UK Firearm Law - Update

  UKPSF Statement on Recent Firearms Legislation Changes The UKPSF works hard to keep up to date with changes to UK legislation that may affect the paintball industry and our members. As we have stated previously, however, we are not lawyers, and firearms legislation can contain complex legal nuances and interpretations. To ensure that the guidance we provide remains accurate, the UKPSF has once again sought advice from the firearms barrister we use. We have received an increasing number of requests from police forces and local authorities for information relating to incidents involving so-called “Novel Systems”, a category that can include paintball markers.

UKPSF Team Spotlight - S.A.D.


Staffordshire & District Paintball Club, a.k.a SaD.

Five friends sat drinking discussing what their new Paintball teams should be called, some of the names were outrageous, some were wild, and some simply plain weird, as more beer was consumed the more outrageous the suggestions, and the more raucous the laughter, when a passing barmaid asked what they were all laughing at, "well you lot are all sad!"

From that simple night out who would have thought that a club would emerge. S.A.D competed across the UK from 1993 to 2004 at the peak the club supported four teams.

SaD UK, SaD Too, SaD Young Guns and SaD Fallen Angels.

The club formed the core of the workforce and marshalling staff at the Midlands Masters which went on to become the UK Masters. The club was also behind the Shoot the Rainbow charity events, the most memorable being the one held at Marchweil Cricket Club Wrexham.

SaD as the club are known, reformed in March 2013 featuring several of the original players from the clubs past.

Now in 2021 the club supports over 80 active players, and has an established framework which supports player progression.

SaD welcomes all players, and has teams competing across multiple disciplines, from Sup-Air to Woodland Competitions, as well as supporting a healthy walk on community.

SaD also has an established Academy programme that has been the breeding ground for many young players.
