Well, now the show is over and its time to say good-bye to The Grange (aka, “The Country Club”) for now - and I think it we can safely say that the first ever UK Airsoft Arms Fair was a total success.

We had a fantastic day today, and I’m sure that everyone else who attended did as well.  We saw a pretty impressive range of airsoft possibilities on display today too – everything from the somewhat bizarre (steam-punk, mutant, Nazi, zombies!) to the absolutely brilliant (Ares PPsh-41) and a wide range in-between…

A particular something else in the “brilliant” category was the Gunmunki workshop tucked away in one of the outbuildings next to the car park.  It was like a true Aladdin’s Cave of combat clothing and custom guns.  First, there were the sets of overdyed Swiss combats that were used in the film adaptation of Richard III – this film re-imagined Shakespeare’s Richard III set in a Fascist version of 1930’s Britain, and the overdyed “Alpenflage” uniforms were used by Richard III’s troops.

Then there was the MP5SD fitted with a telescoping M4 Crane stock.  These types of stocks have started to turn up on more and more different types of guns – and they haven’t always been positively received – but this is one execution that definitely gets the “thumbs up” from us!  Check it out at Gunmunki’s online shop.

Finally, special word of thanks to the boys from GASS (for looking after the Airsoft Soldier booth while I was away blogging).  Nice one fellas!    And a mention-in-dispatches for Stirling Airsoft as well – for keeping us all entertained with their “hoorah” promo-videos, micro-UAV, and airsoft Mini-Gun (let’s see it in action next time chaps!).

Having had a such a great day today, we’re now looking forward to the next Airsoft Arms Fair.  We’ll be there – will you?
