    Ok so if i buy off cheap wholesalers where retailers buy the airsoft guns , e.g Ehobbyairsoft , Redwolf airsoft from Hong Kong, will i get it in the post or will they terminate it in customs, for e.g a gas glock for 50$ 350+ fps ,
    and another , if i went over on the ferry to wales , brought back a gun about 350 fps , would you be able to bring it back (the ferry from roslaire to wales) because when i went to oakwood on it there was no customs

    e.g http://www.hobbytron.com/GreenGasKJWorksMK1PistolNonBlowbackAirsoftGun.html ,

    a cheap 480 fps green gas gun

    I believe that asking about bringing a hot Airsoft device (over 328FPS), which would be considered a "Firearm" under Irish law, into this country is a forbidden topic of conversation on the Airsoft forums.

    I would imagine also that this would be considered an illegal act and could land you in serious trouble if followed through on.

    This has been asked many times.

    If you import via post, customs will destroy it if it tests above 1J.

    Edit: If you want to import >1J from the UK then you'll end up with an illegal firearm under the Criminal Justice act.
