Well my pops and I just ordered up 2 StG44's and some extra mags. Even if they cut and run it's not to bad of a cash hit. Besides that it'll give me a quality idicator to see if it's worthwhile to pick up a MG.... or two.... or three.
|
*drools* I hope this is legit.

You now have advice from someone in the legal practice who is also part of the airsoft community telling you it would be wise to sell to 18+. If I were you I would stop saying you will "do your best" and figure out a way to actually make your buisness 18+ if you want to stay in buisness for long and if you want the support of the airsoft community. |

I'd be very interested in an airsoft M1 Garand... We'll have to see how Ancorp makes out.

G'day,
A quick thought from a newb who can't seem to find a way to get face to face with an age verifier: Why not just take credit card orders only? Can't get plastic in Canada unless you're 18+. I'm sure most of you who are verified and enjoying all the benefits thereof probably don't have or want credit but some of us old bastids have more credit than time to meet a verifier. (Yes, I know it's off topic but this sub topic's been brought up here so...) |

Hey nice find Fader;)
|
We buy our shells from Cushman. He is located in Michigan so its quite close to here.
|
Im fairly sure you can get a credit card when your 16. You just need your parents to co sign for it.

Indeed, awesome find. I hope my Thompson looks bette then that crap!

Prepaid mastercard, only have to be 16 to get one...not sure if they act the same way as regular credit cards, but just another reason to keep the Age Verification system. EDIT: "You can pay with plastic everywhere MasterCard® is accepted." |
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEE I have no idea what to beleive anymore DX

fake website is fake.

I guess we'll just have to wait and see if Ancorp gets his model

This is stinking of a scam.. the pictures on their website are googled, The pictres they provided as "Proof" are googled... Their finished products are WAY too high detail to be resin casts... Just make sure you have a cell handy when you don't receive what you payed for. |
Lets just all stop the speculation and wait until ancorp gets his stuff...
Damn it people give those guys a chance... stop being such pains in the asses. |
amen to that stokes
I also ordered a gun from these guys, no judgements until i receive it |
Quote:
-They've used images from the internet as examples on their web-page -They used images from the internet when caught with the web page ones -Their "Finished products" were... Laughably realistic for a mold... :) I'm gonna wait to see how this one turns out. |

Take a picture of one of your high detail complete models next to a piece of paper that says "THIS IS REAL ASC, with today's date" and with a drinking glass (Just so you can't photoshop the peice of paper in.. Glass is hard to photo shop into things :) ) If you do that, I'll PM you an apology :) |
I will do that when I get the materials this week. And when I was talking about us not taking the images, I was talking about the ones from Cushman. If you read his site, its no coincidence that his unbuilt models are exactly what I have previously described many times about what the external of the guns are made of.

Instead of making them waste their time by trying to defend themselves here, why not let them finish some products and ship it out to those who ordered? A review by a customer with an actual product in their hands is worth more than a picture of a gun with a glass of water. I certainly believe that the introduction of this company and the products they have to offer could have been done differently, particularly in regards to the aforementioned pictures and a better explaination of their products (ie. plastic shells ordered from Cushman). However, I'm still optimistic about the arrival of a larger variety of WW2 airsoft guns for a decent price. |
They shouldn't waste their time on photos of that sort, they're just starting up their website and we should wait for a review of their product(s) before asking them to post high quality photos on their website.
However, for those who don't want to wait for a review, an up to date image of the finished product (or even the unfinished product) would help them in deciding whether they should choose to purchase the product or not. Low-quality pictures, taken by someone other than yourself, but used on your website is understandable; but not all may share this understanding. Guns that are being sold for $400-500 less than stock AEG's, and $700+ less than their WWII airsoft counter-parts leaves consumers with only your word to trust. They're even half the price of some Chinese made AEG's, so it should be understandable that there is some frustration on how the company was introduced to ASC. Still though, patience is needed by all on this forum if this company is to make it off the ground. My views have changed overnight, and I'm anxious to hear from ancorp about his purchase. |
Yay, I'm popular. Call me Alex.
Seriously though, I am not worried about this at all. I suggest everyone here thats trying to figure out whether this is a "scam" or not, stops talking and waits for results instead of speculating. Starting a business is hard, stop bitching. I know there have been scams here in the past, but just relax for now, I will keep you guys updated throughout. So far, they have excellent communication, reasonable responses to my "suspicious" question, and are giving me an awesome deal. The only problem is the pictures posted earlier, and the fact that their photos of their finished models look more real then anything I've seen yet. There is no reason why they can't in fact do such a good job of making models. Adam told me they do a lot more finishing work then Cushman. Thus, I'm not worried. If I don't get my Thompson, at least this debate will be over. Some of you guys are really giving them a hard time. Back off, there have not been any transactions yet. Cheers, Alex |

