I've been pondering exactly how to do this for a while. The problem is getting hold of the airsoft receiver halves without paying £400+ for the complete airsoft toy and then throwing away all the expensive internals.
Re the law, no, it'll never be section 5 unless you do something stupid like take a hacksaw to the barrel. Which you won't need to do anyway, as the real L85 barrel is 518mm long.

(1) Airsoft toys are generally either (a) expensive or (b) crap, even if just used to donate their furniture
(2) It wouldn't exactly help the general effort if a filthy journo (Gaz exempted) found out about it; "Toy gun converted with household tools to fire automatic bullets of same calibre as army rifles".
You can buy a purpose made firearms kit to dress a 10/22 up as a P90S. Someone on this forum has one and it looks the mutts nuts. I think its in the "Show us your rimfire's thread"
