selling guns and gun replicas

[dairyman]

you have a point but we do have our right to impose our own rules.

however, due to your strong love to your hobby, ill try to air this concern to other moderators who are very much older and... well, really older than me

we'll bring it under terms wherein both parties (Istorya and, buyers and sellers combine) agree on such.

cheers



PS

there are moderators who play such games so hold your horses.

Yeah, this is good news. Hopefully it will be approved by the higher echelon.

This is simple really and doesn't really need discussion.

Threads that have been "tolerated" as you say simply aren't caught. Robots don't moderate forums and things will slip through.

Airsoft equipment was disallowed because we were under the impression that they were banned by law. If that is the case, the rule stands, you can't plead your case because you have no ground to stand on. I believe there was discussion about this about Airsoft guns used to commit crimes and/or threats in the past where people would comply because they thought they were real guns.

If the law doesn't exist (and we will find out soon), then I personally believe that there is no reason Airsoft equipment shouldn't be allowed. End of story. Everyone run along and play with your play guns.

The rule stands - No guns.

For future reference on the reasons why it is not allowed, here are some quotes from the moderator forums ...

So is there a law ... a real in the books law?

there is...

Letter Of Instruction 1264 signed in 1982 by Pres. Ferdinand E. Marcos

however, PNP circular No. 11 signed in Jan. 9, 2008 signed by Gen. Razon has leglized airsoft but sellers should be licensed as stated in:

VI. MANUFACTURE AND SALE

All natural and juridical persons who intend to manufacture or sell airsoft rifle/ pistol shall apply for a license to manufacture or license to deal airsoft rifles/ pistols under existing rules and regulations of the Philippine National Police thru Firearms and Explosives Division of the Civil Security Group as provided for under the provision of Revised Memorandum Circular Number 99-009.

however, i wonder if this PNP circular means that LOI 1264 has been repealed.

Based on the LOI, establishments or individuals who wants to sell airsoft are required to secure a permit from the PNP. If that's the case then anyone selling airsoft in the forums must have that permit. I doubt we can keep track of that efficiently.
