I'm interested in their M14 A5 kit and was wondering if anyone has had the pleasure of doing business with these guys.

Their gear is injection-moulded plastic crap. They won't even make cheap airsoft gear like that. Stay the hell away.

Got their M41a kit for a VM I had (It's in the EMR museum now)...basic vacuumed formed plastic on most of the kits....The shipping and communication was excellent though,I'd imagine the wood based kits are decent

my friend got a m60 kit from them, and it was really rather pointless, it barely looked like the m60 and he need to paint it and fit it and everything, and he paid i think like around $80-$100 for it. They look good over the internet, but i don't believe that it is as durable as they make it out to be seen. I figure if it isn't metal or wood, i don't go for it.

Yep, that was me...short of a scale reference its totally worthless, it is vacufomed directly from real M60 parts (according to them). the details are very light, and it dosn't look like its injection molded, its vacuformed...I've vacuformed enough custom model parts and in the end this M60 was a 1:1 scale horribly detailed model...don't waste your money. As for their business practices though, the shipping was fast and there were no problems there.

If you would like I'll post pics.
