And this is why metal and wood should be used. Plastic is just a cheap attempt to lessen spending but provide better mobility. Bleh plastic works better on airsoft then real life.Quote:

No... Technically an airsoft gun falling in the 407-500FPS mark is an "Uncontrolled Firearm" meaning no licenses are required to own, posses, use, or import.Quote:

I know of three separate cases where it took the people fighting their seizure notice 12+ months to have the airsoft gun released. The CBSA need to verify the velocities if they have any doubt in which cause it gets sent to the RCMP for a Firearms Reference Table entry that categorizes that make and model of airsoft gun and it's velocities as recorded by the RCMP for future reference. If it actually falls within the 407-500 FPS range then it will be deemed an Uncontrolled Firearm and released, as will all future models. If it doesn't fall in the 407-500 FPS range it will be destroyed with no refund from anyone.
If it falls into the "Uncontrolled Firearm" category then there's no need for translucent bits or anything. Here's a few Canadian legal SRC guns that have been approved for importation (don't try it yourself though, best bet is through a legit Canadian retailer still):
M16 Series
AK Series
MP40
The whole translucent/smoked/clear receiver fiasco was due to missing some legalese mumbo-jumbo in the importation laws about the 407-500 FPS exception. Basically it says "replicas aren't replicas if they're clear-ish and obviously not real, therefore a-okay to import". The 407-500 FPS stuff actually requires some government involvement, and is therefore more complicated to deal with. That's why the translucent guns had their run for awhile in Canada.
Most of the CYMA and D-Boys AKs should be able to go through then, once the bullshit is dealt with. All of those guns shoot way hot at the expense of rate of fire.
You guys have the strangest laws on guns. It's not that they necessarily suck as much as they are so confused and backwards.
Yeah, the full law has something to do with the fact that the projectile from an airsoft gun isn't "lethal" unless fired at the 407 - 500 FPS range. Once it enters the "lethal" category it becomes a firearm instead of a replica or toy.
Yeah, sounds retarded and dumb and contradictory to the extreme. Because it is...
Damn you Freelancer for showing me a better MP40 then my current one. God dammit ffffffff now I need to get rid of my old mp40 for the SRC MP40. Due to a fact I hate the lack of a actual charging handle for mine that goes forward. Blah one of these days...
No orange tips in Hong Kong. There are streets lined with shops. Obviously I won't be able to get full models past customs back into the US, but there's plenty of upgrades and accessories to be had for 50+% cheaper than from any websites that are available in North America. I'll be sure to pick up a full set of multicam fatigues before I leave. For some reason I can't seem to find a mediocre set in the US for a reasonable price and now I can get the full set for less than $25 USD.
Yo bring me back a black tip 14mm neg for a M4. Please :3 lmao
How much for a deagle? :3
Seems like the best brand around is Marui, then the rest are China clones like dboys. I picked up a set of 4 rail covers for around $9. They are identical to these but are labelled dboys. Says a lot about evike's stock lol
Wait how much do metal rails cost for an M4 there? All I got is just a plastic handguard and I seriously don't want to cash $55 for full metal ris rails atm....
