Yay, I'm popular. Call me Alex.

Seriously though, I am not worried about this at all. I suggest everyone here thats trying to figure out whether this is a "scam" or not, stops talking and waits for results instead of speculating. Starting a business is hard, stop bitching. I know there have been scams here in the past, but just relax for now, I will keep you guys updated throughout.

So far, they have excellent communication, reasonable responses to my "suspicious" question, and are giving me an awesome deal. The only problem is the pictures posted earlier, and the fact that their photos of their finished models look more real then anything I've seen yet. There is no reason why they can't in fact do such a good job of making models. Adam told me they do a lot more finishing work then Cushman.

Thus, I'm not worried. If I don't get my Thompson, at least this debate will be over.

Some of you guys are really giving them a hard time. Back off, there have not been any transactions yet.

Cheers,
Alex

+1. I'm willing to give these guys the benefit of the doubt at the moment. All I know is that if they are perfectly legit and Alex posts a good review of his replica, these guys are probably going to get more than enough business to make up for the sketpicism on ASC.

i hope you do so everyone can see, i really want to see. you should make a new thread with the pics!

Just make sure you have a cell handy when you don't receive what you payed for.
Dude, I'm gonna remember exactly what you're saying, so if this turns out to be legit (which I suspect it is, because what scam artist in their right mind would actually bother to A: sign up on a forum and B: remain in contact on the forum even though he's being given boatloads of verbal crap by people like you? No frauds gonna bother actually remaining on the thread after the first round of "You're a fraud, I hate you, burn in hell, your pics suck, nobody buy from this, you people buying just want the cheapest way to getting guns.") There is no way in HELL you're gonna live it down if you buy one of these guns and I get wind of it.

Like I said before if they are legit, be legit 100%. Keep it 18+. Otherwise as far as I care your not legit. You placing replicas in the hands of children otherwise, and causing the sport more problems then it needs.

They dont need to sell over the internet, they live in the largest market possible in Canada as it is. No reason they cant be happy with local in person sales.

Rainer I feel for you. 16yr olds and younger can responsibly have and use rifles, but not toy pellet guns. Lol. Liberals and their thinking, if it can be called that. Thank God they're out of gov't at least!

I agree they should allow local pick-ups, not only could we see all thier product (some new arrivals and what not, that haven't posted yet) and it would reduce thier shipping costs, either making them more profit, or allowing them to lower prices even more...

If you aint legit, you aint shit.


The vested ASC community agreed to go +18 in the best interest of the game itself....


Riiight. Your 100% there. Its the Liberals who dont want guns in the hands of you poor, poor minors...because you know, we see all the time in the news how responsible minors are with replica guns...
Liberals and Conservatives alike will tell you that minors should not have guns. You can blame the left all you want, but the real reason minors are not allowed to have guns is because its A STUPID F*CKING IDEA!
Agreed. I'd rather wait 3 years to turn 18 than to risk seeing a shitload of immature minors getting their hands on Airsoft and getting the whole thing banned. There aren't enough responsible minors for airsoft to be allowed to be sold to minors, IMO.

Or... maybe we do have interest, but we just don't want to waist our time fighting about what we thing with people like you. We support your 18+ idea and we are following it. What more can I say? I don't have to use ASC to check someones age.
