UKAPU is in need of Secretary.

The role involves organising a time and date for our Skype meetings (usually one evening every 6 weeks) every one of which we would need you to attend. You will also be booking a venue for the AGM, taking minutes at all meetings and replying to all website/Facebook message enquiries (or forwarding them to the right person). As a committee member your voice and vote will be important in shaping the future of the association and UK airsoft.

It’s not a time consuming role but it does need someone proactive and self motivating because all of your duties will be vital to the ongoing function of UKAPU. Other committee members are often busy enough with other work and can’t waste time chasing the Secretary up.

The role is voluntary and of course unpaid (though expenses are covered). You must be a UK based airsoft player and have no commercial interests in airsoft to be eligible to sit on the committee.

We also need regional representatives for Wales, Northern Ireland, Midlands, East England and South West.

Please PM us if interested. We are currently the thin line between the airsoft game and horrible restrictions, and the guys on the committee can’t keep fighting without more backup. We need your help.

Thanks,

Matt

Our treasurer James has produced this informative “bitesize” guide as to what the issue is.

Hello airsofters,

Its has came to our attention that our system has put a lot of payments in a pending status and on that it does not inform us .

So if you have not received your patches its because of this

This weekend i’ll be sorting through these and I’m really sorry about the delay

Sorry it’s taken a while to double check the outcome, but the long and short is that airsoft was victorious in the European Parliament vote, they decided not to class replica firearms as firearms. Victory! Id say this is the most important legal and political event in the history of airsoft, and our community did it together. Against the odds we turned the tide decisively, and turned opinion in favour of our brilliant hobby. Please read through fully the post below from Mr. Dekkers, President of the EAA, and please share with your friends and on airsoft pages. We aren’t totally safe yet and don’t forget UK airsoft also has unrelated problems in the form of the policing and crime bill.

Real firearms users could still be getting a bum deal from an amended firearms directive, even with the concessions that have been agreed, as the measures in the original proposal were so extreme and unreasonable.
