YES! you can paint your own airsoft gun black because its not illegal to own a black airsoft gun or even buy a black airsoft gun with no UKARA its only illegal to sell them to people with no UKARA, hope this help clear some things up
When I read it I understood ukara is a condition on sales and not on ownership so you can re modify it to be realistic whether you have a ukara or not just reading directly from the ukara website
Section 36 1b VCRA 2006 - he modifies an imitation firearm so that it becomes a realistic imitation firearm;
It is technically illegal.
@@raznet777 the fact it was a RIF pre two toning should ruin that law in court if court was a just system and not a financial sham tho
thanks for clearing this up! great help
As long as you dont brandish your airsoft gun in public and i mean DONT!!! Regardless of whether its and IF or RIF. It stays in the house and only comes out at a gamesite or on private property. NEVER PUBLIC!!!
You're totally right here! Whether it's Two Tone or not, you should never have an airsoft replica on show in public.
What about white spirit? That's technically no manufacturering anything, UK law is draconian for the sake of being draconian.
Its not manufacturing. Its just them, wanting you to purchase another airsoft.
it's mad as I own few pellet guns that look very realistic and can actually hurt you but if i wanna get a bb gun that looks exactly like mine pellet beretta it have to be two tone, it's like someone who made that law was was brain dead
Heres a question for you.
Is adding black attachments IE sights, suppressors to 2 tone airsoft pistols illegal?
This is because in the vcra 2006 it says that it is illegal to modify a imitation firearm to a realistic imitation firearm.
I also believe it states that if you modify an imitation fire arm and it does not conform with the distinguishing features IE "Principle colour",
then you are committing an offence as it classes as "modify a imitation firearm to a realistic imitation firearm".
The reason I ask this is because alot of times the two tone on a airsoft pistol is 50.50 black and a bright colour, but adding attachments pushes the principle colour to black, as the majority of the pistol becomes black. Which in my opinion means the "Prinicipal colour".
So Is adding black attachments IE sights, suppressors to 2 tone airsoft pistols illegal?
It is only the main gun that has to be 51% two-toned, attachments do NOT count.
what about removing the paint of a colour you don't like ad changing it to another bright colour for example going from blue to green or pink to red?
what about if we sent it back to Patrol Base to respray black for example?
So is it acceptable to camo tape a two tone when at an event and remove the tape at the end of the day back to its two tone state 🤔
Modifying something is not manufacturing. ( Manufacturing - the making of articles on a large scale using machinery ) ( Modifying - make partial or minor changes to (something))
The VCRA (like many laws) isn't clear on this and many people have debated this point since it was written in 2006. What the law deems to be manufacturing isn't clear and seems to be different to the actual definition of the word itself. but as always we can't provide legal advise and you should always seek professional advise if you need it.
So I brought a M240B which came in all Black, that I ordered in Two Tone Blue for public display only, I don't do any airsoft games because its too expensive. I do Re-actments as in dress up in 90s British soldier etc I was told if you have a full Black replica you need a RIF card or document incase you were stopped by the police. But if you had a Blue Tone replica you won't be stopped by anyone they will know it will be airsoft just not a realist firearm.
I was walking around in a military event carrying my L85 two ton blue from Vigor airsoft and I was not only stopped by a patrol by taken selfies with them. Lol
Can you get a friend that has ukara to sell you a second hand RIF if you don’t have ukara?
Depends on ur site and shop mine doesn’t require UKARA to buy full black gun
@@Garychicken5 what site would that be?
I planned on upgrading the slide once I got UKARA. Would you say that is the same?
Hey patrol base, If I want a single tone, but I am under 18, can I play my 3 games and then get my parent/guardian to enter for the UKARA?
No, you would need to be over 18 to qualify for a ukara the person signing the ukara would need to have played 3 games over 3 months
You can convince your parents to get it for you but it will be hard, or just wait
Don't care
🎵You and I
We've been going the distance
Aiming for the sky
With a secret ambition
It's not our thing to walk the road that's paved
We're not the ones who roam the trail that's blazed
And there's a flame in your eyes that's igniting mine
I know I've seen it before
In the gaze of the prowling lion
I'm not afraid anymore!
Let's break the rules!
And really put our backs into it
Max out, pursue it
What's a better time than now to cross the line
Don't brake, let loose
And make sure that your heart is in it
Start line to finish
For every second rushing by we're losing time
You and I
Breaking free of our prisons
We defy
The control of the system
The thunder's growing louder in our hearts
A storm is rising, this is where it starts!
Let's break the rules!
And really put our backs into it
Max out, pursue it
What's a better time than now to cross the line
Don't brake, let loose
And make sure that your heart is in it
Start line to finish
For every second rushing by we're losing time
We're losing time!
You and I
And there's a flame in your eyes that's igniting mine
I know I've seen it before
In the gaze of the prowling lion
I'm not afraid anymore!
Let's break the rules!
And really put our backs into it
Max out, pursue it
What's a better time than now to cross the line
Let's break the rules!

My IF turned into a RIF by its self, the paint came off?
do you think you could rub the paint off with paint remover or something because that would save me bothering to get ukara
@@zoonafyhasspoken3799 yeah you can do that, i’m going to do the same thing, ignore what these guys said on the video, it’s not illegal and even if it was you wouldn’t get caught anyway so just do it
@@R88FYN what do you mean ignore them they literally own a airsoft shop I’m pretty sure they know what they’re doing mate
Are you allowed to paint a real firearm two tone ? 🤔
It would be modding not manufacturing
The VCRA doesn't mention "Modding" a realistic imitation firearm. We can't advise on specifics of the law of course so your interpretation is likely as good as ours on this, but given the issues around the law and potential consequence we wouldn't ever recommend painting a Two Tone Airsoft Replica.
Mental laws
while we may not agree with them we do have to follow them...
