RiF stands for Realistic Imitation Firearm, and is a term used to describe a non two-tone Airsoft replica, which is realistic in appearance to an average person. A Defence under the VCRA is required to buy a RiF in the UK.

Category: General Queries

No, but UKARA or some other defence is required if you intend to purchase a RIF. You do not need a defence to sell one, however you must ensure that your buyer has a valid defence, otherwise YOU are breaking the law and not the buyer.

Category: General Queries

Yes, Basic listings are free to individual Airsofters, but you can upgrade your ad to help support the site.  We receive no other funding so please help us if you can!

A bump is basically sending your ad back to the top of the ad listings, just like a newly-listed ad.   This can help to boost interest in your ad if it has been listed for a while, or you just want to sell your item quicker.  You will need to purchase a bump pack in order to do this.

When we do delete an ad it will only be because it breaches the terms of use of the site, or does not contain a physical Guntag/Username matching your account username as per the image rules.

The most likely reason for an ad not being approved at all is that you have not added your username and date on a card in the pictures you uploaded.  This must match your account username (the one you use to log in).   We also do not accept usernames added or overlaid into your pictures by computer editing software.

Ads posted without the date, with usernames that don’t match, or without a Guntag/Username card at all will be removed without notice!

Ads are usually approved within a few hours, but it depends how busy the site is and how many moderators are online.  They are reviewed on a first-come-first-served basis with the exception of featured ads which are fast tracked.  Please don’t email us to ask when your ad will be approved, as this will take our time away from moderating ads!

Site Issues

As soon as an ad is published it will start to be displayed In the featured section. The ads in this section rotate amongst all the currently featured ads so they are not all the same every time; Every visitor that views or refreshes the homepage will see a different set of featured ads, so your ad will not be shown every time.

Your featured ad is also highlighted on category/search result listing pages so it will be seen by many people each day.
