Full Metal KWA USP (full size) - $200 anyone?

[Mafioso_Grande]

Okay, people, I contacted Randy at DEA about the possibility of a KWA USP FMU pre-order sale, along the same lines as his WE sale. He gave me the following reply:

Well, we certainly could do that if there was enough demand. The only problem is that to do orders like a KWA USP FMU, we have a min. order amount with the manufacturer of 240 pcs. that is what we did with the KWA G19's FMU long ago. That is why the price can be so good. So anyone coming to me that can even assure me 100 sales out of the 240, without sitting on the inventory for 6 months to a year will get me to do for sure The 100 Sales would not even cover our cost, but it would make up enough that I would probably do the order. Also, the price would also be slightly more than the WE. You would probably be looking at a pre-sale price of about $199.00 + GST and approx. $25.00 shipping.

Now, that price is not set in stone obviously; it came out of a casual correspondence (I think we can trust it to be close, though, since we all know Randy). I'm just putting this out there to see if I can be the "anyone" going to him to assure 100 sales. Let's be honest here. $200 + tax/shipping for a full metal USP? Are you joking? There MUST be a demand for this. So, let's see if we can get enough responses here to get him to do it.

I personally would buy 2 for sure.

Edit: Mods, I wasn't sure where to put this thread so I put it in discussion and linked it through GBB buy and sell... if that's inappropriate, please adjust and sorry for the idiocy on my part. =P

[Drake]

this is the fullsize one, right? not the compact?

[WinnipegDragon]

I'm not verified or anything yet, but I'd jump in on one.

[Mafioso_Grande]

Yep, this is the full size version that we're talking about.

Compact is old news

[Kimbo]

I'd definately take one.

Alrite man i just saw some pics of the pistol that gun looks awesome + FULL metal. Who can past that deal. Im in for sure. 225 for a FMU USP im not going to pass it.

[captainafternoon]

Yes, i'm interested but i have a question.

Will this be done though you or DEA? and also does anyone have a link to a review for this gbb?

[stokes]

Like the WE purchases I believe it will be done through DEA. Mafioso is only asking if anyone is interested. So most likely we will do business with the supplier which is Randy and his DEA company.

[Mafioso_Grande]

This is being done through DEA. The only reason I've posted this in the first place is that I had the idea, and Randy told me what would be required from a business-sense standpoint.

All I get out of this is the chance to pick up a gun I really want at a reasonable price =) although considering it's just a matter of putting up a post on ASC it isn't exactly a whole lot of trouble for me.
