    As an estimate, add about 26% of the price and that doesn't include 'handling fees' which an post usually charge. Just make sure that your gun is below the joule. Also if it's at all possible, order from Ireland. It's quicker,safer and can often be cheaper. If customs are unhappy with your gun they might send it away. And you won't get it for a few months......if ever.

    Ye, redwolf do have some good products alright. Ill be ordering a pack of ten g&p mids soon enough and the total cost adds,up to ~€100 after everything. That's far cheaper than buying them here :)

    As I've said before on other threads, it'll actually work out more expensive to try and import a gun yourself from Redwolf than to buy it here. However if the gun you want is not available in Ireland, what you could do is ask one of the Irish retailers like Hobby or Airsofteire to import one for you.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,971 ✭✭✭Seller159


    yeah they have great stuff on there. im really interested in handguns and shotguns and they have some lovely ones there that iv never even seen here atall so thats why i want to know about them.

    Got a box of 10 g&p mids off of hobbyairsoft in dublin for 100 euro mate, bulk bought.
    Worth a shot!!
    As for.buying abroad, it all depends what it is, accessories like sights and stuff hmmm yea id do that, camo and stuff yea... Guns.... Na, not worth the hassle and the nervous wait fr a few days waiting for a letter in the door saying your order has been sent for checking...
    We've all heard stories... Its not nice!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,971 ✭✭✭Seller159


    yeah i no what you mean man its not nice having to wait on something an then be disappointed you know? so accessories is fine but guns is a no no? i was thinking of just taking a shot and ordering a nice gun but then again i don't think i want to take that chance.

    Really, when did you buy them, I didn't see it on their website at all. Are they metal? I'll give kev a shout and ask if the mags are still in stock. I'd well rather buy them here.
    Thanks for that :)

    Hobby airsoft are now dealing with redwolf the past 3 weeks or so. they would be able to get what guns u want easy and alot less hassle for u.

    While it might be cheaper on Redwolf, don't forget to add the customs and courier charges which will make the Redwolf gun actually dearer than the same equivalent inIrish shops. Another option is to buy from an EU retailer such as Taiwangun who are based in Poland. You'll avoid customs charges but make sure they downgrade the gun to below 1 joule.

    However, I'd still buy from an Irish shop regardless for the great after sales back up.

    yes Hobby should be able to get it in for you, as far as i know they wait for a few people to order in gear and then order all of it in one go. Could be wrong on that though.

    if you're ordering from Taiwangun be careful of their energy output, they're based in Poland so the AEG's they sell will be considerably higher than the one joule limit we have here.

    ok well thanks alot for the info man:)
