😳 Spellin baad. Trust me it'll get worse, Wait until I get a bee in my bonnet about something :lol:

Your spelling's bad? Is that why you're imp1864 when it should have been Jim1974? :rofl:

I can see I'm going to have to keep my eye on this lot :lol:

warren hasn't posted much recently, so they're obviously looking for a new target. :lol:

Sorry for the necro post, but I didn't want to start a new thread just for this. How long before you hear if you have got AFRA membership? I sent off the application about 2 weeks ago, but heard nothing back so far (funnily enough bit of a theme going on here, neither suesue or SOF have sent my gear and thats been 2 weeks as well.

I know that PD (of Afra) has had a backlog of memberships to get through... it may be something to do with that...

PD has posted that he has caught up with the backlog of new member applications.

Hopefully your card will pop through your letterbox soon? :D

Same here, but I'm in no hurry. Need some money before I can use it to buy stuff. :slap:

My card arrived this morning, cheers CW.

Just got to think of some guns we "need" now.

The problem I have is removing the ones I don't 'need' from the huge list of guns I want. :roll: :lol:

I spoke to airsoft armouries today, They are happy to accept AFRA membership. The boss, while I was on the phone had a look at the AFRA website and was impressed with what he saw. So happy buying People.

Yes had a word with them as well, they require you to sent in the PLI doc from AFRA. Presently I can't get into that any one else have this issue. I have PM the site admin.

How would a retailer know I'm AFRA registered? I've registered at the site, but I don't seem to have any membership number or anything. :?

Now the AFRA thing is kicking in we will be trying to make all these admin things easier - just working on risk assesments at the moment, I'll move onto retailers later.
Have a word with ActionHobbies - I think all they need is a photocopy of your membership card, copy of PLI and possibly some other proof of age/ID.

Remember, not all retailers know anything other that UKARA status, so don't go kicking their door down if they refuse to sell (they are quite a liberty to refuse any sale, indeed it is a legal requirement that they satisfy themselves of legal exemption to VCRA and it's the seller who is breaking the law not the buyer).
