Chris North Posted June 1, 2007 Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 I only know about the HFC, although there are a few other makes out there. The HFC is probably the only one you're going to find easily, though. They're pretty cool, no hop up although fairly high powered fo its size. They hold 7 rounds using a stick magazine. Mine came with a mock silencer. All plastic construction though it's quite weighty. I bought mine from a wholesaler for about $20USD. Edit: I didn't notice you're from the UK. Apparently these things are extremely hard to find there. I think some one said they imported one and it ended up costing 3 or 4 times its original price. Link to post Share on other sites
Sledge Posted June 1, 2007 Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 Nice little guns. You'll probably have to talk nicely to someone in America to get one. Link to post Share on other sites
otherrandomhero Posted June 1, 2007 Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 They are the absolute best discount stealth gun you can get. I picked one up with a few extra mags and an aftermarket silencer from airsplat for around $50. Strangely enough, my version had a hopup unit, .2s worked well. I cut down the silencer a bit so it matched the gun size better and packed it with foam. I stuck a STAR 6.05 barrel in there I got in bad condition for $5 from a local who didn't have use for it anymore because of its condition. Some cleaning up and attatching, and now I have a wicked-*albatross* backup sniper-ish pistol. I can reliably hit someone 80-90 feet away, and I stitched a custom holster onto the side of my boot I can store it in. I sometimes find myself using it for stealth kills when I can't afford to make any noise. Seriously, you can't hear it at all farther than 10 feet away. Link to post Share on other sites
The Saint Posted June 2, 2007 Report Share Posted June 2, 2007 I stuck a STAR 6.05 barrel in there I got in bad condition for $5 from a local who didn't have use for it anymore because of its condition. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> So it accepts standard GBB barrels? I assume it came with a manual? Link to post Share on other sites
otherrandomhero Posted June 2, 2007 Report Share Posted June 2, 2007 No, I don't think it was supposed to, but I made it fit anyways. It didn't fit the hopup unit correctly, so I just used the opposite end of the barrel without the weird hopup part with the hole at the end and glued it in. Link to post Share on other sites
Rob15 Posted June 2, 2007 Report Share Posted June 2, 2007 KWC/3psa/cybergay made the old gas .25, they're no longer in production though since about 2 years ago... I managed to import 2 of the HFC ones from the US, athough it worked out really expensive after UPS taxed me and the insane shipping charge Link to post Share on other sites
The Saint Posted June 2, 2007 Report Share Posted June 2, 2007 http://buyairsoft.ca/catalog/product_info....products_id=226 Can anyone which company made that? That site usually says if it a HFC, since it doesn't, I'm kinda lost. Link to post Share on other sites
Rob15 Posted June 2, 2007 Report Share Posted June 2, 2007 If that is the correct picture then its the old KWC/3psa version. Link to post Share on other sites
AliceHKfan Posted June 2, 2007 Report Share Posted June 2, 2007 I don't think it is :S it doesn't have all the colt markings on it, it just has the "Rampant Colt" Link to post Share on other sites
Rob15 Posted June 2, 2007 Report Share Posted June 2, 2007 Yeah, but the HFC doesn't even have that on, it has a spiders web instead..... Link to post Share on other sites
terrorist killer Posted June 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2007 where can i buy one Link to post Share on other sites
Rob15 Posted June 3, 2007 Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 Speedytoys.com Thats where i got my 2, which ended up costing about £98 for the 2 after postage and tax....... Link to post Share on other sites
terrorist killer Posted June 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 I found them at buyairsoft(yeah it was the one quoted)and it's about £38 each with import tax so sorry if your annoyed cos you could've get them £22 cheaper if you bought 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Rob15 Posted June 3, 2007 Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 Not really fussed about a few quid, more concerned about how useless they are to me in skirmishes (i never get even close to being able to use it). Still, £38 + some paypal currency conversion charges (probably two or three quid) then handling fee if it gets taxed you're looking at £53 odd. Link to post Share on other sites
marmalade Posted June 3, 2007 Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 Yeah i use to have one of these little gun it was awesome until it disapeared. I have wanted to get another one but it seems impossible as 3PSA dont make them any more. Its possible still to get one by HFC but it really looks rubbish compared. It cost me £20 i found the site where i got it. http://www.bbguns.co.uk/849_1_17608.html Link to post Share on other sites
Rob15 Posted June 3, 2007 Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 Yeah, the 3psa ones looked really good. I found the slide from my old 1/1 spring colt .25 a while ago, turns out the gas .25s around these days are a good 1" shorter than they should be... Link to post Share on other sites
