Airsoft And The VCR Bill

From the 1st of October 2007, the laws regarding airsoft guns (in the UK only) have changed. This is a brief summary of those changes, more information can be found here: WWW.UKARA.ORG.UK
If you are under 18 years of age, it is now illegal for you to buy an airsoft gun or any other replica firearm. It will also be illegal for anyone to sell one to you, whether you are a skirmisher or not.
Over 18s will have to prove that they are airsoft skirmishers. They can do this by taking out membership of an airsoft site which holds third-party liability insurance. In order to enable online sales, UKARA the retailers organisation, has set up a database to which sites can submit their members details.
Once a player is verified & on the database, any UKARA member can quickly check that a purchaser is a member entitled to buy an airsoft gun.
Airsoft skirmishers' are only one of the groups awarded an official exemption within the VCR Bill.
Military reinactment group members, film/TV production, theatres and museums complete the list of exempt bodies. The VCRA applies to sales within the U.K. only, overseas sales are not affected.

I just recently got into Air soft and just started learning about Air Soft Weapons and from what I've been told the GPMG is one of the better guns you can use.
