Macks airsoft dreamers of the week thread

I'd say it's a combination of the metal = good plastic = bad fallacy and that many are released in that race gun style with all the bells and whistles already attached, giving the appearance of a well tuned high end gun 

 
EDIT: seller woke up from his dream as the price was dropped to something more realistic

Am I missing something ?, I get it that the real working bit of kit is pricey (& discontinued), but still available secondhand working for around £200+, but a non working "prop" with a ballpark figure of £150, even with a bit of bartering I can't see it coming down to what most people would consider more realistic for some dress up accessorising.

Bargain!

I'll have it at that price. It don't matter if it's fake cause I've got no one to talk to anyway. ?

Yep - If you're going to play dressup for £150, surely you would just buy a real one for 225.

It's marketed as a speedy boi gun so I assume that's the target demographic.

I’ve seen a few HK based videos, seems to be popular over there, blue suppressors etc, I’m not sure but I think the armed forces over there use blue accessories on their training weapons? ??‍♂️

I've seen some (iirc) 75 ranger guys using blue cans, with blue mags and their BCG is also blue, it's to show as training. UK Police use blue (Two tone blue) Glocks to show training too, can see a fair few pics of blue glocks in holsters for ARV/CTFSO etc.

 
UK police training weapons, circa 2009.  I've seen (but can't now find) them using blue G36s now.
