well shipping for a dboys m4 and a cyma ak comes to 248.20 on rsov and the french site is 345.50 however their shipping cost is very very low, so if you were ordering a large amount it might balance out keeping in mid you wont be paying any customs if ordered in france...it would have to be something like a group buy tho..also you would also get it in days i suspect.

This is true. After all they are only accros the channel. But keith has quoted me 210€ for the M4 CASV, a DE USP AEP, a box of 8 mags for the M4 and a 2pk mag for the USP. This includes shipping and add on say about €50 for customs. Hmmm still think I will go with Keith.

i also noticed rsov for a galaxy mp5k is more expensive then wgcshop, again not by much, altho rsov has a greater selection...

one other thing i noticed, rsov seems to have the weight of their package overstated, for instance a cyma ak-74 is weighed at 3090grams on wgcshop but is weighed at 4500grams on rsov. now that doesnt amount to much except if you are buying multiple items...

another is the galaxy mp5k with stock, that is weighed at a 3500grams on rsov but on wgcshop it is weighed at 1790grams. i also checked uncompany and the galaxy is also weighed at 1790grams. it costs 65 dollars on wgc and uncompany but costs 67.48 on rsov. now it is only 2 dollars but with the 'exta' weight it means you jump into a different class for delivery if buying more then one item (and lets be honest we typically all order more)...and that does add quite a bit. if i get a chance i might just ask uncompany or wgc what the shipping for these would be to do a direct comparison.
The weights on RSOV seem to be the same as those on Gunners.

Going to have to have a word with some people to figure out what the deal is .
Hi O1sin, did you find out any more on this? So does this mean that to stay legal we could not use pointing devices or scopes at HRTA on our Airsofts?

Scopes and red-dots technically arnt ok either because they're in theory able to be fitted to a firearm...as said yet another grey area in Irish law.

just an update to the above
this is taken from the legisalation

( g ) save where the context otherwise requires, any component part of any article referred to in any of the foregoing paragraphs and, for the purposes of this definition, the following articles shall be deemed to be such component parts as aforesaid.

(i) telescope sights with a light beam, or telescope sights with an electronic light amplification device or an infra-red device, designed to be fitted to a firearm specified in paragraph (a), (b), (c) or (e), and

my reading is that light emmiting sights eg laser and night vision sights are illegal under this act being as most of them mount on to a 20mm rail which is a copy of the real steal versions.
I think

here where i got it from http://193.178.1.79/1990/en/act/pub/...l#zza12y1990s4

So if a there was a light emmiting/laser sight or night vision sight that was designed for airsoft, then it would be legal. So, any such item made by an airsoft manufacturer could be within the law. Question is, do they exist?
