chas Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 Hi! I decided to open this thread so we can make the biggest list possible of airsoft guns/accesories/gear stores available. I have come across a few new shops lately and Im sure most people would like to have a few more options than the generally known WGC, RW, UNC, Gunners, Rsov, EBB and a few more. Rules are simple: 1. Shop not on the list yet, post the link. 1.1 If there is something especially remarcable about a store, like they carry stuff that is hard to find, you can order stuff from other stores for a low or non extra cost, there are tricks to get discounts, etc, post a short comment after the link. 2. If you have never ordered from that shop, write “unknow reliability” after the link. 3. If you know that a shop has good service or simply doesnt give any major (or is it mayor?) problems, simply post: “Frogairsoft.com is OK”. 4. If you know that a shop is not realiable, takes a month to ship out orders or are blatant scammers, post your comment in bald or red, so people can be warned. 5. Please do not discuss/comment unnecessarily in this thread so as to keep it neat and easy to look through. Im going to start with the obvious. http://www.wgcshop.com/ http://www.redwolfairsoft.com/redwolf/airsoft/Home http://www.uncompany.com/ http://www.dentrinityshop.com/index_ne.jsp Probably the 3 most important HK airssoftshops. Good for high-end guns, accesories, gear and parts. Guns are shipped via express mail only, so higher shipping costs and a higher chance to get busted by customs. http://www.airsoftglobal.com/ They carry both high-end and chinese stuff. Wich is good, especially when you need to buy both chinese and japanese stuff, you dont have to order form two different shops. Chinese guns and accesoires are usually a tad more expensive than at Gunners or Rsov. Expensive shipping though. Still good service and communication. http://www.airsoft-war4.com/ Unknown reliability. They have some interesting bits though. http://www.gunsnguys.com/home_ns.htm My favourite store back in the days when I still bought Marui guns, as they were cheaper than WGC or UNC. Akward website, but youll get used to it. Peter’s a great guy. http://www.gunnerairsoft.com/catalog/index.php?language=en http://rsov.com/index.php Basically, the two most imprtant stores for chinese guns and accesories. Shipping is not the fastest, but its not too bad. If you know the owners, you can get refunds for any lemons. If you dont... http://ebaybanned.com/ Basic shop for chinese gear (BDUs, vests, helmets, holsters, etc.) and accesories. Shipping is not free, but included in the price. Good for small orders. Has some problems with slow shipping and not giving people tracking numbers. You can get combined shipping for orders over 3-4 kilos. http://www.px-airsoft.com/index.do The main problem is they dont carry some basic stuff, so that you might end up ordering from somewhere lese, so as to not order form two places. Not so fast shipping, but nice guy and good comms. http://www.khmountain.com/airsoft/home.php Good service, good prices (sometimes better than Gunners with a discount). http://www.royaltigergear.com/shopping_cart.php Unknown reliability Mainly a gear store: they have all the basic stuff in BDUs and cheap vest, but also WWII clothing and Flye gear. Sometimes they have chicom rigs for 15$. http://www.crw-airsoft.com/index.asp Unknown reliability http://www.dragonredairsoft.com/airsoft/ho...st_locale=en_US Not so cheap, but it gets pretty good when you make bulk orders. http://www.shop.ehobbyasia.com/index.php Very expensive shipping for guns, but very cheap for small stuff. If you just want a pair of goggles or some replacement ball bearings for your grenade, this is the shop to go to. http://www.airsoftpark.com/ Unknown reliability Shipping included. Not much to choose from, but they do have the magpul knock-offs noone else has. http://www.apextacpro.com/ Shipping included. Not much to choose from. Some stuff is really cheap, some is more expensive than from other stores. http://www.sunnyhq.net/index.php?cPath=485 Unknown reliability Some Toysoldier and own production gear. Worth a look. Aslo cheap dummy M203 grenades! http://www.ratech.com.tw/eng_ra/index.php For your GBB rifles and Masadas needs! http://www.tokyoarms.com/index.php?cPath=34_106 Unknown reliability http://www.shootercbgear.com/ Unknown reliability (will order from them soon) Chinese stuff, most of it more expensive than Gunners, but you can find some bargains.

