Legal Information

iWholesales Ltd is a trade-only supplier ofAirsoft recreational equipment. Airsoft is a popular, non-lethal sporting hobby in the UK, legally and safely categorized alongside common activities like paintball and gel blasting.

1. A Safe & Regulated Hobby
  • Recreational Nature: Airsoft is an organized sporting activity focused on teamwork and target play, much like paintball.
  • Safety Tested: These items are engineered to discharge lightweight 6mm plastic pellets that are non-lethal and designed specifically for hobbyist use.
  • Legal Status: Under the Firearms Act 1968 (Section 57A), airsoft products are not considered firearms because they operate at very low energy levels.
2. Muzzle Energy & Safety Limits

To ensure these items remain safe for recreational play, they strictly follow the kinetic energy limits set by UK law:

  • Fully Automatic Models: These are capped at 1.3 Joules.
  • Single Shot Models: These are capped at 2.5 Joules.
  • Toy-Like Characteristics: Because they fire only plastic or part-plastic spherical missiles (max 8mm diameter) at these low energies, they are legally recognized as safe recreational tools.
3. Restricted Professional Ecosystem (B2B)

While individual buyers at retail shops must provide proof of "Defense" (such as a skirmisher membership) under the VCRA Act, iWholesales operates at a higher professional tier:

  • Vetted Trade Only: This platform is a Closed Ecosystem. We do not sell to the general public.
  • Mandatory Business Verification: Every account is manually reviewed and approved by our compliance team. We only supply verified retailers who are already legal professionals in the hobby industry.
  • Pre-Vetted Supply Chain: By the time an item is listed here, it has already passed through our strict safety and legal vetting process, ensuring it is 100% legal to trade.
4. Industry Accreditations

Our commitment to safety is supported by our active memberships in professional hobbyist and trade associations:

  • GTA (Gun Trade Association): Membership No. IWH/3379.
  • BASC (British Association for Shooting & Conservation): Membership No. 160096741.
  • Registered Firearms Dealer (RFD): We are a Registered Firearms Dealer authorized by the Thames Valley Police (Certificate No: 43/00000008887).

Product Overview

The Colt M715 1980 20.0 Lightning Series Gas Blowback Rifle (EMG/Cyma - MWS - COLT.1021-LS) is a full-length, premium tactical gas blowback rifle fully licensed by Colt's Manufacturing, replicating the iconic full-size 20-inch barrel service rifle configuration of the 1980s. Built with a CNC-machined metal receiver set featuring a classic fixed carry handle and a long-form handguard, this model offers realistic weapon weight and front-end weight distribution, making it an excellent platform for historic military simulations and long-range accuracy drills.

Performance-wise, the rifle operates on the advanced Tokyo Marui MWS gas blowback architecture, ensuring high thermal gas efficiency and crisp, hard-kicking bolt action. The long 20-inch inner barrel dramatically stabilizes downrange accuracy and projectile velocity consistency. Outfitted with traditional full-length triangular-profile handguards, a fixed polymer full stock with an integrated buffer assembly, and a high-flow metal magazine, this 6mm rifle provides wholesale buyers and retail stores with an ultra-reliable, collectors-grade vintage platform.
