disagree that there is even a debate, or a rush for a 'place at the table'. Frank's statement included the information that the ACPO (and by extension, the HO, since the ACPO are happy to put this in writing) are of the opinion that Trading Standards should enforce the VCRA rules about RIFs...

An RFD is a specific legal status that allows a business to trade in firearms, ammunition and components (eg primers). To become an RFD, you must apply as a business entity to the police responsible for your area (pay your 150.00) and demonstrate to them, 1) you have a need for RFD status, 2)...

Stickups with actual firearms painted to look like two tones make muggings so much more acceptable (!!!) I, for one, would love to see the proof that 80% of the violent crime was being carried out with RIFs as a class of object. Not bananas or pencils in pockets (that's for Keith Bottomley...