Its a pretty good idea , just one small detail, it might be an idea if you can include the location of the shop as well nothing too specific, just the country, state or town- whichever one you can find out, as well as were they ship to- its not good having the website for a lot of places in the US if you're not in the US cos they just wont ship outside CONUS.

Punkypink Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 Can I provide some known info about War4? I have sent them an inquiry with regards to purchasing a Tanaka J frame revolver a month back. They responded normally, in the same way that WGC would. Then, they quoted me the shipping cost, and thats where it went wrong. The shipping they quoted me was US$50. Now I had just recently had an order from WGC arrive, for a Tanaka K frame revolver. a K frame is bigger, and heavier than the J frame. I also managed to have a look and feel for the actual box the J frame comes in, and it is definately smaller and lighter packaged. WGC charged US$36 for shipping. I asked around other people in HK and for the same EMS speedpost, the quotes were all around US$30. So I sent an email back asking them to provide a breakdown of why their shipping charges were much higher, at which I essentially got a terse "sod off" email from them, and further emails have been ignored. I then asked 2 other forum members on arnies who're from Hong Kong and very knowledgable in the HK airsoft community, and both of them independently informed me that War4 was to be avoided. One cited their rudeness, while the other claims that War4 tried to charge him more than they should have. If either of them wish to voluntarily post in here, they will, but I will not name them otherwise. I will of course add a disclaimer that my experience is mine alone, and that if anyone else has had a good experience, they're welcome to post and I will not invalidate it. As for other known shops I have ordered from: ehobbyasia is ok WGC is ok RSOV is ok gunners is ok ebaybanned is ok (although a bit disorganised and slow, but cheap) I would like to add: http://www.tokyo-model.com.hk/ecshop/index.php unknow reliability (how ever i had an enquiry with them similiar to the one I sent War4. Unlike War4 they were very helpful, communications was good and they even offered to query Tanaka itself for me) Link to post Share on other sites
Stealthbomber Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 its not good having the website for a lot of places in the US if you're not in the US cos they just wont ship outside CONUS. BRILLIANT idea! Seriously, if you're an american and you're thinking of listing all the airsoft retailer in the USA PLEASE check the websites and list if they only ship domestically or whether they will ship to the rest of the world too. Might be worth emailing them to let them know the world isn't flat too. Link to post Share on other sites
Kraut Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 Botach Tactical (http://www.botachtactical.com) - Huge selection of items, easily navigable site, great prices, fast shipping (4 days at most, when I bought from them), and great customer service. Lots of great gear on sale often. I highly recommend them. Tad Gear (http://www.tadgear.com) - Very high quality outdoor adventure gear. Fairly good shipping time from Cali. SUPERB gear, made by former SF and current Airsoft players. Again, gear is innovative, excellent quality, and performs great Kastway Airsoft (http://www.kastwayairsoft.com) - Good selection of weapons, parts, and accessories and more. Some of the best customer service ever. When I bought an item that wasn't in stock, Rick Kastner called me to discuss what to do. Also great players! The Sportsmans Guide (http://www.sportsmansguide.com) - Large selection of international military surplus and other misc shooting gear at decent prices Chepaer Than Dirt (http://www.cheaperthandirt.com) - Same/brother site, more weapons-oriented. I've had personal experience with all of the above. Link to post Share on other sites

Hillslam Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 I've had two disputes with Botach and one had to be handled by Visa to get resolved. I will NEVER do busines with them again at all. Link to post Share on other sites
Crazy Rich 1983 Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 What kind of time frame for delivery would you expect for Gunner Airsoft? I made an order to them 11 days ago, and on my account on the site it still says "Order Confirmed and processing" is this normal? This is the first time i have ordered from a HK supplier, just need an idea of delivery times. Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites
Punkypink Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 I ordered from Gunnerairsoft before. a Galaxy MP5K. I placed and paid for the order on the 24th, the order status was updated to "Order confirmed and processing" on the 25th. Order was then updated to "Your order had been sent out" and a tracking number was supplied on the 29th. You might want to email them to find out what's going on, but I trust gunners. I also want to add more kudos to ehobbyasia. I recently ordered a metal G23 slide which arrived in 9 days despite me choosing the "very slow" option that costs only US$6.

