What is UKARA and UKASA?

UKARA

UKARA stands for ‘United Kingdom Airsoft Retailers Association’ and is essentially a big database of all registered Airsoft Skirmishers in the UK, which allows Retailers to check an individual to see if they are eligible to purchase Replica Imitation Firearms (RIF). A UKARA Registration is recognised as a valid defence against purchasing an Airsoft Gun.

To obtain a UKARA registration an individual must visit a UKARA registered Airsoft Skirmish Site 3 times or more outside of 56 Days or 8 Weeks, at which point the site can stamp your paperwork and enter your details into the UKARA Database. Once you have received your UKARA number you can order a Realistic Imitation Firearm from us. 

If you do not wish to Skirmish or simply want to target shoot, then in order to obtain the weapon you must either have an alternate valid defence or have the weapon in Two-Tone colours. Any weapon we have can be Sprayed Two-Tone in order to meet these requirements.
