Allot of people have asked me to bu them here locally and ship them but if you do it that way you're looking at $300+

Also I checked into it and ALL guns shipped to Canada by Aftermath will be clear. Even states so on their website.

If anyone here is going to charge insanely extra to just go to Canadian Tire I say fcuk you you're no retailer yet you're trying to make money especially when the situation for airsoft is so bad, not to mention the guns are clear ... $300? Let's see $179.99 + Tax this is Alberta so it's like what 7% or 8% only? Than regular shipping with insurance at most will be $15-20 if you just wrap it in brown paper or any kind of paper, that's at most $220 MAX. Heck in that case you might as well get an AK off the Echo order that just came in. Retailers have the right to charge more, the ones now especially who are doing it PROPERLY. I'm still waiting for the MacLeod location to re-stock and I'm having someone else here send one over.

Not going to argue on this one.

aZn_Trixta,
Although technically youre correct, it's up to him what to charge, who are you to tell him to fuck himself?

Either way, these are damn expensive, Buyairsoft got JG/Cyma AKs without the clear crap, for $275, even $180-$200 for a clear one is abit much retail, don't you think?

Mainly what I meant was that even though many people have ASKED me to buy them here and ship them out, I'm not going to and was never going to.

CT even rips off on CCC you can get the auto M4 for like 169.99 at CT and also get it at Airgunsource for like 69.99...

If you don't like the price then don't buy it. Plain and simple.

Manaconda July 3rd, 2007 20:35

while it sounds fine and dandy it could just be that after a few months they fall apart and you'll have wasted 250-300 and could have put that to a good used one from the boards. I'll wait till people have had them for a while before I'd buy one.

On August 5th I'm taking it to the local milsim and putting it through a serious workout to test it's limits!

Andres July 20th, 2007 00:32

Heh, my friend got the M4 one at the top of the Aftermath site, didn't seem too bad for a "new" company.

All the internal look pretty nice and nicely shims.

A lot of internals are a lot better than Jing gong AEG.

The parts that are the worst are the plastic handguard, stock and grip. They look like real cheal plastic. We did change those by TM and everything was fine.

The body and receiver are plastic. they are fine, but have have Ugly Kraken aftermath 6mm airsoft rifle trademarks.

the plastic are not the exact length, so you have to shims them, to be tight.

The one we got from colt farmer was shooting 300 FPS with 0.20. Very steady.

I have reports that a local hardware store can order parts and aftermath kraken's in pretty soon as they are just waiting for a price list. A local hunting store in Williams Lake sells the Krakens $10 cheaper than in Quesnel as well.

So if the hardware store can order things in I will be taking orders for guns/parts such as the metal Kraken bodies!
