Well, actually you won't, if cybergun has it's way. The plan is to get the firearms manufactures to liscence the likeness of thier respective products so that anyone selling or making something that looks like an M-16, MP-5, AUG, (ect.) who isn't a cybergun drone would be violating copyright laws. U.S. customs would sieze your order from Hong Kong.
Cybergun has already begun to try to squeeze out the little guys, as the link to Airsoft Ohio tells.

Do a little research. Think about who you want to support with your hard earned money.
  1.A foreign company that needs to bolster it's sales by having lawyers figure out a way to make you buy it's P.O.S. gun-
   or
  2.A foreign company that will sell you the top of the line, A number 1, gee-whiz, jaw dropper-
   or
  3.A local guy trying to do what he loves, supply a quality product and support his family off of the margin.

  I'll take door #3 Bob. Just my opinion.

Sorry pal, but I don't play airsoft to support someone elses family.  If I do it in the process of getting myself a kickass AEG at a good price, then everybody wins.  But theres no way I will sacrfice quality or my hard-earned money to feed some other guys wallet!  That's just not how I roll.

Feed a family here, feed a family in Hong Kong, it's all good. The point was that feeding a cybergun family will lead to fewer choices for all of us.

I really don't care how far cybergun tries to go
if they go so far that they buy out AE or CA then they own those products and they are still for sale, but if they try to destroy the airsoft industry in the US then hell know what i would do to them.  Besides if something like does happen then obviously there would be class acts against cybergun so they would not have any advantage against owning the whole US airsoft industry

New Airsoft Store
« Reply #13 on: April 09, 2004, 12:44:36 AM »
I am not sure if anyone has heard of this yet, or if it has been posted elseware but within the last week a new airsoft store has opened in Scottsdale.  It is called Soft Air, or something of that sort.  I heard about it before and after a bit of driving found it less than a mile from my home.  The intersections are N. 70th Street and E Shea Blvd.  You should see it on the SW corner, in a small shopping center.  I have no idea on prices yet since I found it when it had closed for the evenin.  Headin out early tommarow to check it out though.
