Will do, however this parcel got sent back. Wrong gun (AK105) and it clearly got mishandled in shipping as box was caved in on arrival, to the point that the lower receiver had been warped enough to completely seize the bolt. Oh and wrong mags as well.
Arrived just after 10am yesterday, fired off an email to Samoon shortly after, and courier was arranged by them, and parcel picked up at 5pm. At least they can do something right on this order. >.>
Also going to be claiming my customs tax and handling fees off them, or requesting further discount, because that is frankly taking the piss to mess up an order that badly.

Sorry, but having worked for online retailers in the past, you get an understanding of what is legal and what is not within the UK. There are quite a few things on the site which need rectifying to be legal.
In a visible location on the site:
You need a Physical Address listed for correspondence. As products mention excluding tax prices, you must display your VAT number.
Terms and Conditions:
Faulty Goods - Whilst the up to 28 days is correct, the next statement is not. Between 28 days and 6 MONTHS (not the 2 months you mention). It is also you, the retailer, that has to provide proof that the fault was not down to general wear and tear, not the consumer. The consumer still has the right at this point to a refund via refusal of goods, minus reasonable deductions for recision, and you again have to provide proof of what is defined as reasonable deductions. -

"I no-scoped him" - 16 year old using a JBBG speshul, shouted at the top of his voice.
The 2 marshals and myself were just stood there face in palms, 10 metres behind him.
And no, he didn't hit anything.

GiantKiwi reacted to Lozart in Advice on price/specs of this gun.
OK. The OP specifically was asking about a G&G. The post by Tad said "why not buy it new" implying that he was referring to the gun that was referenced by not only the OP but also other posters. I was pointing out that the gun Tad recommended wasn't what the OP was asking about.
There was no mocking involved merely pointing out a fact.

GiantKiwi reacted to BrightCandle in How good is my gun build?
Ultimate Gearbox w/full Lonex internals - Gearbox should be good but Lonex don't make the best internals. Best of breed would probably be siegetek gears, ultimate cylinder/piston head/cylinder head/piston + mosfet micro switch trigger.
G&G Standard metal hopup - They are fine but the prowin is a much better hop up unit. Would also be nice if the barrel/hop was R hopped.
Unknown barrel make... - Most barrels are actually pretty rubbish in terms of straightness and finish. PDI or prometheus are decent, everything else is what you get until you get those. So unlikely its best of available.
GFC M4 Reciever body - No idea, its metal its got the right markings but no idea the quality of the metal. Not even sure what the best would be as it tends to be what you get with the base gun as they are all a little different.
TM motor - Best of breed here would be either something like a torque motor again from say ASG their U35000, or a high speed motor and associated gearbox.
So basically none of the so called upgrades is really top of the market competitive. With all the best bits it would be more than £400 however (it would be £90 on the barrel and another £80 on the motor and £100's on the gearbox).

Well after a nearly £4000 tax refund for this past year (still chasing down last year after discovering wrong tax codes, 560L, seriously!?) I may have got an itchy spending finger.
Iron Airsoft HK416 Conversion Kit for G&P WOC
5KU Aluminium Nozzle with NPAS
5KU CNC Hop Chamber (aeg inner barrel version)
G&P WOC Steel Trigger Group (toyed with getting the burst kit, but still not sure, so sticking with standard for now)
G&P WOC 150% Spring and Pin Set
Orga Magnus 6.23mm 363mm for AEG
A+ REAPS Bucking
Vipertech Direct Impact Carbine Recoil Buffer and Hard Recoil Buffer Spring
Geissele 14.5" SMR HK in DDC (Second Hand, found someone in the UK selling one o.O) - CKinnerley's video from the US is the only reason I have wanted one of these.
Magpul USA Milspec CTR Stock in DE
Magpul USA RVG in DE
Magpul USA MIAD in DE
Vortex SPARC II with Killflash
Invisiblesight PEQ15 (Tan)
Also a few bottles of Murder Oil purely out of interest, still think its not going to make a difference to anything.
God I love the end of the tax year.
