HK416 @ UnCompany

I really wish I had the money now

Too bad for all the people on WGC's 2nd batch list.

The same thing happened with my VFC MK43, I had to wait about 1-2 weeks more just because I had to pre-order it from WGC instead of waiting for UNCompany.

Anyways, I'm getting this as my christmas present (I'll just spend all my gift money on this and get everyone I was planning on buying gifts too crappy gifts )

Now THATS a REAL retailer.....wake me up when you have one to sell. NO PREORDERS!

We just ordered two from UNcompany.

We will NEVER do a preorder again from WGC.

So will the ones avaliable in the US have HK trademarks or VFC?

VFC.

[Sniperman15]

Damn! , that would be a proud piece to have with H&K trademarks.

This is interesting tho:

From planet airsoft

New VFC H&K 416 LE Carbine AEG
Vega Force Company (VFC) will be releasing a full metal airsoft version of the H&K 416 Carbine in November and Airsplat will be the first ones in the USA to have them available. The H&K 416 is H&K's version of the AR-15 and it a highly praised rifle in the real steel community, especially known for its incredible reliability, accuracy and quality. The VFC H&K 416 carbine will have full H&K markings aswell as a full metal reciever, integrated rail interface unit and free floating one piece outer barrel.

Bummer

Edit: Do you guys think that if tape is used by UNco, what is the likelyhood it would be seized, and would having them break the gun down make a difference?

Its also at airsoft-war4.com

[pingpong]

just a heads up.

VFC only made 500 of those DX models..

[dlam]

in hongkong, the trademarks are HK...

[Death By Cadbury]

Theyre talking about the ones that will be available for sale WITHIN the US.

If you order from overseas, you will get HK trademarks.

edit: as long as you have them covered by putty

are you kidding me? you should WANT unco to put putty on your gun, putty comes off EASY with ur fingernails. plus the body is metal, so even better.

[pingpong]

i bought the US model.

its going to have "VFC" trade marks that say like "VFC416" =[

also no trade mark on the stock.. <sigh> o well

i want my gun so bad =[ i feel naked without a gun

Putty always leaves traces behind in the engraving - you cant get it all out, look at any recent photo of a MARUI 1911A! that has been "de-puttied". Looks awful.

Tape also leaves behing a square "ghost mark" around the trades that is there forever on these metal bodies.

We ordered our HK's (as always) with NO tape and NO putty - trades 100% intact.

I have never had a piece seized. UNcompany will send it to you like this, but if its is seized, you are on your own.

A risk soooo worth taking on a piece like this......to own this gun with NO HK trades (VFC trades), or wrecked trades is 100% pointless.

It has to have the HK trades - just my humble opinion.

Why would putty leave marks,

what if i used paintthinner type remover to take it off?

Sucks for you man. Just get a HK416 body from Unco. There's nothing you can do about the stock though.
