US stors?

Whats a good store in the US the buy internals and accrsories from? I dont like all my stuff having to be shipped from Japan.

Iv done some looking around but they all seem to either sell WAY over priced or chinacrap soft.

Thanks

The internals from U.S retailers comes from Japan/China anyways why should it matter if you get it from a U.S retailer?

I guess shipping is faster.

Personally I hate waiting too and just go bug ASC when I need parts ASAP.

uhhh no, this is all with in parts and we talk with the parts manager and he doesnt care. Its comming on a skid sized box of car parts and the AS stuff will just a be a filler for boxes that are never full.

their non restricted items, not guns and bs like that, just internals. It all so helps when one of us is the head shipper reciever.

Dont wory man, im not a dumb ass. I know how this sport works, things you learn after playing for 3 years!

thanks for your concern thow.

i can see that, unless its COMPLETELY disassembled then they kind of look like a funny gun and its better to be safe then sorry for crossing the boarder.

We know a few guys in the stats at different dealerships so were going to ask for them to be torn right down. Ah networking its a great thing.

Why the shit would they sieze a mechbox? I guess the trigger might have given it away but other than that...

I just did an order from evike down in Calafornia. Hasn't gotten here yet, and I'm not terrebly happy with the lack of communication I have had with them. So I would recommend not shoping with them. It is my first order, so maybe I'm just new to all this and everything is running just fine.

I sure as hell would not have airsoft parts smuggled in ANY way into the country, specially NOT in work-related containers.

Not only can you get the stuff seized, and the container of (I guess) important parts seized too, but you're in for a lot of legal hell. I'd also choose between getting an airsoft gun part and having a job.

Customs has seized, and searched, stranger things before. Machinery packages and containers are scanned because it is a favorite smuggling method.

Your choice, but man...

true, its easier to smuggle 50lbs of coke with a semi full of other things. So far non of the US sites look like they carry any thing i need that i cant get from JP with the rest of the stuff.
