Macks airsoft dreamers of the week thread

And my contribution today, direct off face ache. Ticking all the boxes of ££ (sorry €€€€), vague upgrades, single picture and inappropriate posting location.

I'm assuming the decimal point has been put in the wrong place? £200 for that?

Conflicted, yes over priced, sure won't dispute that and the number of issues it has is a serious concern, but: it is a long barreled 1911 not dissimilar to the 'hardballer' from terminator....if it was here id make an offer

Of £100 knowing id over paid...

Reading between the lines...
"I absolutely love this gun and have no desire to sell it whatsoever. I've put it up for sale because the wife said I have too many and I need to keep her sweet. So up it goes for £200, now please move along to something you might actually buy. Thanks for looking :D"
 
One for you lot off the WhatsApp groups.
EMG ghetto blaster: £350 new.
Plus maybe £100 of internal upgrades if you paid through the teeth for them.
And maybe another £150 of furniture (again if you paid premium for Ali express parts).
Second hand price: £650 🙄

You could build one brand new for that price and still have change left over for the bottle of gas he’s throwing in for free.

How does the seller not get that upgrades are diminishing returns from a reselling point when they replace original parts instead of being added?

265mm inner barrel on a ~7" handguard? Isn't that going to protrude from the muzzle, never mind the outer barrel? I assume the suppressor covers it?

Yes and yes. The guy has a cheap suppressor to cover the barrel.

I worked it out and brand new, it can’t have cost him more thank £635 new… so he’s charging £15 over retail for something second hand…
