Does that mean you can import weapons grade nuclear material? I can just imagine one of those FBI guys that are watching this site being startled out of his chair shouting, "Holy shit, we got one!"
I
don't have a license to Import Airsoft. But Airsoft importers have the license, they have to. It makes Airsoft as a hobby in Canada quite expensive. I found this out when some people I know were trying to get the license.
Considering the situation, it's probably easier to go through the paperwork and background checks to import Firearms or be a Gunsmith than it is to import Airsoft. Clouding the issue more is that some Airsoft and Paintball guns are considered "Firearms" under Canadian Law.

Well, only with GM intervention. Pink Mohawk and Ice Cold can't exist (fairly) in the same game world.
An Ice Cold game can totally go Pink Mohawk if you take them to a Feral City like Lagos or the CZ. The difference can be as simple as a change of venue.

Which I just got on a Multi-Movie DVD for cheap. I'll have to watch it again.
Still trying to figure out why they have loaded weapons in a museum. Functional is even a touch of a stretch... I know my local Armory Museums use deactivated weapons for display models. (Of course, a few minutes with a gunsmith and they'll be ready to rock and roll as soon as we can find enough .303 British Service to load into the Vickers!).

So, the only "flaw" you can see with the movie is because the weapons in the museum are functional AND loaded? REALLY?

Never said it was the only one. Just the one the irks me the most. Personally, I'd also like to know what programming Jeffrey Dahmer was genetically-chosen for.

It's a good "Turn your brain off and enjoy" movie. But the future scenes really, really,
