Docv400 Posted April 2, 2006 Report Share Posted April 2, 2006 What are you thinking of buying... OK *takes deep breath* King Arms/AtoZ Springer Dragunov, AK74 or Beta Spetsnaz, MP7, AK47S (for friend) GBB pistol, and my eldest son wants a couple of GBBs and my youngest son wants a bolt action rifle maybe, plus spare mags for these....plus I'm getting a stack of general spare-parts for me and some for a couple of friends. ...how much money are you thinking of spending? As much as it costs I guess Have you spoken to Bronney? I'd like to meet him as well as he's been so helpful with all this (as you all have, I really appreciate it all), I'd like to buy you all a drink or two...He's not been well, so if he can make it later in the week I'd go for that option. Also, Ubijza is out here now too, would be cool if we could all meet up at once. Link to post Share on other sites
JCYC5 Posted April 2, 2006 Report Share Posted April 2, 2006 On a totally unrelated note... There is a guy here who is quitting airsoft...and selling all his stuff. http://community.webshots.com/album/548916058zuexIC Everything you see there for $21000 HKD... Currently not selling his stuff seperately, but maybe he will after time... Link to post Share on other sites

No problem, I'm sure we can get it sorted out...nothing like shopping with someone else... I love it myself! Thanks for your drink offer! I'm sure we'll hold that against you... I haven't spoken to Bronney for a bit now... and he doesn't seem to have been posting. Hope he gets well soon! I agree...it'd be best to have the shopping spree later on in the week if that's what would suit him to most. Link to post Share on other sites
You Posted April 2, 2006 Report Share Posted April 2, 2006 Trust me, if you don't speak a countries' language, you don't want to try to get iffy things through customs. You're best off shipping it home. See if the retailer could ship it for you. Link to post Share on other sites

Docv400 Posted April 2, 2006 Report Share Posted April 2, 2006 I'm not worried about taking all this stuff with me, you just tell them what you have and a nice armed policeman takes you to a room and goes through it all to check it's all Airsoft gear. Then they slap a sticker on your bag(s) to show it's been checked and off you go. They must do it just about every day here, it's no big deal. Shipping is a relatively big chunk of cash I don't intend spending, there's 6 of us, so that's a lot of suitcase space. We only brought 4 out here and one of those was just about empty, so I'll be buying two more cheap cases here. When my Sister-in-law brought some parts to England for me recently, they were only interested in the bags of BBs really, the motors, barrels, springs etc, they pretty much ignored. I'll be stripping the guns down for packing anyway, except maybe the pistols and MP7. JCYC5. I'll ring you this evening around 8 if that's OK, and I think a late afternoon/evening on thurs or friday would be best for everyone, or sat evening if that's best for you. I'll ring Bronney again and see how he is and if he's heard from Ubijza. Doc out... Link to post Share on other sites

Docv400 Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 So much to do, so little time... I've had a little recce into Mong Kok already (just couldn't wait ) went in last night (Monday) and went into Tokyo Model (where I bought an MP7 (104 quid...there's no pound sign on this laptop)) and a WE Hi-Capa 5.1 GBB, all metal, for 47 quid. Spare mags for the MP7 were 8 quid and batteries 7.30 G 'n' G were closed, as were Dentrinity and a few little places I've never even seen on the 'net or heard of. I'm pushed for time now, I'll do a proper report later Friday seems good for everyone. I'll ring you guys tomorrow or thursday and we'll arrange our meeting. Doc out...

Ubijza Posted April 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 OK! Since we are all here... where abouts are we gonna meet?? I'll be looking for a GBB or other pistol ( at least:) Also the S3 skirmish offer sounds interesting (if a tad expensive). Will somebody else come there? Did anyone have any experience with them?

JCYC5 Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 We can meet Friday... I can do whatever time suits people around here Link to post Share on other sites

Did anyone have any experience with them? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> most pay sites in HK cost around the same its 230-280 for rentals or 130-180 if you have everything they have around 30-50 ppl each sunday, so you wont be alone Link to post Share on other sites
Docv400 Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 How about meeting outside Guns 'n' Guys? I can be there at around 5pm if that's good for everyone. A little bit earlier or later is OK... Link to post Share on other sites
Ubijza Posted April 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 @Docv400: Sounds fine to me! Are you thinking of going some Sunday game (eg the S3 one)? @Sirrith: Thanks for the info, much appreciated! I'm thinking of signing up there then:) Do you know of any skirmishes on some other days? Link to post Share on other sites
sirrith Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 sorry, i think that the stores only organise sunday games. any other day, you need 20+ people, and organise your own private game. if you plan on going on sunday, you'll have to sign up on friday (they need to book transport etc... so you cant just turn up on the day and say you're going) im pretty sure ill be coming too on sunday, with JCYC, and maybe bronney if he feels like it 5pm outside GnG... hmm, shouldnt be a problem btw, whats your name? -Thomas Link to post Share on other sites
JCYC5 Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 Doc, interested in the Sunday pay game? (I'm Jeff) Link to post Share on other sites