Like I said before if they are legit, be legit 100%. Keep it 18+. Otherwise as far as I care your not legit. You placing replicas in the hands of children otherwise, and causing the sport more problems then it needs.
They dont need to sell over the internet, they live in the largest market possible in Canada as it is. No reason they cant be happy with local in person sales. |
No reason huh Bloodsport? I'm a damn good reason, don't don't punish the masses for the few.
|
Rainer I feel for you. 16yr olds and younger can responsibly have and use rifles, but not toy pellet guns. Lol. Liberals and their thinking, if it can be called that. Thank God they're out of gov't at least!
|
the riberar train of thought:
.... what? they store it a rong time ago to fund the sponsorship scandar. |
I agree they should allow local pick-ups, not only could we see all thier product (some new arrivals and what not, that haven't posted yet) and it would reduce thier shipping costs, either making them more profit, or allowing them to lower prices even more...

Aswell. I'm not sure why you wouldn't want to use the age verification system. It helps protect your business and our sport. |

007 only asks how old you are, and I dont think they do anything other than that. dunno about A&A though.

Quote:

A&A has really stepped up their age verification process, and as most players who have been around long enough updated their website about a year ago with their own age restrictions for buying. Good to hear he's taking it beyond just AEG purchases.

thanks.

I agree that we need to be more strict with the purchase of airsoft weapons. We don't want a few children to screw it up for the rest of us.. If we want kids to get into airsoft (they're mature enough, they understand how to control weapons, etc.) i believe that we should get them some clearsoft.. i know, horrid words.. but pick them up a little pistol and make them show you that they understand how to use the weapon properly, that they shouldn't take it into public, etc.. we can't push kids that are around 16 away from our sport, because they are going to be the future of it.. they help to decide if the sport will continue or not.. i'm hoping they will let it continue..
as for these ww2 weapons.. i'm still on the fence.. i'm not 100% sure the quality.. but i can't wait to hear about them when Alex picks his up.. be sure to keep us posted on the progress.. |

I can't seem to access the site anymore, anyone else having trouble?

i can get in, but its currently "under construction"

We are trying to get the first run of orders out, stopped the website so that we don't take any new orders just yet. At least not until the first run has been settled.

well lets see they are still posting here thats a good sign
also if they were scamming they would keep the site open until it was a proven scam to get the most out of it, everyones greedy |
I email my customers with their questions answered, not reply to them on this board. As the site says, "All current orders are in progress".

Although you did reply to your customer via email as the post after your shows, its kinda fishy when they have to post here in the public and state that they have not heard from you for several weeks. If they have taken the question public, no reason the response cant be as well. |
Small update: Cushman will finally be shipping the parts over, not Adam's fault for the delay as I see it.
|
all right a nice copy and past from my email from him there were quite a few others I got from him concerning updates on my product never had to bother him
Hello, Your materials have been shipped to me so you can expect your 2 mp44's and 3 clips to ship out shortly (1-2 weeks). If you have any questions, dont hesitate to contact me. Thanks, Adam |
Nice!
Please write a review on the gun when u receive it :) |
Hey Rainer, did you order the AEG or the model?
I'll be posting lots of hi-res pics of my Thompson once it arrives. |
Why oh why would i order a model? I ordered 2 AEG mp44's. for the price they ask for you cant go wrong, even if all it does is get used as a club. but here's hoping for a good lookin one

did anyone actually get anything yet

and these guys are in canada they told us |
Quote:
I ordered one. These guys get their parts from Cushman Custom Creations in the US. Cushman finally shipped out the parts 4 days ago. |
It looks like the stuff wont get to me until Tuesday because of the holiday. It should have been here Friday because it was sitting in the Mississauga sortation plant all day long and didn't go anywhere else. Also we added a small line of uniforms. We got a really good deal on them and I have personally ordered a few things and they are excellent quality. Alot of our guns are "Coming Soon" now because we are making them all have metal gearboxes and better overall internals. They will be back soon. We also added a few more models to the product line. The website is back open.
Thanks, Adam |

Hopefully they are just a bit behind on their payments due to being busy with their current shipment/orders.
Hopefully. I haven't heard from Adam since the parts arrived... |
