tome Posted May 15, 2008 Report Share Posted May 15, 2008 Is Mike LaRue the Mark LaRue knockoff? ROFL!!!!! these seem to be much better repros than the element ones. At least then have the cutouts on the rails to allow you to fit rail covers On my element on i had to dremel out the indents! Link to post Share on other sites

Hispeed1 Posted May 15, 2008 Report Share Posted May 15, 2008 J/K Glenn. Anyways-I wish I knew this was coming. I picked up a crappy Element 7" rail, and 3 of the 4 rails were out of spec. I couldn't get rail covers to slide onto them. A lot of people had this problem. Link to post Share on other sites
Hispeed1 Posted May 15, 2008 Report Share Posted May 15, 2008 Im getting the 9'' for my new M4 I am building. Along with a KA free floating barrel. Stick a 10.5" barrel on that-it would look SICK! Link to post Share on other sites
Sale Posted May 15, 2008 Report Share Posted May 15, 2008 Obviously if someone doesn't want their product copied, they have a right to pull a fit and pursue any legal action. But I'm not sure if it's such a smart move. I talked to the reps of Gemtech in IWA, and they had a very positive attitude towards airsoft products, and they have turned it into their benefit by allowing MadBull to produce replicas of their stuff under a licence. Aside from the direct benefit from licencing fees, a good copy for airsoft use makes the product more known without robbing the sales of realsteel stuff for realsteel folks. Some of us are into both airsoft and realsteel, and airsofts are becoming more common in training use all the time. Getting your name on a good product is a walking advertisement for you, and you get money for letting people put it on their product. On top of that you let the licence-holder protect its rights, so it's one less head-ache for you. Surely a win-win-win situation in my book. The handful of geardoes in the world (who buy a real LaRue for their airsoft guns) don't bring that much business to the company, compared to the situation where you'd let King Arms affix the trades under licence, and benefit from the hundreds of units sold after that. -Sale Link to post Share on other sites
CSI304 Posted May 15, 2008 Report Share Posted May 15, 2008 The 9inch looks really sexy, Mark's gonna be ######. Link to post Share on other sites

BoE.Solidius Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 Why do people care about trades? I don't think it makes your Airsoft any better. They have RIS point trades I am sure. I am spraying mine Tan to go along with my Tan M4 just need a nice coat finisher for the Metal. Link to post Share on other sites

I am spraying mine Tan to go along with my Tan M4 just need a nice coat finisher for the Metal. Because trademarks make it look authentic and cool. nobody said it made you airsoft any better... its just taste, and personally trademarks really top off a gun. especially on the hk416...
