Deacs aren't affected at all. That may change soon though - at least as far as the 'Pre '95' semi/full auto non crew-served ones are concerned.
The replica ban etc.... is it just illegal to buy/sell new items? what about items already in your possession? lastly do deac. rifles and shotguns count or ois it just Handgun replicas and deac's?
Sorry for being naive, just fancy collecting them thats all, bad timing or what!
Stupid ban i reckon, no one ever got killed with a starting pistol, unless isuppose you batter them with it

What about replicas?
Now theres a thought, i hope replica does not mean my navy arms double 12, anyone know?
Replicas under the VCR Act are now termed RIF's- realistic imitation firearms.
They are defined as imitations of any firearm of a post 1870 design date.
The import, manufacture and sale is generally prohibited except to bona fide re enactors and airsoft skirmishers who are members of a recognised group with public liability insurance.
Anything held on an FAC or SGC is not covered by the VCR Act.
whats the deal with blank guns then are they classed as replicas?
Yes blank firers are affected by the VCR (unless there base on something built before 1870)
Thats really funny I hadnt thought of that one!Video Casette Recorder?
There is a little box at the top of the page and it says SEARCH!

I actually didn't know, and search came back with nothing. I've just googled though so I know now.
Trev, car mad, rifle idiot.
Got my first rifle - Webley Stingray .22 with 4x32 mil-dot.
And I can get a 5.5mm group at 50m (with 1 shot).
This has only recently come into force and is very complex and far reaching,probably only the start of things to come.I actually didn't know, and search came back with nothing. I've just googled though so I know now.
It was the focus of quite a lot of conversation on here for a long time and still most of us are still working out what has changed and what is acceptable and not.For a lot of parts they are now only able to be posted and bought secondhand which gives a strange slant on things.
