$0 1911? Real or Too good to be true?

knightoice · April 29th, 2009, 12:17

Also, if I acquired one, it would be illegal tp spray paint it right?

Clearsoft 1911 for $0

I'm planning on phoning them today, see if it's either a mislabeled price or that it's a scam with a dead end phone number. Anyone have any experience with this or any ideas or opinions? Thanks in advanced

Also, I think that this topic is ok as long as I don't ask for/make reviews for clearsoft. Correct me if I'm wrong.

lol who cares, it's probably worth nothing anyway. springer 1911.

Sometimes companies have $0.00 on their site to represent SOLD OUT or NOT IN STOCK

Its not uncommon

It'd be illegal to paint it, although it's one of them regulatory offences that no one ever seem to enforced unless it's in conjunction with a more serious offence.

Are you actually intending to field that thing, or is it just a holster filler?

Not for the field, more for fun and target practice with this and move up when it brakes

I might spray paint it later

Anyways, thanks for the answers people!

If you're going to spend $0, get this one. Full metal for the same price.

Yeh I called them
I'm really glad I will be getting a clear and a black metal one now
I was talking to a guy named "Mitch" working there and he cleared a lot of it for me. Turns out their website just isn't exactly updated on a day to day basis

They're going to be getting an order in about a week and a half (argh more waiting) but they will be getting some Black 1911s. They are in Alberta so no stupid customs messing and seizing my order =]

Thanks again people!

surebet · April 29th, 2009, 21:01

So how much will you be paying?

ZIG · April 29th, 2009, 21:11

Yea so is it really 0$? because that would be boss

surebet · April 29th, 2009, 21:13

... and impossible...

Cuddles · April 29th, 2009, 21:14

they've got some $0 aegs too lol

ShelledPants · April 29th, 2009, 21:15

Notice the huge ON ORDER sign for that gun.

knightoice · April 29th, 2009, 22:04

The two springers I'm getting are around 15-30$ each.
About the 0$ thing
Mitch told me to ask the local retailer about that
Although, if you argued about it with the guy and talked about how disappointed you were and wanted to buy one from them, you could probably talk your way into a discount.

surebet · April 29th, 2009, 23:25

Dude, no one in their right minds will take seriously a grief about not selling guns for 0$.

Ashton · April 30th, 2009, 03:58

Maybe there's some sort of government tax incentive for giving away airsoft guns. I highly doubt it, though.

Though, I do think it's poor policy to list the prices as $0.00 instead of out-of-stock, seeing as you might want to know the real price for reference.
