Adding to the good Doctor, the loadout looks good for winter but you'll die of heat when it warms up. The XR5 is a good shooter. (based on an M4)

Looks cool but I'd guess quite a few sites wouldn't allow em

I'm still hopeful that importing from EU will stabilise and be simplified in future. Brexit on top of Covid has disrupted everything really badly. Since November I'm still waiting for parts from KYAirsoft who say they're still waiting for a shipment from WE. This is also affecting UK retailers who obviously have very low stock at the moment. Things will get better... We have EVERYTHING to look forward to

Yeah but we haven't had to deal with them separately before. It makes the final price harder to work out right now. And of course the crap customs clearing times that are being reported.

First thing is always to see if you can find it in UK and what the price is. Then you can see if its cheaper from EU or East. With the Brexit shit its now a bit less beneficial to look outside UK. Its generally a bit cheaper from EU but keep in mind the hassle in case you have to return it. Taiwangun is good for returns so if they have what you want then its worth it. Could also be worth looking at the JG M-4A

Spring guide probably out of alignment. You'll have to jiggle the bit under the barrel.

Postcode lottery ? You Lucky Lucky Ba....

Definitely a dick seller and if this is the case then its strong grounds for him to be banned from classifieds.

Got to be a Spitfire ?

Hahaha no ?

I like Connery but I must be one of the few who likes Moore more ? I worked on the VFX for two Bonds, Goldeneye and Tomorrow Never Dies.

"The Gun Maker Carrying Out Extreme Sensitivity" ?

You can try to do everything yourself and worst case scenario if you can't get it back together or make it work then send the box of bits to a gun tech ?? Would certainly be a good learning experience and may not be as difficult as you think. From my experience doing simple mods it just takes patience.

I think TG do not accept UK orders at this time but Gunfire do. NOTE: Gunfire checkout says 'Including VAT' but they told me that it does NOT so you'll have to add VAT plus Duty plus extra post to that total

Be careful with the stated VAT on the purchase page. I was going to make a purchase on Gunfire and basket stated "Including VAT" Luckily I asked them and they said VAT was NOT included so I guess they didn't update their website. So I would have been charged the extra 20% on entry to UK...

What's up? I must have missed something. I blocked Sboardley because I don't want to get dragged down to some Facebook level argument. Since all the relevant posts were deleted by Jedi there is no record of the conversation and toxic abuse by Sboardley. He will have to deal with free speech or leave. This certainly has livened up the thread a bit. Enjoy everyone ?

In fact the only person who has been toxic is Sboardley. You're quite new here so you will learn... ...or go back to Facebook ?

I just pointed out that 2 sites were selling for less that his quoted retail

Overpriced as usual https://www.socomtactical.net/jg-sa58-fal-electric-blowback-aeg/

Consignments valued at more than £135 Normal VAT and customs rules will apply on importation of the goods into Great Britain from outside the UK I guess this is why Gunfire will only take orders above £135

Been doing a bit of digging and this is what I've come up with so far (I may be wrong of course) All this relates to Orders Totalling above £135 (Since Gunfire in particular require this for an order) You can look up the Trade Tariff Commodity Code relating to Airsoft here: https://www.gov.uk/trade-tariff The code I found most relevant was 9304 (Other arms (for example, spring, air or gas guns and pistols, truncheons))... This category brings up this info Consignments valued at more than £135 Normal VAT and customs rules will apply on importation of the goods into Great Britain from outside the UK From what I read HERE, the VAT can be applied at source by the seller in the originating country if they're registered to do so (which most European suppliers already are) Or they may charge local TAX (which is higher than UK) (I don't think this is common for Airsoft though) If not included in the sale then it will be applied by Customs upon entering the UK and passed on to the post service who will ask you for payment before delivering (plus a handling fee because they have to pay Customs) So the VAT situation doesn't seem to have altered as most retailers add VAT to UK orders anyway. Going by the info above, the new fee is the Duty at 2% of the order value. (Not sure if that includes delivery costs) I've emailed Gunfire for their calculation of fees but not holding my breath for a clear answer. ....its a bloody mess...

Still confusing ? Gunfire checkout says "VAT included" even above £135. I guess they haven't updated the website.
