Like what? and is there anyone in Mb. that is currently accessible and verifying?-because I can't seem to find anyone. The closest I came was 2 years ago, I went to an event that a verifier was supposed to be at all day but apparently took off after less than an hour,(and 20min before I showed up). : (

The list of AV'ers is dated. Best to check for regular games near you to see if anyone in attendance can age verify you. And given the nature around airsoft guns, sometimes buying used or modified is beneficial. Some guns of certain brands may be prone to wear and tear so players install aftermarket parts, tune up their guns, and break it all in to run smoothly at a fraction of the cost of buying the gun and parts yourself then finding a gundoc to work out the finer details unless you can do it all yourself.

My "team" or airsoft group has a tech. I have no problems with upgrades or repairs. I wouldn't risk buying from someone unknown anyway. Just wondering if I'm missing anything worth all the trouble of tracking someone down. I'm not a fan of the type of game the other groups/teams play so I won't likely join in one of their events.(My "team" is just a group of guys who like going out and shooting each other but none of us has the time to commit to training and playing consistantly together as a competitive team).

I tried both of the listed Mb. guys b4 and neither answered me so I guess I'm out of luck anyway.

I sent slow a pm, we'll see if I get a response. Still no one has told me what the advantage is other than classifieds...?

Age verified retailers section, where you can see all the ASC supporting gun retailers and even have access to some ASC exclusive offers.

Av section, where most information about importation is and retailer reviews are

The trash disposal, where you can see some pretty moronic exemples of what not to do on ASC.

Theres allot of benefits, retailers who also are very knowledgable and able to get some rarer or harder to find guns/gear into the country.

Or some retailers who do pre-orders for AV'd memebers of ASC. I've done the KWA MP7, ICS GLM, TM M870, to name a few...all when retailers weren't bringing any of these items in on a regular.

depending on your ability to google-fu, once you're AVed you can ask where to find specific guns or items (and get answers), as it stands, the community's policy is not to divulge where to get what guns from what retailers.

It makes things a bit easier if you are part of the community. I have friends though who do just fine without it, but mainly because they're not forum savvy, nor do they care to spend hours upon hours combing through internet forums for info they need when they are resourceful enough to get it with their own google skills.

This.

Just get Age Verified, its pretty easy. Check your local airsoft dealers, they're usually on ASC.
or find a 'verifier' and meet them
