Has anyone bought from SWIT airsoft?

Tough one. The refund won't cover the fees you paid, and it'll have to be delivered to them, so you don't want any hiccups at the Taiwan end either.

And I believe that if you've opened a "wrong item" dispute with PayPal then they'll also make the unreasonable demand that you send the "free gift" back, at your expense, before they'll refund you.

If that's the case, and you do go that route, then it would definitely be wrong - although no more unscrupulous than what SWIT did - to send them a box of grit and feathers, labelled "XM16E1".

I'd just bear in mind that you only get one chance with PayPal, so taking the $60 and cursing their ancestors might be the least bad option.

Put in the dispute through PayPal. Got a personal email response from SWIT today, offering a 60 dollar refund, or a return (which I'm definitely not going to do). 

Not sure if i should accept the partial refund or just ignore them and see what PayPal does. 

My response would be to tell them where they can stick that offer as it's taking the piss, I doubt that would even cover postage. I wouldn't accept anything less than a 100% refund.

This bunch of clowns are definitely going on my avoid list

Paypals intervention is issuing a full refund, post a safe return of the gun to SWIT. Something which I’m not going to do, so I’ll probably just accept SWITs 60 dollar partial refund, and cut my losses on this. 
 

Could be allot worse, and lesson learned never to use them again, or order from outside the UK again.

Explain on the PayPal dispute what they have offered. And say it's not enough. You will at least get back what they have offered if not more.

The other issue you have even if you did want to send it back. No courier will take it as Joe public customer out of the UK afaik, so you pretty much can't send it back.

Yeah, that's totally out of the question. I'm not even going to entertain that, after the massive pain it was to get to me.
