Hello,

There are few posts on the forum which have their images redacted.

See a screenshot below for example.

Why is is not accessible from th UK?
Thanks.

Its the hosting provider responding to our laws.
Images were on there before our gov made the sites responsible for age verification, and them withdrawing access, to save having to comply, I believe.

So if the original pictures are reposted today, the content should be accessible?

Not if they’re hosted on the same platform as previously

It shouldn't be that hard.
I surely can figure it out.

The air rifle is a Reximex Pretensis.
It has a Picatinny and dove tail rail on the top.

The box of the mount states Weaver.

So it's probably the problem.

I will be ordering some Picatinny rings 30mm tall for 30mm diameter.

Hopefully this will fix the issue.

I strongly suspect that the unavailable image is hosted on Imgur, which is blocked here in the UK because they don't comply with the recent data protection laws.
I see this a lot on the Linux Mint forum and it's annoying, but no more than can be expected on an international forum.

100% imgur .. they took the easy route to compliance with the UK Gov't requirement for age verification and decided to simply ban all uk access .. it ruins game walkthroughs

If you turn on a VPN (I use Proton Free), you can be outside the U.K. and Imgur will show you the content. Turn if off when you’re done.

As above . I use a VPN to view them . They can be handy for looking back at airgun strip down posts that were posted before Imgur blocked us in the UK. .

Some in the US who post on here are still using Imgur unaware we in the UK cant see it with out a VPN.
