HSOJGNILRAD Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 Well I ordered another WE M4 Carbine from Airsoft Buddy two and a half weeks ago and I havent heard anything from him. I'm not sure if its shipped or not, but I'd sure love my gun... yeah I hear you My friend and I held off on ordering mags and the aluminum bolt carrier because there have been a lot of people saying AB aren't replying to customers emails. I order 5 mags from them 3 months ago and I had no problems. Who knows what their issue is . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
accuracy Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 Wasn't there a stateside shop recently declared official dealer by WETTI (i.e., they carry the ver 2 GBB)? Maybe give them a shot. One of them that posted as GGI is called Horizon Tactical Airsoft. There was another I remember, but the name escapes me at the moment. Yeah I would but no trades : [ Someone please notify us when he comes back In contact Quote Link to post Share on other sites
slu Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 Yeah I would but no trades : [ Someone please notify us when he comes back In contact The Colt traded lower is something like $35 if I remember correctly. If you want yours fast, it might be better solution. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
accuracy Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 (edited) The Colt traded lower is something like $35 if I remember correctly. If you want yours fast, it might be better solution. Yeah but the shipping from hk I think is another 30 dollars. I don't think it's worth it since the last afc gun I saw in us was already 415 on another us site. Horizon seems to be OOS. but 375 is a really good deal Edited February 26, 2009 by accuracy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vila Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 I just ordered mine from AB on Friday, so I should be hearing from him by tomorrow on the shipping notification, according to the site. Whether or not I get an email immediately, I just hope it ships. I ordered the $430 package with the extra mag and paid an extra $20 for speed post, if that helps any.

hazmatt Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 I can confirm that the Magpul ASAP sling mount fits perfectly on the WE, and is a sweet mount. It is so simple I don't know why anyone else didn't come up with it sooner. Also, the MS2 sling is the best sling I have ever used, all my weapons will be using this sling from now on.

Countfloyd Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 yeah I hear you My friend and I held off on ordering mags and the aluminum bolt carrier because there have been a lot of people saying AB aren't replying to customers emails. I order 5 mags from them 3 months ago and I had no problems. Who knows what their issue is . Totally correct, more than two emails sent to Airsoft Buddy (about purchasing problems) and none of them have been answered.And I need the new parts urgently...

Marky [UE] Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 (edited) I too have an outstanding parts order with AB from the 5th February (don't really need them now as the orginal parts have not failed... touch wood). I have not received any tracking details yet and I have no idea where it currently is (I would assume it should have arrived by now). In the past William at AB has been very good at keeping on top of emails. I got an email from him on the 16th but it didn't contain my tracking details or any order related information. I really hope on a personal level everything is ok for William and/or AB, this current trend does seem rather sudden and out of character. Making the assumption that AB is a small business operated by William any unexpected impact on his personal life would unavoidably affect the business.

sandstorm Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 L119-A1 is something I considered would be a great selling product . Markings and pics have been sent to WETTI for his viewing Well, I said 1 in 3 because I thought that one in three have already converted an AEG at high cost and are going to be snotty about it. And another third are upset because they want to replicate non-UKSF loadout, who wouldn't need the L119A1, but an L85A2... Of course, if WE can squeeze a variant of this into a bullpup frame, nine out of ten gun layouts ahve been covered. I think only layouts they wouldn't have covered would be pump- and lever-actions.

1st Commando Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 I have actually done an aeg L119-A1 but would certainly like to see a conversion kit for the WE. I can imagine some L119-A1 users will be upset at first though Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LordElpus Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 I have actually done an aeg L119-A1 but would certainly like to see a conversion kit for the WE. I can imagine some L119-A1 users will be upset at first though then they would find themselves £400 lighter i would assume Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Whether or not I get an email immediately, I just hope it ships. I ordered the $430 package with the extra mag and paid an extra $20 for speed post, if that helps any. Good luck... I ordered a new upper set on the 9th, paid a total of $51 shipping (Speed Post), and still haven't gotten my stuff. I also haven't received any response to my email requesting some kind of tracking info. If it doesn't arrive by tomorrow, I'm filing a chargeback with my CC company. I'll NEVER order from Airsoft Buddy again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Countfloyd Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 (edited) Hey guys there are some good news for people that has problems with power of our WE´s (exceding limits for playing with it). Hope that also goes out for WE. Regards Edited February 26, 2009 by Countfloyd Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hope that also goes out for WE. Regards Already saw their demo video. They seem to be making "rocket science" out of nothing with all their "negative pressure technology principals".... Rather than adjust the space between the floating valve with a shim, you can simply thread (or unthread) the spacing with their new design. No big deal, something similar could be done on the WE as well. What I >would< like to see with this system is a lock-down for the adjustment wheel.

Involved6 Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 The recent feedback about AB is quite damning. Up until about 3 or so weeks ago, he seemed like the man to beat, and now he's not even responding to Emails? Shame. I was going to order one from him as soon as I had the dough, too.

4boost Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 I ordered some parts from him about 2 weeks ago and haven't heard from him after emails asking if my package was shipped/ tracking number requests. Opened a paypal dispute today. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cephas Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 I hope Willam is doing ok. I know that AB is just a distributer of the WE M4 and parts. But the problem is AB is the only one offering internal parts right now. People are aware of the issues surrounding this gun and through this amazing thread and efforts by rottenotto have found solutions to these issues. But that doesn't help if they can't get parts in a timely manner. WETTI while AB is just a distributer they are the only ones offering internal parts currently. From this thread recently people have been patiently waiting for parts for almost a month. There needs to be more distributors asap, especially state side. I have checked US distributors and they are either not working or don't have items available. As a WE M4 user this makes me frustrated because where can I go to get parts? In anycase WETTI you guys have been dong great in terms of listening to feedback from users and providing solutions. I hope this issue gets ironed out soon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lughnasadhuk Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 www.tacticalquartermaster.co.uk Mark has a few spares in stock. I second that. I ordered spare charging handle, bolt stop and a pack of #122 washers and received them after about 3 days. He is looking to get powerup kits and is working directly with WETTI i believe.

We're already working with a few USA distributors (as well as Europen ones) specifically on parts distribution. I'll post their respective sites once the deals are inked. They're all putting their parts order together right now, so I truly believe that in a few weeks' time (max), all you faithfuls out there will have almost immediate access to most of the "high maintenance" parts, as well as custom after-market parts! Please just be patient with us for just another bit.... Thank you all for your understanding! WETTI Quote Link to post Share on other sites
devilstar2k2 Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 I ordered some parts from him about 2 weeks ago and haven't heard from him after emails asking if my package was shipped/ tracking number requests. Opened a paypal dispute today. The thing that upsets me is that he/they had no problem answering my emails BEFORE they had my money. After I paid, I got no reply at all. Hopefully, everyones items will arrive despite the poor customer service. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

YES, Mark is one of the guys I'm working with at the moment & TQM will soon become a WETTI-authorized parts/service center. He hasn't gotten his order in place yet, so pls give him some time before you guys go asking him for parts, alright? Others I'll post here as soon as everything is set.
