Has he been fooled or buyairsoft.ca dint send the right gun? or is this the actual gun there showing? please awnser asap

Take a picture of the magazine it came with for me please.

The Styrofoam it comes with looks like the stuff that comes with the JG guns... but that Styrofoam is probably mass produced and sold to all the clone airsoft makers.

I'm not sure... I know JG re-sells to alot of companies that just stamp their name on it and send it out the door.. but I'm not sure about DPMS.

Like the clear Sig552 that is aviable on many canadian websites, it's a JG, but Cybercrap took it and renamed it using trademarks... but its is a JG inder all that make-up!

skalnok December 19th, 2008 19:06

Need a better pic please. I think DPMS is a JG rebrand, most likly they just stamp there little tiger head on it.

Styrak December 19th, 2008 19:15

I carry DPMS branded JG M4A1's, but they are all black.

It's very possible.

aZn_triXta07 December 19th, 2008 19:24

DPMS also makes M4s for WALMART that looks similar to that.

Take off the handguards and part of the delta ring and take a picture for us.

Sully December 19th, 2008 19:29

The fine print under the description is this: Manufacturer- Jing Gong/DPMS/palco sports. From that I'd say it's a rebranded JG but that's just me.

Gunny_McSmith December 19th, 2008 19:46

i live in the Ottawa area... if you want we could meet somewhere and I could take a look at it...but it looks llike a JG...

Amos December 19th, 2008 19:50

That's a JG.

johjoh December 19th, 2008 19:53

and Paulu im not the one whos owning that gun its my friend who just turned 18 november but maybe when i get 18 2 more years just got 16 on the 11th dec

JamesBond_007 December 19th, 2008 20:04

So I don't mean to thread jack, but the Walmart AEGs are infact DPMS thus, they are JG?

johjoh December 19th, 2008 20:07

maybe, maybe not but most dpms at walmart are really scrap because of low metal parts (what i think)

JamesBond_007 December 19th, 2008 20:08

Certainly interesting as a concept anyway, considering they are only about $100. Even if you had to swap out the receiver for something more...black.

Crunchmeister December 19th, 2008 20:10

Walmart guns are not in the same league as JG. That's why they're that cheap. They're just junk and not compatible with anything.

The Walmart ones are not JG.

I purchased one to check it out, when I took it apart I found that the outer barrel and the upper receiver are in fact ONE piece.

The Saint December 19th, 2008 20:11

Had a look at a WalMart gun the other day. The mechbox and gears were plastic.

Tex December 19th, 2008 20:21

again just because it says DPMS on it that means jack all. they make firearms not toys. TM could make a replica of DPMS if they wanted it is just a trademark.

True but DPMS actually trademarks it themselves.

kalnaren December 19th, 2008 22:22

I thought Firepower made one called the "Panther"?

johjoh December 19th, 2008 22:26

yeah in my manual is says " thank you for purchasing the firepower a-15 blah blah shit shit poop lol "

Amos December 19th, 2008 22:29

All the clone ones, JG basically whosales to a WHOLE bunch of companies that just stamp their name onto it.

New Firepower guns are more often than not Old JG
Panther Arms is more often than not JG

I'm starting to wonder if JG even sells "JG" guns... Maybe they get 'em from another factory lol.
