Because there are no "shady practices". I don't run business that way. The "patch" aka this kit, which I ran for about 6 years with no issues either in person or online until HRC, weird. I only put that together because I found the K98K. You can complain about anyone in the Frontlines Airsoft Discord too who also do historical kits, who are a great bunch of guys. Yeah I made some comments about that too, look at the rules about the server and how militant and childlike they are. Never had any issues anywhere before, or since, and certainly not related to the way in which I conduct business ? HRC has its own reputation, and its not just coming from me. I'll leave it at that, as this has far detracted from the original point of this thread.

I got banned from HRC for "shady practices" did I? Care to quote what they are, or are you going to still waffle on about something else you don't understand? You're more than welcome to showcase what your shipping prices are after your proact order for a rifle ? They were literally the shipping options presented. You can call me a numpty, but the fact is if you believe margins are anywhere close to 100% for airsoft guns in the UK (try removing a zero, you're much closer), then every single UK airsoft retailer would like a word.

I mean here's some EMS quotes from HK stores for a PPSH, coming in at 4.2kg.

Have you ever thought nobody is getting products "wholesale" from proact? And if it was that simple, why are no other stores in the UK hundreds of pounds cheaper for the same thing because of who they're getting it from? Why would any store price themselves out of the market and encourage people to shop from overseas stores, when they can just make a profit by not doing that? After shipping costs (which you've missed) and taxes, maybe you'll pay around £600 from Proact. Shipping is often £100+ on airsoft guns. If I could buy it for 30% less than you can directly....why wouldn't I, or literally any UK business just sell it for more or less the same price as it would work out for you after fees, and still have that margin?

You have absolutely no idea if you think UK stores are making 100% markup on literally any airsoft gun.

It's confirmed

Mid-late October on the website, but in all likelihood it should be sooner than that. Rather have a pleasant surprise than a disappointment!

After asking Viva, they are 120rd Mid caps.

Today's the day.... Bren pre-orders are now live! Magazine pricing and availability soon to follow... https://www.raresoft.co.uk/product-page/viva-arms-bren

The one on the link looks like a matte finish, reminiscent of 3D printing (I don't know if that one is, I know some prop versions have been in the past.

I can guarantee you that the product available on my website, and the one on the link sent earlier are not the same. You can see for one that it doesn't have the correct enamel finish.

It will be going on my VFC AK as soon as it arrives, and then I'll make a product review to showcase, but it should be no problem

Proud to be bringing the first readily available OKP-7 replica to the UK market! Currently have a Picatinny version in production, just waiting on some information back from the factory next week and hopefully I can launch a dovetail rail version at the same price point, or maybe ever so slightly more depending on cost. Discount available for initial customers willing to pre-order, before going to full price on general launch (ETA early August) https://www.raresoft.co.uk/product-page/raresoft-optics-okp-7-replica-picatinny-version
