Major fire at a UK airsoft retailer's warehouse.

Hope all safe, am reading and hearing that the Red Canine's UK warehouse was the centre of a huge fire early this morning. Pictures show it to be devastated.

Re: Major fire at a UK airsoft retailer's warehouse.
Glad that nobody is hurt - I think at this point we should not be 'politically correct' and should mention that the warehouse is *** **** UK. So many fires around England lately, which is rather suspicious...

Re: Major fire at a UK airsoft retailer's warehouse.
Wonder what state the metal bodied rifles and pistols are in after that? Know they won't be usable but would be interesting to see how the metal stands up to fire damage.

Considering the intensity of the fire, they will be nice globby solidified pools under the ash and other crap.

Seen phots from Gaz, just about all the guns from systemas to G&Ps are just melted pot metal now.
Except for one E&L AK, the steel barrel and body survived intact.

Supplying imitation firearms to minors
1)It is an offence for a person under the age of eighteen to purchase an imitation firearm
2)It is an offence to sell an imitation firearm to a person under the age of eighteen.

Re: Major fire at a UK airsoft retailer's warehouse.
The weapons in there will be mangled beyond recognition. I lent a mate of mine a few gats a while back - completely destroyed, no plastic left to speak of, just mangled uppers and lowers, bits of gearboxes etc. At least me paid me the market value of the rifles and I went and bought a 249 and modded the hell out of it

Re: Major fire at a UK airsoft retailer's warehouse.
for the most part things were utterly destroyed . However an E&L AK was pulled from the wreckage which is still perfectly straight despite the aluminium ris and the gearbox , motor etc being burned away by heat . That AK is going to be cleaned up and reborn
