... why?
Why do paintballers not have to jump through hoops to buy this?
(Not that you'd
want
to of course, but that's not the point...)

Re: No VCRA defence required...
I don't know why it's aloud, and it definitely is appalling, but I don't think kicking up too much of a fuss is a good idea. Even though paintball is s**t, it would be in "our" (the airsoft communities) interest to work along side paintball as much as possible. Don't you think?

Vomiting over, that's appaling. This is the direct result of all the bull the media has given us.
Having said that, it's not as carbon a copy as our replicas, so maybe the goverment have drawn the line between the two.

Re: No VCRA defence required...
i think you got the wrong end mate
there should be defence for this
Edit: and yeah and plus there so bloody expensive i wouldnt see why you would want to go silly with these, which is where i believe the government looked at airsoft and thought right cheap guns on the market ..lets licence it and not look at the actual hobby side of it..well

I agree. Let's work with them so that they have to purchase under the same rules as the rest of us.

Re: No VCRA defence required...
Yeah, the VCRA is pretty darn contradictory.
Example:
Exemption is needed for this:
But not for this:
Ones a RIF, the others a deac.
Ridiculouse.
