Want to buy a realistic-looking black airsoft gun (RIF) from onlyBBguns? Because these guns look so real, UK law (the VCRA Act) requires you to have a valid reason, called a "defence," to own one. Essentially, you need to prove you're buying it for airsoft skirmishing (the sport itself), not for any other purpose.
Here's how you can demonstrate your defence to onlyBBguns and buy a black airsoft gun:
Don't have either of those? No problem! You can still buy the airsoft gun. onlyBBguns can paint it in a two-tone colour scheme. This means part of the gun will be sprayed a bright, non-realistic colour. This makes the gun a "non-realistic imitation firearm" and avoids the restrictions of the VCRA Act. Anyone over 18 can legally buy a two-tone airsoft gun.

The CL Project x Ares 4-inch Combat Version is a competition-ready CO2 revolver engineered in collaboration with legendary gunsmith Clarence Lai. Built on a full-metal L-Frame, this "Combat Version" features a custom CL Project spring set for a feather-light trigger, a distinctive bronze hexagon cylinder, and an adjustable TDC hop-up for superior accuracy. Supplied with six stainless steel shells and a hard carry case, it is the ultimate choice for revolver enthusiasts and competitive shooters.
The Ares APR-005 Combat Version represents a significant evolution in airsoft revolver design. Developed alongside Clarence Lai (CL Project Design), this 4-inch model transforms the classic S&W 686 platform into a modern tactical powerhouse. Finished in matte black with striking bronze and silver accents, the APR-005 is built for those who demand the reliability of a competition-grade sidearm with the soul of a classic wheel gun.
What sets the Combat Version apart is the internal fine-tuning by CL Project Design. The revolver comes pre-fitted with a custom-made spring set, drastically reducing the pull weight of both single and double-action firing. This allows for rapid, accurate follow-up shots that outclass standard airsoft revolvers. Externally, the cylinder has been replaced with a unique bronze hexagon 715-style design, providing a modern aesthetic and smoother rotation.
Constructed from high-grade zinc alloy with stainless steel components, the APR-005 feels incredibly substantial in the hand. The kit includes six precision-engineered shells crafted from stainless steel and copper with rubber tips to ensure a perfect gas seal. The revolver is also fully compatible with Ares moon clips and speed loaders for efficient skirmish use.
Note: This model is powered by a standard 12g CO2 capsule located within the grip. For optimal performance, we recommend using high-quality 0.25g or 0.28g 6mm BBs.