apmaman Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 Ehobbyasia are fantastic. They have fast shipping even on the slow setting and the prices are pretty good. It depends on what you are buying though because a Rifle bag was about $60 to ship to the UK, more than what it cost! I guess big boxes mean big prices. I'd like to add http://www.scopeandlaser.com/ They tell you the shipping rate for each item and are marked as gift with a value of less than $20. The prices seem pretty good too. I've not used them yet but I shall soon. Looking to get one of those ACOG's with the dot sight. Link to post Share on other sites
Prev Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 I would like to add, http://www.novatcombat.com/ located in Guernsey in the Channel Islands. They are my local airsoft retailer and will get anything airsoft you ask for at a great price. Plus they always have a big range of Chinasoft in. Oh and they have a random TM P90 thats been sat around for months, I feel that someone should give it a home, before I have to. Link to post Share on other sites
AngryTrucker Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 Tokyo-model.com is quite good used them in for lots of things in the past, although their website is a bit outdated in terms of stock Boomarms... well lets just say when they're good they're good... but sometimes they'll just ignore you... Both of them usually have hard to get parts. Link to post Share on other sites
KMFDM Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 www.gunfire.pl Reliabilit unknown as of now. They seem serious enough however and tends to have some pretty awesome bargains at times. Link to post Share on other sites
MODDAN Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 Airsoft Buddy is a Hong Kong based airsoft retailer. Reliability is at current unknown since I placed my first order to them yesterday. Will update as soon as I manage to. Furthermore we have Begadi Airsoft Shop, located in Böhringen, Germany. reliability from my personal point of view is unknown. My last addition for now will be Supply Captain. An U.S. based retailer who ships internationally. Not as much airsoft, more useful bits and accessories. Bought a few bits from them using my credit card, items arrived a few days later by mail in an envelope, and I'm as happy as can be. Link to post Share on other sites
A Tobias Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 http://airsoftgi.com is pretty reliable and inside the US they ship very quickly too Link to post Share on other sites
Gorf Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 <snip> http://www.khmountain.com/airsoft/home.php Good service, good prices (sometimes better than Gunners with a discount). <snip> Can't agree about the "good service" thing with KHMountain. Ordered at the start of July, went into "waiting to process" and stayed there. Emailed after two weeks and was told they'd made a mistake and would fix it. Waited another two weeks, then I cancelled the order. Still not cancelled, still no refund. Link to post Share on other sites
Prev Posted August 9, 2009 Report Share Posted August 9, 2009 NoVatCombat Local retailer to me. They will try and source anything airsoft you ask for. Mainly deals with chinese clones and TM Pistols but like I mentioned anything you want they will get or attempt to get. Other good things is free shipping on all orders and No VAT so cheaper stuff.

Punkypink Posted August 9, 2009 Report Share Posted August 9, 2009 I concur with the above post on NoVatCombat. Ordered from them, cheap as chips, fast delivery. Link to post Share on other sites

aeviv Posted August 12, 2009 Report Share Posted August 12, 2009 http://www.xsiteairsoftshop.co.uk/ Shop based at Xsite Airsoft site in High Wycomb. Great little shop, staff are fantastic and they always have some gems and time for the customer. One of the few shops still having regular supply of the Cyma Thompson (both models). The website leaves much to be desired, but if you call them or visit the shop everything is much easier (they stock many items not listed on the website) Link to post Share on other sites
Punkypink Posted August 12, 2009 Report Share Posted August 12, 2009 Isn't that the one run by Minimiman, one of the guys who was involved with drafting up the VCRA? I had no idea it was that near London. Always thought he was up in Scotland or somewhere! lol. Might pop in for a looksee. Link to post Share on other sites
apmaman Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 I'd just like to chime in and say that scope and laser are absolutly amazing. Not only did they charge next to nothing for delivery, they have also taken a picture of the package they are sending me just to make sure I know what it is! How cool is that?
