wtf airsoft gear on real rilfe's

[porfiriozg]

well that was unexpected, they worked just fine.

-magpul knock off back-up sights and they didn't melt
-d-boys rails (plastic and aluminum) without melting

what can i say. they both worked. i really need to rethink my postion on external airsoft parts

also airsoft guns are a lot heavier than you would think.

Hannu, funny thing Marketing.
They have this ability to make you think the crap is cream and then get you looking forward to eating it.

you REALLY should read more labels

99% chance your phone was made there
90ish percent chance your automotive electronics were made there
your TV was made there
your computer was made there
99% of the routers and servers that make up the internet are made there.


so if you are on an anti-China product kick...

Yeah tell me about it... I was thinking only gun parts here, but some time ago I went to Murdoch´s to buy new boots - huge selection, but just THREE pairs with label "Made in USA" Luckily, one of those were just what I was looking for. It was even tougher job to find a new belt - had to call a company and ask if it really says on the belt "Proudly made in USA" or something else.
It is really sad to see, how many "high quality" (for example) optics and firearms manufacturers make their parts in China

I have found that in my life, it gets cheaper to buy something else than "made in China" stuff. If you can find a part in some of my guns that is made in China, I will be happy to eat it - just to make sure there is one less "made in China" gun part.
And I just do not wanna support anymore communist governments.

No, my phone is not made in China nor my autos electronics or electro-hydraulic units. I do not have a TV and my computer have most parts made in USA and in Japan. Some parts do not have "made in" label on them though...

If you wanna know why I became like this, buy me a beer and I will tell you stories about communists

I hate to tell you this...
99% of all Printed circuit boards in computers are made in China. it might have been assembled in USA or Japan... but they make the PCBs in china
this includes the monitors, Car Stereos, Car Engine Control modules
Hard drives are almost entirely made in China now.
Western Digital Shut down a plant in the Philippines to move to China because it was cheaper if that tells you anything.

[spyder]

Ya, and don't forget the big difference between "made" and "assembled" in the USA.

I would believe maybe 85%, but not even near to 99%... Maybe that is true if you think only "made in US" cars, which is pretty sad anyway
Pretty big part of PCBs used in European/Japanese automotive parts are made in Europe.

Kinda sad but true, most PCBs, hard drives etc. are made in China I know my monitor says "made in China" cause it was only I could find here in the states... It is driving me nuts cause it is 4th one (3 broken ones) within 1.5 years

I do not know anything about US internet service providers etc companies though

Guys please do not think I am that dumb I can not tell difference between "made in" and "assembled in"

i dunno-ive had some airsoft rails on my olympic arms ar for a while with no problems,i think they were utg's

i think grips and furniture would be ok,but i wouldnt realy trust sights and optics that were airsoft

bingo. also, if you are significantly concerned with look then its true airsoft rails and furniture will often have the finish wear off faster, but if you are so leet to have ot buy top end everything then that shouldn't bother you anyway since youll be abusing the equipment while on your weekend ops
