tosuzu Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 The sorry tale about a m249 star: And some videos of the event! The fixing http://www.vimeo.com/2025622 The killing http://www.vimeo.com/2014744 I was thinking about buying one of these STAR M249 before but this picture gave me a 1000 reasons why not to get one :| Maybe their mag are alright thought.

Xsjado Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 I've seen that happen with a couple of different guns (steel bodied AK was funniest though, not to the owner ) so I wouldn't hold it against Star. I always felt Star guns felt nice to hold but people were always having problems with the internals. Don't really know too many Star users though so its not exactly a large sample size.

uscmCorps Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Whoa... those prices are at liquidation of stock prices. And the fact that WGCShop is doing it too... makes you think that STAR was discontinuing those products or going out of business... which I think we can all agree isn't likely. What the heck is going on? Link to post Share on other sites
Xsjado Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Man I wish I was UKARA registered or had kept at least minimal evidence of my skirmishing activities so I could buy that SL9. Wanted one for a long time. That was meant to be an edit. Link to post Share on other sites

chas Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Someone should ask EHA to offer regular airmail for guns, couse paying 100$ for express shipping really kills the awesome discount. Link to post Share on other sites

Xsjado Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Steel bodied AK O.O ? What he do, get hit on the freeway? Tripped over a small ledge onto some rocks. The gun probably saved his life and they roped off the offending scenery. Link to post Share on other sites
Billy Bob the Sniper Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 how long is this going to last? as i am going to try and get some money.... Oh wait.. Christmas humm.... Link to post Share on other sites
Isamu Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Maybe "Marui M4 factor" is behind the mistery... but its quite strange this sudden price drop... something is going to happen thats for sure. Anyway If star had an AUG or AK105 at those prices, I would get one right now, but my marketing training and spider sense help me to withstand the temptations... taht and the fact Im completly broke (financally talking, of course) XD Link to post Share on other sites
