I've done 7 large orders from Taiwan & HK in the past 6 months, if the value exceeds £135 just assume you'll get taxed, as i've been done with tax on every single order. There is no flying under the radar any more.

The issue with KYAirsoft is that their website will outright lie to you if it's in stock or not.  

If it is in stock, you're going to be fine, however if it isn't.  You're going to have issues with chasing them up for months.  

I ordered a Desert eagle slide from them in November 2023, which then eventually shipped in February 2024.  There have been horror stories on the airsoft subreddit where someone had to wait almost a year  for a part they ordered.  If you are going to order from them, i would strongly advise that you email them in advance, asking if it's in stock or not.

Also if you check their T&C's they state they won't do refunds/cancellations after 2 weeks of purchase.... so that's always fun.

Seeing as I've been waiting on a WE Desert Eagle nozzle off them for around 4 months at this point with plenty of umming-and-arring I'd suggest just going to somewhere else if they've got what you're after in stock. I've had good experiences with WGC and 18airsoft personally, but milage may vary, obviously.

Managed to acquire a 3d print file to make L7AWM shells for the WE Scar H...its now 5 hours into the print and some of the supports just collapsed. RIP 150g of plastic probably. ?

Nothing better than finding half your gas mags are leaking the day before a game ?

strykerles

every game day have at least 1 leaky mag

Anyone else had FPS issues with GM MWS mags? 282fps….88fps…282fps…87fps….and on and on. Sometimes it would be 3-4 full power shots then a weak dribble. G&P and TM mags were fine.

Mag #4 had a sticky / stiff release valve, a quick spray of GT85 and some silicone grease and moving much better. Took the play out the knocker valve and it is much more consistent.

For £70 mags they are pretty shoddy and a PITA to load.

You don't actually need to use their stupid open the shell loading system, you can just load them like any other GBB mag.

SSPKali
Yeah, I lock the follower down, slide mag back together and fill with speed loader…still more difficult than needed due to the feedlips

It would be amazing if some of the new people would use the SEARCH function before posting the same question as the last 20 threads on a particular gun.

Connor, this isn't a gameshow, points don't make prizes, stop making work for us, read the rules ffs?

When attempting to build your M14, ensure you have actually inserted the piston and not wait until you have it fully rebuilt to realise....D'oh!!

Feel your pain.

Once forgot to bolt the piston head to the piston and was headscratching why the fps was fine for 5 shots then completely dived off a cliff.

Don't forget the tappet plate spring either. I may or may not have done that once.

(Or twice)

I wouldnt mind as much but it was a V7 gearbox and got it all back in, only for it to make high speed zzziinnngggy noises. I laughed....

Evri decided it'd be a great idea to just leave my parcel hanging out of my letterbox. On a busy street. Just down from a rough part of town.

Thanks, Evri. Within 30 mins of you "delivering" it, somebody has walked by and nicked it.

For it to be sticking out of your letter box isn't even proof of delivery to you. At best, it's proof that they had left it carelessly in plain sight of the public.

Can I purchase parts and gear (as in clothing, pouches, red dots, e.g.) may be obvious jus tryna make sure as tackle said don't entertain

Sure, no problem. And you're right that there's no offence committed by you selling RIFs, it's purely a forum rule.  I appreciate your honesty in disclosing your age, that's  - somewhat paradoxically - a sign of maturity.

Actually,  I don't think he disclosed his actual age, just the fact he's under 18.

Out of interest,  for context, how old are you @Orangetwister13 ?

Ordered 3 of the GM Pmags for the MWS - two of the three are pissing gas out the outlet valves and the casing almost as fast as I can fill them!

The one that does work is nice and consistent, shame the other two are lemons! See what the retailer says…

3... 2... "Lack of maintenance, mate."

For the time they were in transit? ?

"Well, the months or years they were drying out at the back of our stock room. But, to be fair, mate, you should have bought them sooner, that's on you."

PF taking the piss as per usual.

KICBB shipped parcel on 27th, Arrived in the UK on 28th, Customs charges raised on 29th.

PF has done nothing since, but won't let me pay the charges until it reaches the local depot, but customs won't release it until the charges are paid.

Having trouble with UPS fucking around and refusing to give any tracking or delivery info on a 18airsoft order that I've already provided the missing info + paid the fees on. Anybody got any ideas on how to get them to budge that doesn't including sitting on the phone talking to people who have no idea what's going on for hours or am I going to have to waste a painful few to get it released? Storage charges start on the 6th so I'm not too confident on waiting for them to reply to the two emails I've sent so far.

If its a consolation, Royal Mail also sat on an 18Airsoft order of mine for almost a month after i had paid the customs fees. It eventually arrived, but I spent hours on the phone - and with RM it was taking an average of an hour in the queue before some clueless fool even answered it.

Seeing lots of near new prices in the gbbrs classifieds section at the moment… interesting ?
