Well that's it isn't it? They may be less new In theory, but *can* you find a new one?
I paid a bit over the odds for a 2nd hand m4 gas block off ebay a few months ago, they were just unobtainable anywhere else.

But is it worth not only paying more than new rrp, AND giving up on any warranty etc ?
?
I wouldn't risk it, especially as they've not been around long & any teething issues or weaknesses may not have become apparent ?

To be fair, he does seem like more of a collector / displayer than a player.
Maybe we could apply some of that Twatter/Google language policing to flag up the word "new" in any advert.

I paid £299 for mine from Patrol base with mags at about £30 a go
I deliberatly waited as I wasn't prepared to pay the £450 figures being asked by a couple of sites.

Y'all are thinking its something shady like out of his bedroom window in a built up area, it could just as easily be out of his mums corsa window when he went to meet the lads in Aldi car park.

Tbf, there are a few sites that still have some in for less.
£500 is just cheeky for 2nd hand.

Upside down is always a nice touch.
At the point where you're just saying "M44sale lol" why not pitch it as a mystery box? Folk seem to love those.

Couple of questionable prices here
First up, polymer or metal, even if the metal one, seems a bit pricey for used and with a fucked stock. Owning one of those stocks, it would take some considerable force to crack it like that, makes me wonder how the guns been treated
edit : just noticed the missing screw from the handguard, and the forward assist looks a bit off to me. And I didn't originally mention the red barrel
And for more than new, a used gun.. But its upgraded Mr (only a different hop unit and inner barrel from the write up)

We know that PatrolBase is pretty optimistic about flogging completely non-functional guns for more than sweetie money, but it's just occurred to me: given that they're actually marketing them as "wall hangers", why would the defence for selling them for airsoft skirmishing apply? ?
