it is good for people that know what they are buying...
some prices are cheaper than the bigger Gunfire.pl
range of stock is not as vast as GF
but delivery is cheaper and TWG don't bolt you up with a paypal fee
They don't offer two-tone afaik, so defense required to order
range of spares is not as big as GF, some spares are cheaper/more expensive
some parts/accessories are from lesser known manufacturers
& some are very good and some not so good & a few are shit tbh
(really should have a feedback/review section for items but hey ho)
They used to offer free shipping to UK on 350 orders like GF
but stopped that about two years ago - bastards,
(still do free ship to Ireland so blame Brexit)
used to do a points/loyalty thing like GF but stopped that about 5 years ago
(GF points is completely shit now - fuck all being offered for points, not even free delivery for XXX points)
TWG stock some stuff that GF doesn't, some stuff is same similar
(eg budget cheapo Cyma CM.5xx is renamed Spartac on GF)
You won't find VFC, G&G etc... on TWG but likely something that floats your boat
as said - it is a good site if you know what you are looking for
read up, compare with GF and decide for yourself
a close second to GF, sometimes better than GF depending on what you are after

That, pretty much. I've done two biggish orders with them with no problems. You will find yourself adding more and more stuff in order to justify the postage cost though. 
Expect a full week for delivery. Packaging can be somewhat haphazard, they tend to just throw everything together and wrap it up in strong plastic rather than boxing it.
They do a free power downgrade service: https://www.taiwangun.com/en/free-downgrade.html
But they don't offer painting or the other fitting options that GunFire does: https://gunfire.com/en/menu/technical-support-2869.html
Decide what you want, price it up on both sites, consider somewhere UK based like like PatrolBase, and factor in postage costs and times.
