Calling all air gun enthusiasts

[GixxerMan]

I really cannot understand why some people does try to gouge people. Imagine persons telling you, pay them $500 and they will organize your permit. A permit that's free of charge once you apply on your own.

Blasted criminal behavior.

sins... you know what is worse that that? It have ppl that telling you when you go to purchase an airgun in their store you looking like you cannot afford to buy anything in the store.

I had that told to me recently...

[88sins]

the blatant unwarranted disrespect eh.
lemme guess, yuh went by a man in marabella & diaz the dotishness fly out he mouth nah?

Well ollour shooting PNM music truck jivers, so dem hadda watch ollour suspeck............

[*KRONIK*]

I find that shooting event kinda suspicious as regards this petition.
I have never seen a media reported incident of someone being shot with an airgun, suddenly we want to improve our equipment and a political man gets shot...hmmmmm....suspicious.

[dougla_boy]

And that's after paying retail price, import duty, vat, opt and shipping.
Just a lil perspective

so question? if I wanna get one, i could find out and bring it down? I know a fella with a license for it.

[88sins]

Once you or he have an import permit, & the one you import is .177 & smoothbore, by all means go right ahead.

very suspicious ent. But they still can't slow it down.


And just to keep things in a sane, logical, rational perspective.

1-the person that did do so should be arrested & charged & convicted of the offense once found guilty.
2-they cannot use a single isolated incident as a viable & rational argument to deny persons rifled barreled .177 airguns. Over the years more than a few F.U.L. holders have used their licensed firearms to threaten unarmed persons both while sober & intoxicated, used them in robberies, and even used them in killings & murder/suicide cases. Have they stopped issuing F.U.L.'s? No, so they cant use this as any sort of justification either.
3-A gov't has an obligation to be just, reasonable, logical & open all its actions and inactions. And it would be a grave injustice to penalize an entire population, based solely on the negative actions of 1 or 2 persons for whatever reason they might have taken said action. Whether the perpetrator did so to make a political point, to stymie a movement, or to protect some greedy, callous dealers pocket.

Onward ever, backward never

d .177 pellet gun ched now reach 177 supporters
Nice going fellas, lets not stay at that number long tho

[ruff neck chicken]

i have an import and keep permit and started the ball rolling with finding out the process of importing it. im just a bit busy these days but i shall try to keep this updated as much as i can. i contacted one of my skybox companies and this was their response to far.

""If you Buy the rifle directly from the merchant using your credit card it will be held at customs where you will have to go to clear it directly that is if the rifle isn't seized by customs. This purchase can not be done, by us, on your behalf as you would have to present customs with your permit.""

at the moment i am trying to find out what charges may arise. eg. shipping, tax, duties.

the blatant unwarranted disrespect eh.
lemme guess, yuh went by a man in marabella & diaz the dotishness fly out he mouth nah?

and you know what's the sad thing...one of his good friends recommended him

[streetbeastINC.]

Might be a dumb question but can you order nerf guns for kids or are those a problem with customs

[88sins]

Thats a good question, but I think you are safe with nerf guns since they are considered toys for small children. Not sure how ttps would translate the law on it tho. I will call a friend in customs & find out.

[hong kong phooey]

i cleared customs piarco with it in the suitcase and it was not an issue. my bag went through the scanner .
I just ordered 2 water guns and soon i will find out if i will have problems with seabox

[streetbeastINC.]

i want to order some today for kids toys gifts......

[Redman]

My mom had a package of religious medallions sent through TTPost from Texas.
For children's rosaries.

3 months later and a dozen phone calls we had to go to Piarco since a customs officer labeled it as a suspicious package.

Now there was a invoice on the outside of the box,yet we had to carry a printed copy of the same invoice (email would not be accepted )and she had to be present when opening.

She had to sit and wait an hr cuz we arrived at 11:40 and all were at lunch.

The customs officer could not explain why the package was deemed suspicious by the other customs officer.

I would hazard guess and say SOE for nerf guns.

[streetbeastINC.]

yep scrapping that idea.......such idiots ...

By the way guys, are there any restrictions to archery equipment?

I had the exact same question a few years ago, and so I asked a customs officer in piarco about this. this is his exact response, word for word.
"it have no restrictions on importing it, but if you bring it in & customs sees it yuh doh necessarily have to get it"
meaning, if you do bring it in & they see it, they will detain it & send it to preventative unit & then tell you some BS story about needing permission from the CoP.

you would get that about 2 weeks before yard fowl grow teeth
but if you do happen to get it, just a headsup, do not transport it strung, or with the heads attached to the arrows.

Thanks. I really did not want to join an archery club just to bring in what I wanted but I guess I will, and let them bring it in to avoid that hassle.

[88sins]

what kinda bow you had in mind though, compound bow or recurve?
Because I could tell you this much, a recurve bow is a much better option, especially for beginners

Exercises by officers of the Northern Division on Friday resulted in the seizure of two air rifles, along with a quantity of ammunition.
The exercises were spearheaded by ACP Hackshaw, with assistance from Senior Supt Jacob and Supt Sankar, along with officers of the Northern Division Task Force, including Sgts Pitt and Joseph, and Cpl Pamphille, among several others.
In one case, the officers made their way to the home of a 46-year-old man, along Fort George Street, St James, where the officers executed a search warrant.
The lawmen recovered at the address one FX .22 calibre air rifle, which was outfitted with a Hawk Scope Mounted, as well as one FX .30 air rifle.
The officers also recovered one .22 calibre magazine, one .30 calibre magazine, one .380 silencer and a quantity of .22 calibre ammunition. As a result of the finds, the man was detained.
PC Simon is continuing enquiries in this matter.
Then in the Arouca district, eight persons were arrested during police exercises in the area for a variety of offences, including possession of narcotics, possession of apparatus, and enquiries into robbery-related offences in the area.
The men were aged between 19 and 32 years old.

[sMASH]

'...Possession of apparatus...' they arrested some lab workers and mathematics students?!!! Lolz

[88sins]

2 things eh streetbeast
1-Don't believe everything you read in the papers, more than a few erroneous point in that article.
2-It have more to that case than some persons would believe. It is believed there is some heavy dealer involvement in this.
