You just put your UKARA on the box, customs don't care. They'll just chib you 20% of the stated value, same as always.

HPA are sometimes handy. Firesupport has a lot of very random parts in stock that can also be handy. Other than that the markup on GBB, especially mags, is insane.

Man, it's such a niche rifle that there's no adjustable valve options. It doesn't even have an inbuilt flute valve.

Buying GBBRs from a shop in the UK is where you're going wrong tbh.

It's the Ares gas sniper right? No adjustable valve or the like to control the power output?

People say that to me a lot

Man I'm way too Scottish to spend that on an end cap

Am I just way out of touch with real steel prices or is £50 for the end cap of a torch the pisstake I think it is? https://airsoft-forums.uk/classifieds/item/66331-genuine-surefire-z68-tailcap-2-available-£50-each-£80-for-both/ £165 for a Spitfire also kinda on the high side ngl

This feels like when someone is selling a belt kit and they absolutely refuse to split it. My brother in Christ it has three grenade pouches and Scorpion Evo specific kydex pouches. The number of customers looking for that exact loadout is basically zero. Just sell me the belt with one of the grenade pouches and the dump, please.

Ol' Reliable right here

Got help from a friend across the pond, managed to pick up some furniture for my AK. Needs a replacement handguard then a good bit of wear to get the look I'm wanting.

Kinda railroads the options into only a Rhodesian fit, on top of just looking bad. Like, they only used that paint because they couldn't buy real paint. Absolute pain in the arse to strip it off without damaging the underlying finish. Not to mention Rhodesia being a bit shit to do an impression of in the first place.

Honestly the weird thing on that note is seeing kids posting like, "roast me bros I can take it bros just roast me mate," with like a catastrophically mid loadout and I start to wonder if it's a weird masochistic thing they do these days. I'm so glad I grew up in the era of internet where you didn't post face or name, it would've been a disaster.

Last time one of these came up it went for £600 with like 8 mags. Cos the shit paint job.

Make friends with an American online and get them to buy it on your behalf, repackage, and ship it to you. Just make sure you're not ordering any pressure bearing components such as barrels, gas blocks, bolt carriers, etc. (Why would you anyway?) Customs doesn't give a shit about furniture, get your pal to slap your UKARA on it just in case.

Man. People ruin this gun constantly with this paint job.

How much is an MWS new?

That's just Ali Express gear. Either that newbie has been thoroughly lied to by whoever sold them that stuff, or they're a real bullshitter lmao.

Man, UsedAirsoft seems particularly shit

"Selling my total destroying A&K MK46 all metal and ways like the real thing this thing is no joke 70m 'real meters' with 32" This is so wanky lmfao

Yeah AEGs have the issue of always needing somewhere to stuff the battery.

Yeah just CNC a handguard that's a great idea. 90% material wastage lmfao. There's a reason machine shops will laugh you out the door if you bring CAD files intended for 3DP to a CNC house. Additive and subtractive manufacturing are completely different, and on top of that most machine shops will just not bother with a single run batch of possible firearms parts. Not worth the money or hassle.

That's not the same as selling a parts kit though is it? I really don't get what your point is here.

Yeah it's a 3DP kit, people want something that's machined typically. I mean they're going bananas for that Saiga Groza kit rn. I tell ya, someone will buy it.

Is it a bullshit price? Yeah. Is someone probably going to buy it? Also yes. It's a niche collector's item that there's not really a modern replacement for.
