The problem at the moment is that the gun laws are very vague when it comes to paint ball. You really have to look deep into them to see where markers stand. This only came about in1997 when the new firearm ammendments classed markers as low powered airguns.

We actually got off lightly as they were talking about banning all airguns.

when the government looked into it though, there was too much hassle involved so they are looking at licencing them instead. A good thing too in my eyes. Can only make paintball safer.

No we're not going to need a license not `cos its a bad idea but because its unworkable,when they altered the Sec.1 firearms it was complicated enough,but at least they had a rough idea on how many guns there were in the country...any guess on how many airguns:confused: ,nope me neither and neither has the Govt.,yet another badly thought out policy aimed more at public image than safety.
Little bit of politics there:rolleyes:
