Theres actually some stores you can go to you just don't look hard enough, Joe's Army Navy sells gas, bbs, some guns. Gibralter, while maybe overpriced sells the same stuff and a wider variety of TMs, theres also another army/navy surplus in waterford.

Another wonderful sale by the gents at 21st century. When I needed something fast, Bill was able to send to me FedEx at a very reasonable price. I received the item on a Saturday, which UPS in someplaces do not deliver to without charging another $ 10.
Double Thumbs Up! ;D

Moved from 21st - DuraCoat by soundbyte24 for forum rules violation...www.21stairsoft.com/ - 2nd bullet What do you guys think of this? They offered sales, repairs, training, events, and now painting? I know I stood up for 21st in the past, but now it's getting a little ridiculous... Not only because it's too many things to handle, but also because they "stole" the idea from MACA. As soon as Patten, Dragst, and I let slip that we were offering paint jobs, he signed up with DuraCoat to offer camouflage jobs. IMHO, I think they're expecting people to go to 21st because they are "licensed" and we're not... welcome to the business world, I suppose. Just looking for some opinions and comments on this new service. EDIT: I'm only joking about the stealing the idea from MACA thing... we (Patten, dragst, and I) don't actually give two shits.dragst - amen brother. if anyone is too lazy to paint their gun and wants it done, just pm me or soundbyte or patten BoredKender - agreed, as i was there when you gentlemen mentioned to bill about painting guns, and showing off the jobs you did. i'm also the one that showed the duracoat thing to patten and dragst earlier today. the moment i saw it, i thought he was ripping off you guys' idea colonelangus - My opinion of 21st has been pretty low for a while since i've read about a lot of the crap they pull. uberhampster - My opinion of 21st was high until me and my friends actually did buisness with them... Me - Lied to me about reinforced internals Friend 1 - stole m120 when he sent his gun in for repairs Friend 2 - randomly put a CA motor in a TM AK, when all that they were supposed to to was upgrade spring+bearings Friend 3 - He sent them a few guns to upgrade and they "misplaced" them for 3 days and they told him they were lost.

When I first met Bill, I didn't like him. Now I'm starting to get along good with him.
If you know airsoft guns, know your internals and know not to send in a gun thats got JUST metal bushings and an M120, he is an alright guy to deal with.
I can pretty much tell you any gun sent in to him thats almost stock with some bushings and a M120 springs going to end up getting a spring downgrade. He also doesn't like to install those M120's unless the buyer pays for shims, gears, piston etc. He has has too many guns fail and the owners blame him. The M120 seems to be the magic spring everyones wants. Everyone wants a 400 FPS gun it seems.
I've seen it happen myself recently. Kid wanted an M120 but didn't want to pay the extra for the gears, piston, etc. I said OK its your money, can't give you a warranty. I double and triple checked the shimming, checked all the other parts for wear then installed metal bushings and a Systema M120. Gun lasted about 3 weeks before it blew out the stock gears.

Oh, shit, lucky, we were just joking around about the MACA thing... sorry you didn't catch that.
Editing post...
But if I had been serious, you would have had a pretty nice flame post there...
