He ended up with a US batch gun. It is stripped of all trades.

The full trades one are Asia editions with upgrades to bump the FPS. Hence why the MP5K was sold with the upgraded silencer to up the FPS to comply to Canada import laws.

PP's verdict is that I'm eligible for only a full refund, under the condition that I return the item as is and I'm responsible for shipping/handling. I cancelled the claim and initiated a dispute through Amex. Sent them a 3 page report of the situation so hopefully they'll be able to assist with the matter better.
What you have is authentic. Believe me, there is a batch of VFC guns that have no trades because they are trying to comply with US import laws.
