Question on Tokyo Mauri

Jul 12, 2005 5:48pm
On www.tokyohobby.net they have a whole bunch of guns like the Tokyo Marui M4A1 Carbine Automatic Electric Gun for only like $180, do you think that is that gun and is it good?

I bet they rip you a new one on shipping then. :lol:

That's the gun, and that's how much they want for it, but they are in Japan. You would have to pay shipping.

just to let you know i've heard not so happy stories from tokyohobby.net

Those are the ones i use. Redwolf ships fast as long as the parts are in stock. I have always gotten my stuff from them in three days. Unless you order a custom gun, then it takes longer.

I personally am nott a fan of the M4 by Marui or ICS because of the way the gearbox is setup. It not a really good starter AEG as it tends to get dirty really fast. The squarish hole on the gearbox has been known to collect nasty things inside it like pebbles, sticks, etc. If you like to get down and dirty..a stock TM M4 isn't tha great. Building your own is always an option. If you are new to the sport. I would recommend looking at used AEGs and finding something at a decent price. Beware of tokyo hobby. As others have said not only do you get slain on shipping, but Tokyo Hobby has completely nonexistent customer service and has had a bad history of exportation to the states. Buy from a local retailer if possible and ask as many questions as you can before you buy. That's the most sound advice I can give you. I'm always happy to discuss these types of things with people.

If you cant drive(like me) I suggest WGC, I order from them biweekly and they have a good system setup, I have never had an order lost or stolen, but I have had a Gearbox sized because I didnt pay the proper duties on it,
