Agreed, even importing it direct from Proact is only going to cost around £500 new after taxes.

Bottom photo is pinched from AirsoftEire https://airsofteire.co.uk/products/salvo-precision-mcx-rattler-300-gbbr-case-tan?shpxid=cba203b1-4a92-4137-8b80-82c2c41e9eea

Basically the only option currently available for MWS is the Toxicant one - https://toxicantairsoft.com/products/mws-mcx-multifunctional-adjustment-trigger-box However, you're not going to get it quick, as they're getting progressively worse at shipping at the moment.

People selling who've neglected to read the Paypal T&C's, where it explicitly says the seller is responsible for the fees, and trying to pass that on to the Buyer. Seriously, it takes half a second to calculate it and factor it in to your costs.

The 'What have you just bought' Thread
GiantKiwi replied to Cameron364's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts
6 WE SCAR H V3 Mags, as i'm intending on running it as DMR, so the HPA avenue is just an unnecessary irritation. By the time they've landed in the UK, at worst case its going to be £45 a mag. -
Either an adapter for a normal speedloader or find a 3d printed Odin adapter.
-
Worse than that, they will usually only ship within Germany.
-
AFAIK, this isn't likely going to be a problem importing it, but you may find the retailer unwilling to ship it, as most US firearms retailers like hiding behind ITAR even for things explicitly not on ITAR as a reason to not ship things outside of the US, instead of doing the hassle of sending it. Edit: Very clearly in their T&C's, they won't ship outside of the US, so you can dream basically.

£490ish new

They're not great on the WE 226, bit too wide. WE 226 is about an extra 30% wider than the desert warrior
-
An option that isn't obscenely expensive, greatly welcomed.

If its the nuprol universal holster, you can adjust the retention with the screws in the sides. If you plan on running a pistol light on it in the future, you can get either the blackhawk omnivore (quite spendy) or the aliexpress clone (not so spendy) which are vastly better than anything on the nuprol vein.

Any TM spec AEG M4 magazine will work.

He's done step files, so it can be machined.
-
There is literally a conversion kit that someone in the US has done last year, with the files costing $35 to buy. One modern replacement.
-
Honestly, you're a tad biased given its your business model. Maybe worth staying out of this one, hmm? The point where I listen to a retailer on what is a fair price, is the day I stop playing airsoft.
-
Might be rare and discontinued, its still not worth £2000. Especially as there was another one sold on here a while ago for £750 less than that. The guns themselves were about £700 new in 2017, the mags were about £80 a pop, even calculating rate of inflation, you still come out to around £1300 new.
-
At that price point, you really would be better off just getting a TM one at £10 more - https://www.defconairsoft.co.uk/product/tokyo-marui-sig-sauer-p226-railed-gbb-pistol/ WE P226 is about 90% of a clone of a TM, just some of the more irritating aspects like the blowback chamber are not compatible, so it basically renders it as a one and done pistol with very little in the way of available improvements. The hop wheel on the WE needs replacing with the Maple Leaf one immediately as it doesn't get enough purchase to lift bb's well. Also being WE it's using WE Spec barrel and hop rubber, so not actually TM GBB spec despite appearances, so if you replace the hop rubber, you've got to replace the inner barrel at the same time. WE spec hop rubber + WE spec barrel = OK WE spec hop rubber + TM spec barrel = NO TM spec hop rubber + WE spec barrel = NO TM spec hop rubber + TM spec barrel = OK It's not particularly gas efficient on green gas due the enormous amount of mass in the slide, WE guns in general are designed with Taiwan in mind, where red gas is the norm, even in 35+ degrees C.

they are aware.

Paintball mask, but price isn't unreasonable as the pro's are ~£150

A friend tried to register on Friday and wasn't getting verification emails.

The 'What have you just bought' Thread
GiantKiwi replied to Cameron364's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts
As they're seemingly becoming unobtanium, bought another Large size Nuprol Hard Case for the Scar, as it won't fit in any of my existing ones because its marginally too long. -
I think the whole point of it was ML made so many VSR upgrade parts, that they just up and made a rifle with all the bits installed as standard, so I doubt there is much left to upgrade. Fluted barrel is indeed the deluxe model.
-
If you can get one to actually be shipped, I have a friend who ordered at the preorder stage, and STILL hasn't received it. Communication from Toxicant is dogshit, and they just leave you in the dark endlessly. All the toxicant gubbins that guy has in the listing hits £1600, then you pay another 300+ in tax at the border, and you won't avoid it as it ends up in ParcelForce's grubby mitts. The sad reality is, he will sell it as people want them enough to put up the insane money.

Unfortunate reality with that shitshow of a rifle, that's basically the going rate.
