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:
Show proof of skirmishing: Gather evidence like photos and videos from airsoft games you've participated in. These should clearly show you actively involved in skirmishing, demonstrating your intent to use the gun for the sport.
Become a registered skirmisher: The easiest way to prove your defence is by joining a recognized airsoft association and getting a membership card. The most common one in the UK is UKARA. This registration confirms you're a legitimate airsoft player.
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.
Bring absolute intimidation, hard-hitting blowback recoil, and legendary handgun styling to your loadout with the Double Bell Desert Eagle Gas Blowback Pistol (779S)! Recreating one of the most iconic large-caliber handguns in modern firearms history, this full-size gas blowback replica translates massive scale and visual authority into an impressive airsoft platform.
Heavy-Duty Construction & Massive Blowback Recoil Engineered to capture the true weight and imposing feel of the real-steel platform, the Double Bell 779S features a solid metal upper slide and barrel assembly paired with a high-impact composite lower frame. Operating on standard green gas, the pistol's massive metal slide kicks rearward with a heavy, tactile recoil impulse on every shot. The sheer mass of the cycling slide delivers one of the most satisfying shooting experiences available in an airsoft sidearm, giving you an unmistakable feedback impulse through every trigger pull.
Integrated Railing & Authentic Frame Controls Designed for maximum tactical adaptability, the top barrel assembly incorporates an integrated Picatinny optic rail section, allowing operators to easily mount micro red dots or magnified hand-cannon sights. A lower frame rail provides additional mounting real estate for tactical flashlights or aiming lasers. The pistol features authentic ambidextrous thumb safety levers mounted directly on the slide, a functional slide catch mechanism that locks open on the last BB, and a large frame-mounted magazine release for rapid reloads.
Precision Adjustable Hop-Up & Field Performance Beneath its massive exterior lies a full-size brass inner barrel paired with an adjustable hop-up chamber accessible by stripping the slide assembly. This allows shooters to dial in precise backspin on heavier BBs to achieve flat, consistent flight paths over long engagement distances. The included full-metal drop-out gas magazine houses a large internal gas reservoir engineered to efficiently move the heavy slide while feeding BBs smoothly through fast semi-automatic firing sequences.
Whether you are completing an iconic action-hero loadout or looking to overpower opponents on the CQB field with sheer sidearm presence, the Double Bell Desert Eagle Gas Blowback Pistol (779S) delivers unbeatable power, style, and kick.

Two tone
We can two tone any weapon we sell at Bespoke Airsoft. The purpose for two toning is if you do not hold a valid defense under the Violent Crimes Reduction Act (VCRA, 2006) which is to prevent the misuse of Replica Weapons, which applies in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
The gun will be sprayed 51% in a bright/primary color (we do only blue, green and red currently). The process of two toning currently runs at 2 working days depending on Drying Time, which is effected by Ambient Temperature and Weather. and currently no express delivery is available for this even if you select it at checkout.
FAQs
1. What is a BB gun used for? BB guns are mostly used for practice shooting and training. The stronger ones (i.e. Air Rifles) can also control pests or hunt small animals.
2. Do you need a Licence in the UK for a BB gun? No, you don't need a licence for a BB gun in the UK, but there are rules. The BB Gun needs to be in two colours; one has to be a primary. All our guns are on the website as per default.
3. Is a BB gun a good weapon? BB guns, despite sometimes being seen as toys, can be dangerous. They fire pellets at high speeds and can cause serious harm, or even be deadly in some situations.
4. Can you shoot BB guns in public in the UK without a Firearm license? BB guns in the UK navigate a legal grey area. While certain models, notably low-power 'soft air' types, typically evade classification as section 1 firearms, more potent versions may require a valid firearms certificate to avoid legal repercussions.
5. Can you shoot a BB gun in your garden? You can use a BB gun in your garden under UK law, but you have to ensure the pellets don't go into your neighbour's yard, plot or land. If they do and you don't have permission, it's against the law.
6. Which UK law am I breaking if the pellets go into my neighbour's law without permission? If your BB gun pellets go into your neighbour's yard without permission, you're breaking UK laws. Specifically, the 1968 Firearms Act and possibly the 2003 Anti-Social Behaviour Act, because you may be causing your neighbours trouble or worry.
