A: Airsoft is a military simulation game, that uses replica firearms to fire 6mm plastic bio-degradable BBs (Ball Bearings) at an opposing team.

A: All you need to play Airsoft is; > Some comfortable clothes, that are worn underneath camouflage overalls or uniforms. > Airsoft approved eye protection is essential at all sites and comes either as a full face mask (recommended for beginners) or wrap around glasses with toughened lenses. > Good sturdy footwear is also recommended, army boots or the equivalent should be worn to support your ankles across the rugged a varied terrain at most Airsoft sites. > A gun is also handy to have in a fire fight and can be hired on the day or can be personally purchased from recommended Airsoft suppliers. The variety of available weapons is vast and so you can select the weapon that best suits your requirements. If its available as a real gun there is probably an Airsoft version out there. From Uzi’ to mini guns, the choice is yours! There are limitations to purchasing and owning Airsoft weapons that are regulated through the UKARA scheme. (see below)

A: UKARA are a group of Airsoft retailers who have formed an association to protect their businesses and enable the sale of Realistic Imitation Firearms (RiF's), to the newly restricted recognised and approved customers resulting from the Violent Crime Reduction Act (VCRA). Under the new act it is the responsibility of the seller to verify that the purchaser is approved, and they may be prosecuted if they fail to do this with due diligence. To qualify for UKARA a person must be a regular skirmisher (i.e. skirmish three or more times in no less than two months, and typically at one site) in order to be registered and the Airsoft site they register/skirmish at must hold public Public Liability Insurance. Once a skirmisher is registered, they receive a membership card and must produce this before buying or trading Airsoft firearms from these retailers, although this is not a legal requirement. Two-tone variants of the Airsoft Gun are also available in bright red, bright orange, bright yellow, bright blue, bright green, bright pink, and bright purple. These colour variants allow for the purchase of an Airsoft Gun in the UK from an Airsoft distributor without the need to be registered. Go here for further info: UKARA
