    They will lose in the long run, It's when you see someone playing at a site and go
    "Huh, That's not too far from me, I'll try it out"
    They are basically forfeiting a form of advertisement.

    no, there is no way with off the shelf parts you can attach a suppressor directly to a delta ring or upper receiver.
     
    you could make a very very short barrel and attach it that way, but the answer to your question remains 'no'.

    Right, I just got an email back from Rebekah Brooks. She said: "we need more to go on if we're finally going to shut airsoft down." I prepared this for her:
     
    Airsofters Try to 'Snuff' Out 'Risk to Children' - by Constance Curtaintwitcher
     
    Following on from our damning story about the supermarket that sold firearms to schoolchildren for pocket money, we approached the 'airsoft' community, who approve of such activities, to gauge their opinion. Airsoft is a form of paintball, but unlike paintball it's not 'just a laugh.' In this dark world of make-believe grown men lure younger players to hidden 'sites' across the country where they're told to act out various fantasy 'scenarios' in the hope of one day earning the right to buy ever more deadly and realistic looking guns. One lead spokesman for this shockingly large and growing trade spoke to us, but would only be identified by his evil sounding moniker 'Snuff.' We told him about how the industry had been exposed by a concerned insider with a message of hope for change and better regulation and he nonchalantly replied that the message should be "ignored." During a frankly shocking confessional interview he went on to discuss "buggering" and how he had personally been involved with "tennis ball hand grenades." Will these be the latest tools to drag our innocent children from their safe and snug beds and into a world of terrorist training? (See our editorial. The answer is; yes, yes they will. That and immigrants.)

    Mack reacted to jcheeseright in Manufacturer's out of the box performance   
    For your normal AEG I'm still putting r-hop down as snake oil along with the fallacy that a longer tighter bore barrel is 'more accurate'. I've shot a huge array of guns and I've never had one shoot reliably further than 60 yards (that's a measured 60 yards on a range, not an airsofter's "my gun shoots coke cans at 60 yards") effective range. R-hop, j-hop, q-hop bla bla bla... none of them shooting 350fps or less have gone really any further reliably than that distance.
     
    For a sniper rifle yeah it may be a marginal gain but for your average AEG? no.
     
    That and sorbo pads, radiused gearboxes... really now? I know I roll this out pretty regularly but my old Marui M4 had been chugging away reliably for MORE THAN A DECADE with zero maintenance before I sold it, that includes a couple of years sat in a box under a bed with all the seals 'drying out' (clearly they didn't) and it shot just as well on the day I chrono'd it for sale as it did the day I bought it back in 2001. This is the same brand that uses 'crappy plastic bushings' and pot metal gears along with a terribly low tech non-radiused gearbox shell and not a bearing in sight! Yes, there are performance gains to be had on this design, but even so they're marginal... bearing spring guides etc yeah, they might extend the life of the gun by another decade?
     
    Reliability is entirely down to good materials and quality control, without those things all the best bearings and sorbothane are useless from the factory. Performance is also entirely down to good materials, design and quality control... an r-hop by all accounts takes a vast amount of fettling to be effective and it'll never work from the factory.
     
    Airsofters have this massive fixation with 'upgrades' and chasing the next big performance gain but if you've got a half decent gun to begin with you're chasing smoke, if you've bought a JG M4 with 5 previous owners you don't need upgrades, you need your head checking.

    Any 7.62 pouch will fit it.

    There will be no set pouch for just a Scar H as the size is simmilar to most others of the same calibre.

    Agreed. I've never paid tax on any accessories bought from HK. I'm not saying that you won't be taxed, but it's highly unlikely for small parcels.
     
    If you buy from the US however, nearly everything seems to get taxed!

    With a package that size you very rarely get taxed. I have over 30 orders from them and have never paid it once.
