Hey I resent that, some chinese knockoff stuff is good quality, to list a few: Addidas, The North Front, Nikee, Swiss Geer.

Sure their not as good as their real counterparts, but you can't beat the prices vs quality of these items, (if i wanted to buy a $1500 shipley suit I could go to china to get a $50 shipley suit which isn't as good quality but at least I saved $1450 and I'm only using this suit like 10 times anyways).

Thanks Graylocks.
Well thats not bad of a price for the Canadian market... still quite pricey for a toy gun like plastic moulds, and a bunch of springs...

Cheers!

I had $40 to toss away, and honestly that's what I did.
It's useless except for a conversation (giggle) piece, or a perfect example of what not to buy.

And after a quick trip to the local 'Wholesale Sport' store, I noticed they had a bunch of those clear mini MP5's, a few clear MP5K springers AND 3 of the clearn M4A1's. One thing I didn't know until I looked at is that the M4 is that even though it's an electric soft-air rifle, it runs off a gravity-fed magazine (the bb's are held in the 'scope') and the battery (an ugly looking one like you'd see in an R/C car - basically a big square) is held in the magazine which is also clear.

They really look like total crap but for those of you who are into that sorta thing (I know there's a few of you on here who are), they appear to be a 'steal' of a deal. The MP5K is $55 and the M4 is $75. Go hard!
