I think its a ridiculous law. If you want a replica BB firing weapon 50% of it has to be painted a silly colour too.
I find it ridiculous because criminals operate under the law , weapons they gain access to are normally through illegal channels anyway , so punishing airgun enthusiasts just doesnt solve the problem.
Im sure many small airgun stores are suffering badly through loss of online sales. Not to mention the customer , who cant shop around online for the best deal anymore.
You can pay to have weapons delivered to your local dealer but the money youd be saving from buying elsewhere will be spent on the handling sur-charge which makes it pretty much pointless.
Another silly law which will change absolutely nothing.
