Don't worry, you don't have to start listing off the terrible human rights violations commited by China. They've been doing terrible things for years, and will likely continue to do so unless there are some big changes to the government. I was trying to clarify why a thread that started off with a comment about Corona deviated to saying that it wasn't remotely about the spread of Corona. I was trying to get more of an understanding about the motivation behind it as it seems to be a repeating theme onlien. Whether it was a 'final nail in the coffin' situation, a wake up call that lead to people learning more about how the CCP behave, or just a case of 'It's imapcting me now so let's do something'.

In which case it would be about Corona.

If it's all about not wanting China to have a stranglehold on manufacturing and not agreeing with their ethics, which are both fair reasons to not want to buy from China, what does Covid-19 have to do with it?

I ordered a Tokyo Marui HK45 from them on the 24th Jan, and it arrived on the 28th, however the slide lock didn't work properly. I contacted them on the 29th and had a shipping labe emailed to me. It was sent back on the 29th Jan, and arrived on the 31st. They checked the gun over, said that they were having the same issue, and offered 3 solutions. 1) 'Service'* and lube the same gun up and send it back 2) 'Service'* and lube a new gun and send it back (with the caveat that the issue may be found on the new gun) 3) A full refund, for the gun and the used mags. So far, so good. I was pretty set on the HK45, so I went with option 2. It was the 4th Feb by the time we had emailed back and forth discussing the issues and options, and the replacement arrived on the 6th. Upon checking the pistol over, not only was the problem replicated, but they had sent the exact same pistol back to me. The packaging was also damaged inside, so either it was damaged in transport (the externals were ok), or it wasn't too carefully looked after during the return process. I emailed them and asked why this was the case, as from the conversations we had the agreement was to get a new pistol. They claimed that it was a fluke, and that they had just picked a new pistol off the shelf, 'serviced'* and lubed it, and sent it off. So that gives the impression that products that are known to have been used and found faulty are sat in the same area as brand new products, and that there is no differentiation between them. If this is to be believed, the brand new gun that you are ordering could in fact be one that has been RMA'd. The other alternative is that they had hoped I wouldn't have noticed it was the same one. After a brief discussion I asked that I get a full refund on the gun and the magazines, so I can't fault them at all on that front, although I do worry that somebody will end up purchasing the troublesome TM and some used mags. All in all, a mixed bag. Comms and the return process was good, but other things have left me reluctant to buy any guns from them in the future.

Thanks for your help with it. It really is. I prefer it over the Hk45 too, so it all worked out in the end.

New pistol after the HK45 debacle and the multiple recommendations to get one. Glad I went for it, it's such a good pistol. More mags and a holster on the way.

At an outrageous price which you'll vehemently defend so we get some more drama over at the Macks airsoft dreamers thread.
