The cast of X Men showing why you should choose your words carefully when talking about airsoft

The nearest airsoft shop to me is only 5 miles away but I won't shop there as the owner is a complete bellend

Wolf armouries is a great example, not only did they have a shit eating attitude, I remember a young member on another forum contacting me for advice, long time ago pre vcra, explaining how he'd put a pistol in for repair & when he went to pick it up he was told "you've already collected it", his response was "no I haven't", & Wolf refused to accept they had given it to the wrong person, or alternatively one of the arsehole staff had lifted it  ?

I just had this pop up on Google. Good news for anyone in the Huntingdon/Cambridgeshire area

Surely they should be "industrial", "medieval", "furure" and "aztec"? Especially if the head marshal is a bald thespian with eccentric taste in clothing

As I've posted before it never ceases to amaze me how so many airsofters are happy to be bent over and shafted by shops with terrible customer service

Hey,
 
 I’m Matt who owns Lancashire Armament Co, I just want to be absolutely clear that we never charge for parts sourced and only bill for CAD time on parts we design in house.
 
 I’m not suggesting your accusing me of such, but just for clarity of anyone reading this thread in the future.
 
We charge for machine time and materials only as described in the invoice, for any paid or personal use only models our customers “instruct” us to manufacture the part on their behalf and we never share parts between customers who do not own licenses to them.
 
We have a proven track record of enforcing users purchasing personal usage rights to paid models and will always do so.
 
As contributors to open-source ourselves we respect the terms and limitations of the licenses imposed on us.

Midweek games interest me because my shift pattern means I don't get that many weekends off and when I do half the time I've just finished a night shift

I very much agree. Once bitten twice shy. I would rather drive 20 miles in a thunderstorm than buy from a shop that has pissed me off or ripped me off even if they were two minutes away.

My local asda has been reducing it's range of beer and cider so I've been getting some really good deals as they clear excess stock (eg bottles of Trooper for 68p) so I'm hoping they're going to do the same with spirits. Not sure my liver will be too pleased though

That's what I was thinking.  I see they've positioned themselves carefully RE manufacturing defect, but seeing as the pew doesn't have a mark on it, they will be hard pushed to explain how it can be otherwise - which is also part of the CRA.
 
Up to 6 months they have to prove it wasn't a factory defect.
 
Thankfully over 20 years of running a business and having to deal with wankers in all walks of life, I have had to verse myself in several bits of law...  I still keep the court documents where I publicly called a company out for being Snake Oil Salesmen - told them to F Off (literally) in reply to their Cease and Desist letter - then got the case thrown out of court without even getting a hearing.
 
I can write a good passive aggressive missive when I need to. 😎  SWMBO wasn't so impressed at the time though.
 
 
 
Genuinely I do hope they get themselves sorted because as I said in the opening post - the place is looking promising in terms of shop, range, tech facilities.  

Good to hear. I get the feeling they were trying to fob you off with a load of bullshit in the hope you don't know consumer law. It makes me wonder how many other people have fallen for their lies and just paid up

If that's the case. Oh TM Gas SPAS 12, Walther P99, PPK and an NRGS G3 and Gaili pronto 

😁
 
 
Well that had the desired effect:
 
 
 
Don't know if they reading this thread; but I find it somewhat ironic that if you google "airsoft and consumer rights uk" their website comes top of the listings.
 
 

Only when cleaning handguns as I strip them down for cleaning anyway. Everything else except the M4 stays in one piece as it's the only AEG I've got where I don't have to spend ages taking it apart and putting it back together.
 
Even more so than ethyl alcohol found in booze*
 
 
 
 
*Please don't drink isopropyl alcohol, there's a high chance it'll make you take a forever nap

Yeah, Isopropyl and Isopropanol are the same chemically just different names.
https://www.chemicals.co.uk/blog/isopropanol-same-as-isopropyl-alcohol#:~:text=Isopropanol is also called isopropyl,between isopropanol and isopropyl alcohol.
 
They'll both get you equally high 🤣
 
 

Am I getting confused with the Rum thread?
