just wondering how you are going to get hold of your first gun... have you read up on the VCRA (violent crimes reduction act) and the UKARA (united kingdom airsoft retailers association)
basically you have to be a member of a skirmish site or hold a ukara membership - to get this you have to play 3 games in no less than 2 months at a site - then you can legally buy RIFS, you also have to be 18 - if you dont have this but are 18 you can buy two tones which are 50% + brightly coloured
^^ apologies if you already knew this just being helpful
what gun are you getting? how do you know its any good?
the best way to start airsoft is to play the first 3 games (at least) as a rental player - as a hire you sometimes have the option to choose different weapons - and im sure player will give you a go with their guns to see if you like them
anyway welcome
