Response edited as I hadn’t realised this guy had asked the same question in another thread.

I ordered a Holy Warrior Sig Sauer Tango6T replica last week from Aliexpress and it arrived this morning. Chucked it on my TM M4 MWS URG-I build and I think it really looks the part. I’m really happy with the build quality and the look of it. The glass is very clear although I’m sure it’s nowhere near the all round quality of the real steel scope. I’m not sure how well it’ll stand up to the punishment of recoil from a real 5.56mm rifle, but it should be good enough to withstand a GBBR. That said, this is really only for display with the odd bit of garden plinking.

Sounds great. I’m very interested in the VFC KAC M110K1 and the Colt 733 when they are fully released, so any chance of them being sold by a U.K. seller is a good thing.

Is this the full list of manufacturers that you will be able to get or is there a chance it could expand in future as I’m interested in a few VFC GBB’s and ArchWick’s L119A2. There’s no one in the U.K. looking likely to stock them at the moment.

You lucky bugger. I wish I was in a position to be confident that I wouldn’t have any issues getting one imported, but being on a reenactment society defence I can see customs just chucking it in the skip and it would honestly break my heart. Not to mention my back balance. I really thought some of the U.K. stores would have jumped on these though and got some in stock. I’m sure they wouldn’t hang around long, even at the high price.

So I’ve heard. I’ve not seen one up close, but they look amazing from what I’ve seen online. I had a TM MWS done up as an L119A2, but it just didn’t seem right without the monolithic upper. I’d probably sell most of my collection for an Archwick.

Thanks for the suggestions guys. It looks like Deadly Customs do a universal Surefire holster which is compatible with the X300V, so I think they may be worth a try. Doesn’t look like it has the thumb drive style retention, but beggars can’t be choosers.

Yeah, guess I should have said. It’s the GHK, so looking at 1:1 size wise.

Can anyone point me in the right direction to get a decent retention holster to fit a Glock 17 with a Surefire X300V? I’m not wanting to pay silly money, but open to suggestions. I’ve got a couple of Fobus Lighthouse holsters, but I don’t really like the locking/retention system. Something with a thumb drive would be good. There are a bunch around, but the issue I’m having is that the X300V is a longer torch than the usual X300 or X300U so it doesn’t seem to fit most styles.

Archwick are doing some really nice stuff and I like the look of their L119A2 a lot. The kits for the Marui MWS aren’t much cheaper than the full GHK build so I’d expect the LMT to be around the same price. Also, they don’t seem to have a very large manufacturing base, which I’m sure keeps up the high quality, but means there’s not many around. I’ve not seen any available in the U.K. even though I’m sure quite a few people would be willing to buy them. Me included. It seems unlikely U.K. retailers will stock the LMT kits if their not able or willing to stock the L119A2’s unfortunately. That kind of leaves us with buying from an Asian store and it’s a lot of cash to throw away if customs decide their not willing to let it in, or if something happens to it in transit.

Cheers bud ??

Personally when I advertise stuff I usually make it clear that the price includes PayPal and postage fees. In this case quango2k hasn’t mentioned PayPal, just delivery. So it does leave room for confusion. As it is advised that all transactions go via PayPal I can see why you would expect PayPal fees to be included in his price. But once it is clear that the PayPal fees are extra, if you didn’t want to pay the extra, personally I would have left it at that. Thanks, but no thanks. I feel that posting a bad review was probably an unnecessary step to far. I wouldn’t necessarily say either of you were being an asshole, just a situation that could probably have been dealt with better.

Nice. I want a different stock on my URG-I. I think I’m going to go with a tan B5 Sopmod, but the Magpul with the riser looks nice. That may be an option. Is that a genuine Insight torch or a replica?

Well my dispute is in with Aliexpress so I’ll see what happens with that, but in the meantime I’m pretty much done with my Clay Spenser build. One or two little touches left to do, needs a better charging handle, but other than that, even with the damage, I’m very happy with it. I think it looks great with my Jason Hayes build.

Yeah, I guess it can’t harm to ask. Nothing to lose I suppose.

To be honest, my heart did sink when I saw the dent and if it had been a U.K. or European store it would be going back. But it’s just way to much hassle to try sending it back to an Aliexpress store in China. So I’ve made my peace with it ? I’ve got a 416 with the Geissele rail for the Jason Hayes look, but I’ve been after a Clay 416 as well. I’ll get pictures posted when it arrives and it’s kitted up. In the mean time I’ve stuck it on my TM M4 URG-I.

It took nearly a month, but it got here and I have to say I’m very impressed. So a big thank you to rocketdogbert for the heads up. It looks absolutely perfect, apart from the damage to the front and a couple of small scratches, which I’m guessing must have happened during packaging as it came securely package in a decent case. The markings are really nice and it has some decent weight to it. Plus it comes with everything in the picture, Geissele style mount, covers, kill flash and throw lever. The glass is nice and clear with decent crosshairs and the zoom in and out is smooth enough. Obviously it’s not going to be as smooth as the real thing, but it’s a hell of a lot cheaper. All in all I’m very happy. Just waiting for my 416 to arrive so I can get on with my SEAL Team Clay Spenser build.

Can anyone recommend a courier who will transport a gas pistol to Republic of Ireland? Royal Mail/Parcel Force won’t due to the gas magazines. Thanks.

I’ve ordered that one off Aliexpress based on the reviews. I’m looking forward to seeing what it’s like when it turns up.

That may be an option and all the reviews look good. I’ll have to weigh up the delivery costs of the different sellers to see what’s best. I’ve seen this advertised of a few of the Chinese airsoft stores so I’ll see which is best value. But the reviews are definitely promising.

I’ve seen that Ares are doing a replica of the Vortex Razor LPVO and want to know if anyone has one and what they’re like. Even if they’re half decent it may be worth taking a punt as I’ve been looking at getting one for a while, but £1500 for a real one is a bit steep to chuck on an airsoft gun.

I’ve got the VFC M110 and it is gorgeous. I absolutely love it. But, and it’s a big but, I’ve not used it in any games and I never will. It was bought as a collectors piece and so I can’t tell you how well it will perform in game and how well the internals will last. The externals though, as expected from VFC are awesome and it feels fantastic. Nice heavy recoil, very loud and solid as a rock. It’s unfortunate that VFC can’t build the internals like the build the external.

Nothing airsoft related for Christmas, but I got these two excellent full metal GOATGUNS miniatures from my wife. I’ve got to say I’m very impressed with them and I think I’m going to get some more.
