Facebook announcement – Aug 23rd

It’s very early on Friday morning and it’s already surprisingly busy at The National Airsoft Festival

We’re all set up and ready for both our members and those who wish to find out more about UKAPU and how we help UK airsoft skirmishers.

As mentioned before, we’ve got a members only raffle – if you’re wishing to take part, please speak to one of our committee members who are at NAF today!

Inside this box is a thing. I know what it is, and so will you, our members – but… only if you’re at the The National Airsoft Festival

Want a chance to see what’s in this box?

Pop along to our stall, where it will be on show, outside of its cardboard box and black wrap outer skin – and if you’re a member, you can enter FOR FREE for a chance to win it.

Non-members are not allowed to enter as it’s for current members only, although if you’re not already a member, you can join for free at https://www.ukapu.org.uk

Instructions on how to take part will be available at the stall.

On behalf of all of us at UKAPU that are going down, we look forward to seeing [insert name of YOUR favourite team/colour] emerge both victorious… and hopefully dry!

Those who are more active in the Facebook scene would have noticed social media posts from a couple of police forces, marking the beginning of a national firearms amnesty – with content that really could have been worded so much better.

We’re looking into those currently, and I’d like to ask our members to keep an eye out for further postings by other police forces, especially if what is being posted doesn’t seem quite right – for example, an amnesty inviting all owners of airsoft replicas to hand their replicas to the police…

In other news, UKAPU are officially heading to the National Airsoft Festival (NAF)

It’s high time to announce that we’re going to be officially represented at the National Airsoft Festival, and after years of skirmishing at NAF, we thought it’s about time to have a stand, nothing too fancy like having our own range (yet).

However there’ll definitely be shade – or protection from the pounding rain, if a repeat of last year were to happen, a chance to talk to some of the committee members who spend their time helping fellow airsoft skirmishers and possibly even a UKAPU members’ only raffle to boot.

So instead of blindly walking past our stand on the way to your gyros or coffee (like our Chairman, oops), come say hi, support this weird hobby by joining UKAPU, and maybe even win something.

On behalf of the UKAPU committee, we look forward to seeing you at the stand!

Any ideas?

Facebook announcement – May 27th

I’d like to remind the Airsoft community that being a member of UKAPU does not make you eligible to purchase realistic imitation firearms.

I’ve had a few e-mails over the past couple of days asking this so it’s worth a little post to highlight this (again!)

It’s time for a quiz!

Do you know the laws around Airsoft in the UK? Like when an imitation firearm is not an imitation firearm? Help us to help you by taking our short quiz (link below) and test your knowledge.

Facebook announcement – May 4th

It has been a fair while since we’ve last posted an update, so I thought it was an exceptionally good idea to just keep in touch with our members to let them (well, you!) know that we’re still going strong, like hamsters on their favourite wheel.

There are a few happenings going on in the background that we’re all rather excited about, but since it isn’t yet set in stone, I’ll keep quiet for now.

Hmm…
