UK Legal & Site Notes
As a gearbox assembly (no barrel, no complete gun), this item is not subject to UK airsoft replica regulations. Always check your local site’s performance limits before installation—chrono your rifle to ensure compliance. Most UK sites permit 350–500 FPS (0.20g) for AEGs; spring choice determines your final output.
