  1. Might be rare and discontinued, its still not worth £2000. Especially as there was another one sold on here a while ago for £750 less than that. The guns themselves were about £700 new in 2017, the mags were about £80 a pop, even calculating rate of inflation, you still come out to around £1300 new.
  2. At that price point, you really would be better off just getting a TM one at £10 more - https://www.defconairsoft.co.uk/product/tokyo-marui-sig-sauer-p226-railed-gbb-pistol/ WE P226 is about 90% of a clone of a TM, just some of the more irritating aspects like the blowback chamber are not compatible, so it basically renders it as a one and done pistol with very little in the way of available improvements. The hop wheel on the WE needs replacing with the Maple Leaf one immediately as it doesn't get enough purchase to lift bb's well. Also being WE it's using WE Spec barrel and hop rubber, so not actually TM GBB spec despite appearances, so if you replace the hop rubber, you've got to replace the inner barrel at the same time. WE spec hop rubber + WE spec barrel = OK WE spec hop rubber + TM spec barrel = NO TM spec hop rubber + WE spec barrel = NO TM spec hop rubber + TM spec barrel = OK It's not particularly gas efficient on green gas due the enormous amount of mass in the slide, WE guns in general are designed with Taiwan in mind, where red gas is the norm, even in 35+ degrees C.
  3. they are aware.
  4. Paintball mask, but price isn't unreasonable as the pro's are ~£150
  5. A friend tried to register on Friday and wasn't getting verification emails.
  6. As they're seemingly becoming unobtanium, bought another Large size Nuprol Hard Case for the Scar, as it won't fit in any of my existing ones because its marginally too long.
  7. I think the whole point of it was ML made so many VSR upgrade parts, that they just up and made a rifle with all the bits installed as standard, so I doubt there is much left to upgrade. Fluted barrel is indeed the deluxe model.
  8. If you can get one to actually be shipped, I have a friend who ordered at the preorder stage, and STILL hasn't received it. Communication from Toxicant is dogshit, and they just leave you in the dark endlessly. All the toxicant gubbins that guy has in the listing hits £1600, then you pay another 300+ in tax at the border, and you won't avoid it as it ends up in ParcelForce's grubby mitts. The sad reality is, he will sell it as people want them enough to put up the insane money.
  9. Unfortunate reality with that shitshow of a rifle, that's basically the going rate.
  10. Looks like genuine PLA issue one, but you can buy those on ebay for as little as £88 + shipping, as there are hundreds of thousands of them made.
  11. Somewhere between £130-140. Whilst they're not currently in stock, TacticalKit has them in stock on a fairly regular basis at £185. Kryptek ones are a bit marmite these days, so you will probably get low balled alot.
  12. WE Scar H V3 GBB arrived today, just spent the last 2.5 hours putting the PTS KDG MREX 4.25" handguard on it, as it requires careful modification to fit the WE.
  13. Not really Gun - £349.99 - https://www.bespokeairsoft.co.uk/emg-helios-noveske-n4-mws-gen-3-gas-blowback-m4-by-double-eagle-tan-g101 DE PMag x2 - £129.98 - https://www.bespokeairsoft.co.uk/emg-helios-noveske-n4-m4-mws-gen-3-gas-magazine-by-double-eagle-35-rounds-tan Guns Modify PMag - £68.99 - https://highpressureairsoft.co.uk/products/guns-modify-evo-35rds-gbb-airsoft-magazine-for-tokyo-marui-mws-rifles Total new - £548.96 ----- 70% of - £384.27 Postage with PF - £12 Total - £396.27 Looks pretty spot on to me, all DE Pmags leak OOTB because they ship them ungassed.
  14. But at that point once again, split it, because most people aren't going to give a shit and are just going to go "fuck me, that's expensive" Especially when there are currently 3 other TM MP7's for sale at half the price. You clearly aren't up to date on import tax thresholds - unless it peaks over £135, the chance of being called up on the tax from china et al as less than 1%. Aliexpress, as others have said pays the tax before shipping anyway.
  15. Having a warehouse in Czechia isn't going to make things any faster, given you've got to be an RFD to export it from there, so yet more unnecessary red tape. Literally going to be quicker to order from Asia by at least a factor of 2 or 3.
  16. PF taking the piss as per usual.

    KICBB shipped parcel on 27th, Arrived in the UK on 28th, Customs charges raised on 29th.

     

    PF has done nothing since, but won't let me pay the charges until it reaches the local depot, but customs won't release it until the charges are paid.

  17. Successfully featured in here twice in 2 days ?
  18. Split the XPI's and tech light, the rest of it is chinesium crapola.
  19. And because apparently I have no self-control on spending this month. (in my convoluted self-defence, it was about 45% off) Victoptics S6 1-6x24 LPVO in Burnt Bronze, with Co Witness mount of the same brand..
  20. This is clearly the "I spent almost as much as the rifle on overpriced repro bits added to the rifle, i'm going to be lazy and not list them separately"
  21. I think i've had this today, starting to think that pistol is cursed. Why i'm now not going to mark something as pending again for the foreseeable.
  22. My biggest issue is technically of my own making - i'm cack handed, so the stock folds the wrong way and all the controls are on the wrong side which is a major annoyance - had both the TM NGRS and WE GBB Scar L's ages ago, even then I got rid of it in favour of something else in both cases. As i'm planning to semi lock this and use it as a DMR, i'm probably going to get one of the Airsoft Artisan stock tube adapters and fit a Magpul PRS Lite to it, the quandary at the moment is whether the folding 1913 stock will work with the PRS Lite and still be able to fold, as that folds to the left side.
  23. WE Scar H is still stuck in customs land, that however doesn't prevent me from ordering bits for it.. PTS Kinetic SCAR MREX M-Lok MK 2 4.25" Rail in DE PTS Dead Air KeyMicro Flash Hider (which will go on the DE N4, and i'll put the full size on the scar so I can use the suppressor for both) Maple Leaf Crazy Jet 370mm Inner Barrel Still deciding which avenue to go on other things before I spend yet more monies on it (Stock related things, as have never been a huge fan of the ugg boot)
