Minority ruining it for the majority... again
-
Another wanker has just made the district news for brandishing a cheap £17 "springer" bb gun in public. This makes two high profile cases in as many weeks (the first of which made the national news). District police are now asking people to hand in all their bb guns voluntarily. :(( As the owner of alomost $3,500 worth of high-end airsoft weaponry (AEGs and gas guns) there is no way in hell I will be giving them up now or when they make it illegal to own them - which they will do, mark my words, as long as these fucking idiots are allowed to own them. This will not only inconvienience me but cost retailers and sites around the country well into the hundreds of thousands of pounds. If you are in the UK and dont want to see the hobby and increasingly popular sport of hundreds and hundreds of people in this country going the same way as hand guns, write to your local police force and lobby them to ban the sale of bb guns to minors. They may be classed as toys, but there appearance alone should qualify them as dangerous weapons, and they should fall under the same legal restrictions as knifes. (I say legal as many retailers - quite rightly - self regulate the sale of these cheaper toys to children, but sadly not all). Personally I think the ARUs should shoot the little bastards if they are stupid enough to jepordise their lives and the public opinion of our sport. :mad:

Get a real gun. More bang for the buck. ;) Preferred storyline: - I am your father. Search your feelings and you'll know it's the truth. Together we can rule this galaxy like father and son. - Ok dad. Let's kick some butt!

The majority of the population from any country are sheep. They do what they're told and they even vote how their daily newspaper tells them. Sad really, but governments prefer it this way!
Faith. Believing in something you *know* isn't true.

I have never found that to be true in my country. Virtually everyone I know who bothers to vote has a very well thought out opinion concerning how and why they are voting. I'm not a real reverend, I just play one on CP.

So how about sending the board of BT some bb guns ? :laugh: Sort of killing two birds with one stone ? :eek: Elinae (bullet proof jacket wearing tigress) Would you like to meet my teddy bear ?

Now I can understand people buying paintball guns because, well, you can run around shooting your friends in matches and stuff. But airsoft guns/weaponry? What do you actually do with it apart from shoot pigeons and targets? Just curious, you are entitled to enjoy whatever you want. regards, Paul Watson Bluegrass Cape Town, South Africa Simon Walton wrote: "You come across a lot of people who call themselves realists, when they are actually pessimists attempting to look intelligent."

Paul Watson wrote: But airsoft guns/weaponry? What do you actually do with it apart from shoot pigeons and targets? You do exactly the same as you described for paintballing - most airsoft guns have a greater range and a far higher rof (800 rounds per minute is about average for an AEG using stock internals and batteries*) than paintballing equipment anyway, with the added bonus of being accurate replicas (in terms of appearance, operation, and in some cases weight too. With airsoft you get the "experience" side that paintballing cannot offer. * in paintballing terms that is about £50 a minute. http://www.arniesairsoft.co.uk/main/main.htm[^] AA is a good place to start looking - they have some of the best airsoft related news in the world, let alone the UK, and you can also find out about the sporting side of the hobby.
