Airsoft Elite is only sold by American companies and only one HK company that I know of. I am not "out of the loop" I regularly check HK and Japan websites (and this one of course).
I love my MP5, but then again I have a metal body and cocking tube. (Metal parts fit together very well)

I have a ICS V 1 MP5-A5 its pretty good. Not the best but gets the job done. The mags are horrible! In other news Eddie is checking on my XM right now and he's going to try and negotiate with TNT and customs about my gun. Cant wait!

Hmm.....my ICS is version 1.2. It's not even debatable whether it's better than TM guns. It's just plain more accurate and longer-ranging than the 3 other TM guns I shot it against. I really wish I could shoot it next to the older version 1 guns, because I've never really read a good review for an AE gun. On a side note, my AE hi-cap mags (they don't make lowcap) are just plain awesome. Never misfed. Another different thing that I've noticed in reviews.

I’m back. Okay I am not going to even try to read up on everything, but I did skim some.
Newman I highly doubt your Mp5 has great range then my M4, I’m willing to put money on that, reguardless of the upgreaded spring. Just because you did quite well at the skrimish doesnt mean your gun is better, we never set up targets and had chooting contest, nor did we check fps, nor range, nothing, we shot at each other for a few hours. Theres a little more that goes into testing a gun then that. If anythign it showed that either you were lucky or your better at skrimishing.
Okay new update, sense I had to take off these pasts few days from work they altered my schedule at work. I have to move the event to Sunday the 9th. That’s just one more day, hope you guys can cope with that, if not sorry but there isn’t anyway around it.
Same time and same layout just on Sunday.
Also, if you need to contact me about getting a ride, details on the event, and what not email me! Armalite82@aol.com. The new Everquest expansion comes out tomorrow and I will most likely be glued to it for weeks to come and might find it hard to get to the board every night.
With that I am going to bed, long flight and I have to get to Best Buy in Livonia early so they don’t run out of my game and then go to work! Nights!

Sunday? Guess I'll have to tape Walking with Prehistoric Beasts on the Discovery Channel. Yes, I'm serious; don't make fun of me. Welcome back, Viking.

Viking is the list filled up? Because if my XM comes I will be out in your area due to a hockey tournament. If we do not win our game on Saturday then I will have sunday all to myself and maybe I can talk to my parents about letting me play. Minky: Eddie is mine! Actually it was a typo but... meh. Ballista that show is great. I like the ones with the underwater animals and how they eat eachother.

The MP5 I used was a 1.2. The hicaps were so bad the guy had to rent some TM mags from Airsoft Toys so he could even play with the gun. Newman, its possible you got extremely lucky with your gun, and found a diamond in a bag coal, but this certainly is NOT the norm. There is a reason why you have read so many negative reviews.

No disrespect, Viking, but we did shoot our guns side by side. You were using .20 bbs, I was using my AE .25s, and when I shot your gun, it didn't go as far as mine. Remember that this was before your battery died (obviously), so a low charge could've definitely been a factor. A picture to refresh your memory:

Woohoo! Welcome back Viking. You know with all that Everquest playing you do we're going to have to add another mission to your Operation: Ironclads day of glory. I call it... Operation: Neverquest. Gentlemen, we shall infiltrate Vikings tactical basement at 1600hrs. Retraw will cover the back stairway while Newman and I will make our way into the sleeping chamber and take out the Everquest CD. We shall tie it to the wall, blindfold it, give it a cigar and let it have a few swift full auto burts...thus ending its evil existence. Celebration dance is optional. Can't wait for Sunday! *salute* Once again though due to the change in date, who will be able to make it?

I'm glad to have Viking back too , contrary to what you might think since I was kinda mad when I posted that last thing. ;D I can make it, but when will it start? My parents actually don't mind taking me this Sunday if we meet at 9:00...could we do that? That would make it really easier for me to play (or play at all). Thanks dudes.
