£400(inc delivery) 5 months old with three extra mags and a sling...

Or £403 (inc delivery) brand new with warranty and three extra mags (but no sling)...

Now for my money, that would have to be a fricking awesome sling for me to forgo a warranty...

I did the same math I think £300 is a fair price but a joke  currently.

I didn't see the BZtac new pricing, the websites I checked for current new prices were around the £430-£460 mark (Weekendwarrior airsoft, Bullseye, Bespoke etc etc). I bought the gun for £440 new from J-Tac Custom.

Add the extra mags and sling, that was coming out around £500 new for the whole lot based on what I paid and the prices I found, so my original £400 asking (always negotiable) seemed about right.

Have amended asking price down a bit in light of the Bz pricing.

 

Genuinely wasn't trying to rip anyone off that liked the gun, I have also dropped my asking on the other places the gun is listed.

Cheers

I really don't care if it's the best airsoft pistol ever that shoots lasers out to 100m I can't imagine anyone paying more than double the price of a REAL Glock on a second hand airsoft gun

Agreed that's insane. That might be more money than I have ever spent on airsoft (but not for long 😋)

Think that’s gotta be a typo, sure it was up for less than that before.

 

Edit: they’re $220 brand new

Woah...I'm popular, haha.

 

If someone had messaged me to point it out/ask, you could have saved yourselves some time speculating but yes that's a typo.

 

Also this is no longer for sale.

Ok that makes a lot more sense. My apologies but it was worth a laugh

I'm just glad I managed to avoid public flogging!

 

Personally I take this thread as just a bit of banter. People are of course allowed to ask whatever they like for their goods. Besides this is limited edition, you'll all be dead but in a hundred years time I'm taking it on the Antiques Roadshow and then will make a fortune! We all know limited edition airsoft guns only rocket in value......

[EvilMonkee]

Personally, I am still in favour of the flogging, love a good flogging me.....I'll get me coat.....

Or less than £5 new from eBay which have about as much chance as being genuine Magpul.

Can you link to £5 copies on eBay. Wouldn't mind a set but can't find any for that price when searching magpul. The ones I do find do look of less quality and don't have magpul(real or not) markings. 

 

The ad also doesn't claim they are definitely real, he states he doesn't know.

But apart from the 'Bid' item, none of those have markings?

[Steveocee]

Why have a marking if it isn't real anyway?

Looking at eBay some of the Magpul ones don't even have markings other than a "bit of a grippy bit".

Thats an odd thing to say? The whole point of the clone market is to buy 'stuff' that looks legit when it isnt for a lot less money.

Not particularly. My point was if the chap is selling fake sights for £17+fees+postage, why bother? Just buy fake ones for a £5r.

If they are genuine then of course my initial point is null and void.

The item incs postage? No idea about fees. I always include it in the cost.

Anyway, real Magpul sights with the Magpul markings are around £40. So, if you dont care about markings and just want back up sights, then yes, buy the ones you have linked...but, like ive said, if you care about the 'look' then these are still fine (unless you can find cheaper sights with markings)

This isn't a valid scammer post I dont believe, its an opinion. 

Personally, I don't want to pay RS prices at all, however, I will pay extra for clone stuff with RS markings because I like the look.

Didn't imply it was a scam. Just a bit overpriced. 

If you prefer to have genuine fakes then of course that's your opinion also.

[ThePunisher]

All things considered, if the fakes don't appear to have markings, it seems as though they are Magpul then, in which case the pricing including postage is about right?

Your’s are PTS, the Airsoft company that Magpul originally licenced to make airsoft copies of their parts.

 

Decent  quality, worth the money, but not real steel Magpul sights

PTS were around in the early '10s, their products got cloned pretty heavily as I understand it so they either lost Magpul's license or let it lapse - Their Magpul branded stuff isn't made anymore so I'd say it's worth the cash tbh
