I went to youngs and bought a Hi-tec Ht-93R. Its a gun Redwolf sells for 89.00 And even with 60.00 S&H the gun would have been cheeper than what I paid. 165.00 is what he sold it to me for. Guess I should quit doing the spure of the moment shopping... Any how hes got metal bodied 1:1 scale MP5's there for 300.00 plus and Redwolf (who he buys from) sells the same MP5-SD6 for 194.00, So I dont like the fact he's making close to 100.00 bucks off me, AND I got a tactical thigh holster for 20.00 and he paid 7.99. Just a heads up. And the guy that sold the stuff to me was kinda upity. the only reason I bought it is because I couldent make a drive, and didnt research cheeper places to get that gun. But I know better now.

Well he's redeamed himself. I went down there today and he gave me a deal on a KJW-M92F full metal GBB,and a tactical pants and shirt,and he didnt charge me tax on anything ta' boot. So he's bumped himsef up again to some one Ill buy from again. And I noticed he's got better prices on his BDU's and other clothing than Berts Surplus on Ann & monroe. But Berts' still has a ton of black hawk stuff. Or atleast he says he's got some new stuff comming in.

Note: Covering overhead and making a profit is not an evil, bad thing for a retailer to do. Just about every retailer that stocks ICS/CA MP5's prices them over 300 bucks.
Where is this place, anyways?
Edit...changed 500 to 300, like it shoulda been. Eye kan tyep.

Is this the Youngs in Grand Rapids or Kalamazoo. I have been to both and have had excelent service. They unlike redwolf are not in the airsoft business. They have tons of gear at decent prices. I would highly recomend these stores for all of your guilty gear pleasures.

Yeah Youngs isnt to be totaly condemed. I do take into account that they, like all buisness', have to turn a profit to survive. I guess they are fairly decent guys. And they (the one in grand rapids just south of 28th st. on division) Are really good at exsplaining stuff to a NOOB such as myself. And they most defanintly have the gear thats hard to find at decent prices most other places. As I said Ill continue to do buisness with them. Ill just make sure to research every place to make sure I get good (fair is good enough) deals.
