Burlington airsoft Store

I recently discovered this store in Burlington Ontario
www.sofpaintball.com. I did a Search on the store on ASC, but only found posts/threads on the Hamilton field. I've saved up around 400$ for an airsoft gun since November, I know I should be Age verified but the distance is pretty far to meet the person who can Age verify me (Mississauga). The Soldier of Fortune Store in Burlington can order TM & Firepower Airsoft guns, I was shocked when I saw the prices (400-500$ for different TM airsoft & 200$ for Firepower airsoft). I should order a TM airsoft gun to replace my AK-74 Springer from the San Francisco in Jackson Square Hamilton (I'm embarrassed to have this crappy airsoft, but everyone has at least 1 airsoft crap in there life).

But anyways, I've been to scared to even post in this forum because of my newbie ways and because I'm still only 16. Plus most of you are adults and hate to hear from a younger brat to wants to try airsoft but should wait till he's 18. I've read threads on the forums about kids who post about airsoft and get flamed like mad, which scared me a lot .

In conclusion, why haven't anyone posted about this cheap airsoft store in Burlington. Or maybe I'm a newbie and don't know why this store is bad? You can phone them up and ask them about there TM Prices.

If they can safely order some TM this might be a good alternative to Mark and Ken. Not that they're not good but a third store sounds cool.

I am however not convinced yet, their online store isn't available and I think they might not be aware of the laws and customs regarding airsoft.

At the store, they told me that all of there airsoft was bought from the factories . I'm not quite sure if that is true or not. I would think that they bought it from a wholesale or something similar.

I use to live right down the street from this store and it seemed like a pure paintball store to me, unless they've changed in the last year. Anyways, don't give them a penny until they have the gun instock.

They said, they got a few people requesting airsoft for the store for around a year. They also told me if airsoft gets big in sales, they might sell it at the Hamilton store.

They have 3 display Airsoft there but only for show, I remember seeing a Firepower M4, Kraken Aftermass Clear AK 47 with a broken Stock, & a TM M4. The Firepowers are 200$ each and the TM was 400$. But they are only for display.

Well, ask and ye shall recieve.

(yes I know, owned for hotlinking, but the image is on page 2)

I have a better one on my desk top of a girl in a bikni washing a windshield with a view from the drivers side, but Im not at home right now so what I have to offer will have to make due.

As for your request WMK, Id be wary, although I do not live in your province, I cannot speak for the retailer, but listen well to the advice you are given, from those in and around your region. Sometimes the temptation of cheaper airsoft can be very blinding. So tread lightly, and keep an open mind.

Many retailers in the states will tell you that they will ship you an item and it makes it no problem, but that is not always the case. Ive worked retail before when I was younger, I remeber that I wasnt above down right lying to a customers face and telling them that " yes that jacket is very slimming and very sexy and up to date" when in fact it was the most hideous thing we had on the racks at the time, but it got the sale done. Im not calling the retailer you are inquiring about a bunch of liars, Im just saying that sometimes people only tell you what you want to hear because they want your money.

The matter of age is a dead beaten rotting horse and noone listens anyways, so I will not go there.

That is all I can offer
