Thanks, do they offer 2 tone do you know?? And do you know if it will get through customs alright??

Don't think so, if in doubt, ask them to write your UKARA number on the box.

Yeah, don't offer two-tone as they're in Hong Kong. Remember you might have to pay customs tax and duty though.

i dont have ukara so is there a company i can send it too to get it painted?

 

[Qlimax]

Don't think customs will release it if you don't have UKARA mate.

UKARA isn't a requirement for customs. I've received dozens of AEG's since 2007 without UKARA, you do need a valid defense though.

Link to the gun? I'm sure someone will be able to find it in the UK/EU

http://shop.ehobbyasia.com/agm-m4-cqb-gas-blow-back-rifle.html#.VhgT4PlVhBd - this is the link to the gun and what do you mean a valid defense do you mean a reason?

 

[Hef Legend]

3 things.....

1) That gun is beyond shit, if you're going for a GBBR avoid AGM. Guessing you're on a low budget, so go for a WE.

2) Valid Defence - UKARA, Re-enactor, Valid/active site membership etc

3) The Price - Gun $180, shipping $84, $264/ £172. Then add on the tax/duty another £40ish, plus the lovely handling fee that Parcelforce/UPS add £13ish. You've spent £225ish. You can pick a new WE up for £260 in the EU.

i suppose im best going for the we option then!!

I'm usually not the one to say this until recently, but please use the search function in the future - both eHobby and Tiger111HK (the other site you asked about) have threads already in this subforum (one is even pinned). You risk wasting people's time and getting a lazy answer that you could have had immediately if you looked up the thread. Thankfully in this case people have been nice

That said, you have dodged a bullet here through these replies - AGM GBBRs are utter dog sh*t. WE is alright, but make sure you budget in good quality BBs, decent gas and extra magazines. These can cost more than you think - GBBRs are rarely an option that work well on a tight budget. You more frequently get what you pay for.
