The purchase and use of airsoft guns in the UK is legal. If you are over 18 years old, you can legally purchase a 2 tone gun, 2 tone guns require one colour to be significantly different from a real firearm, in most cases this is the colour black.

If you are buying a 2 tone airsoft gun for someone else, regardless of their age, you can legally do so. Therefore, you can buy someone under the age of 18 an airsoft gun and you will not be breaking the law.

If you are wanting to purchase a realistic imitation firearm, you must be UKARA registered and will not be allowed to purchase without proof of authentication.
