M1 garands in the classifieds

[rouge]

How long do you guys reckon it will be before the ics m1 garand starts popping up in the for sale section!!
im guessing that being its such an conveniant weapon for re-enactors most of the people that buy em are gonna be keeping hold of them! but i cant really find a lot of them for sale!! any sights that have them for sale are refusing to two tone them as apparently the paint doesnt stick to wood very well!!
would be nice to get one a little cheaper as well
wadda ya reckon?!
would be uber kwl if zero one started stocking them :D

In fact even this thought makes me believe that the only two tone guns available should be thundermauls in luminous pink.

Sorry to say it but for some reason ICS have made a snow camo M1 garand with a beta style box mag on it!!

Hopefully it stays a demo as a two tone box magged Garand is too ugly for words.

A 2tone garande is about as unwanted and pathetic as North Korea's nuclear arsenal.

That was confirmed on their Facebook to be an April fool's prank.

Re: M1 garands in the classifieds

i don't think a two tone is likely as most ww2 airsoft games wont permit them and that is the most obvious reason for owning one, i understand that for some of the younger players that is frustrating but it has taken quite a bit of persuading from the ww2 community to get main stream manufacturers to make them at all as we are a minority part of airsoft as it is.you may find in the next few months that another cheaper one is coming (g+g i think) and then a second hand market may begin.

Re: M1 garands in the classifieds

lol yeh it does seem very un-sightly!!! hopefully i should have a ukara soon!!
have to miss my next game!! which means that i will not be able to complete the 3 games in the required time
perhaps they will be understanding though!!!
i think the ics version is sounding a bit more promising than the g&g version though personally!!!

Re: M1 garands in the classifieds

3 games in not less than 2 months? wasn't aware there was an upper limit?

Re: M1 garands in the classifieds

There isn't hunter512, it's another case of someone not reading the 'not less than' line and missing the point, 5+ years after the bill, numerous spoonfeeding threads on the subject, WEAK :p

As for two toning a Garand, blasphemy!
