Airsoft Guns

[daz3210]

Just passed the local 'Cheap Jack' store in the high street.

On display in the window are 'airsoft guns' that are (to a layman) pretty realistic looking.

Did I misread it or did the law not recently change to say these things should be painted a gaudy colour?

What would you do then?

They are NOT the expensive enthusiasts type, but the cheap toy type, about fifteen quid.

Bloke sells just about anything from toiletries to toys.

Would it be fairer to mention to him that he shouldn't be selling them?

I have several that I bought before the RIF law came into practice - which is handy as it meant I didnt have to break the law and respray them which I certainly would have done, and bks to the irritating little red dwarf and her stupid law. all its meant is that chavs buy a can of spraypaint and give the gaudy gun a blowover.

One thing that sprung to mind - where would one stand legally on selling an RIF made before the law came into practice, such as a realistic bb gun?

I guess you fall under the same rules as traders.
