Relax laws regarding airsoft in the UK
Petition published by jake on Jul 05, 2009
Target: The Home Office
Region: United Kingdom
Petition Background (Preamble):
Airsoft is a sport similar to paint ball in which participants shoot at each other with 6mm bb guns.
it is highly entertaining for people who participate. some people who partake are ex military people who like the action without the risk of injury, people who like the military but are unable to join and anyone else. i know a teacher who introduced me to the sport.
It is completely harmless when all safety rules are followed such a the wearing of masks or glasses. the only problems are that most of the fun is in realistic imitation firearms and unsavory types may obtain these, that is why an organisation known as ukara is there to help control the sale of such weapons to those who are not registered as airsoft skirmishers.

Petition:
We want the unfair restrictions placed on realistic imitation firearms to be relaxed to allow better quality metal guns painted in bright colours to be sold in the uk without ukara membership so that new members can try our sport and then become registered airsoft skirmishers.
