Title: Local Vendor: Jungle Toy
Post by: AZdirtRiDeR on April 02, 2007, 05:08:59 AM
We need a listing of Local Vendors!!

My 3 sons and I went to Jungle Toy at
3525 W. Northern Ave
602-544-3538

Excellent service, sorry, can't remember the guy's name, but very helpful.

All around I'd rate the IN-STORE experience a 10 out of 10. I asked 100 questions and spent an hour getting all my questions answered!!

We walked out with at TM-Compatible and are completely satisfied that our FIRST trip there WON'T BE OUR LAST.

Thanks!!

The only other one to consider is Arizona Paintball Depot.  They have a massive selection both midrange and highend guns and lots of accessories.

I guess you could also consider Softair Depot, assuming you like being ripped off.

I'm glad you had a good experience with JT, but I prefer APD and SAD. It seems that 85% of the time when I call JT and ask for a flatzenjambler or a gewjaw they say, "I'm all out of those now, I'm expecting more in in 2-3 weeks." APD maintains a much larger in-store inventory, and are quite happy to get parts UPS'ed to them... 3 day ground service. SAD seems to be right in between the two as far as inventory goes.

If you need a repair done.... call all the stores. Most of them have a backlist on repairs, but you might be able to get yours worked in quickly.

BTW, JT is going under new management, getting a new name, going to carrying ECHO1 and CA soon(2 or so). I like JT though. So-so guns, but yea.

What, you can't read?  He is obviously referring to the after hours JT past time of burning AEGs.

I believe that Gearbox is the old Tempe JT.  I don't know if anything happened to the old Phoenix JT.

Another thing i really want to shoot this thing with out pissing off some neighbors are their any shooting ranges, In the same area?

Thanks

All the Jungletoy's in AZ closed some time ago.  You might want to bring to Gearbox Airsoft.  They do repair work.

My mistake, I misunderstood.  The only other local Airsoft store I know of is Arizona Paintball Depot: http://www.arizonapaintballdepot.com (http://www.arizonapaintballdepot.com)  I'm not sure what type of stuff you are looking for, but there's a lot of things you can pretty much only find online.

I really don't know how a range would react to you and your airsoft gun.

You cant shoot your gat in your house?

Go out to the desert (BLM land, not private property or national forrest) make sure you have a backstop and nobody around, and blast away.

There are plenty of spots up highway 87.

They will for sure get alot more Airsof stuff. I asked them why they have been having less of a selection of airsoft and they said that the chines new years screws with the factories so it slows down shipments. something like that.

No, we (Gearbox Airsoft) does not have a website as of yet. We prefer to deal face to face at the moment, but I'm sure we'll set one up sooner or later.

I was told there was a PB place opening up on Waddell and Litchfield near the Theater. I haven't checked yet but that would be the place to ask to carry it.

Despite having a place that can *possibly* provide airsoft parts and whatnot for us Surprise dwellers, I'll still give 99% of my business to Gearbox. There is no chance in hell that the people opening that paintball store are as knowledgable as Gearbox "personel".

Hello everybody, another newbie here.  I was totally unaware of the advancements in airsoft over the past several years until my son wanted a new airsoft gun a few weeks ago.  When he showed me the gun online and I saw that it was $150 I thought he was crazy.  But my boss (wife) told me to get it for him so, of course, I did.  When the gun arrived (Echo 1 M4 with collapsible stock) I was shocked at the build quality of the thing.  I then began my normal extensive anal-retentive research and found out that this was only a mid-level gun.  Needless to say, I'm hooked.

Anyway, all that leading up to me finding out about Arizona Paintball Depot.  Went over there last week and, contrary to earlier posts, they had quite a selection.  Mostly Classic Army but they had several Echo 1's as well.  I had already made up my mind that I wanted an Echo 1 and I wanted the Commando M4.  They didn't have the Commando but they had the Stag Arms model M4 so I got it.  $145, as cheap or cheaper than online.  Haven't been in a "battle" yet but am anxious to give it run.

I guess the point of my rambling is that as of last week, AZ Paintball Depot was pretty well stocked.

Another newb here, but with Christmas right around the corner I thought this thread could use an update.

I used to go to Jungle Toy at 35th Ave and Northern behind Jack In The Box. Is it still there?
I used to go to Jungle Toy at Scottsdale and Shea buried way back in the shopping center on the southeast corner. Is it still there?
I used to go to Jungle Toy on Southern in Tempe. It became Gearbox, I've never been there. Is it still there?
I used to go to Jungle Toy inside the Indoor Park and Swap at I17 and Bethany. I doubt it's still there. Is it?
I went to some airsoft store at about 70th St and Shea, but I didn't buy anything. Is it still there? What was it called?

I haven't bought anything for airsoft in 3 years or so, but my 13 year old wants one for Christmas. How are the entry level guns hold ing up these days? 3 years ago, it wasn't real long.

Dude, seriously. Knock it off, quite a of your responses have been in old dead threads, and adding one line of useless text doesn't help, FYI, no one really cares about the post count, its your field rep, and contents of your post that count, just a simple heads up bro, I know I, if not many others on this forum are sick of seeing old threads pop up with nothing but a stupid one- liner tagged on.

No, you were being an idiot, and you continue to be an idiot throughout the entirety of your posts, instead of searching for other shops, which would have taken about 30 sec. you one line post this BS on a dead thread. I then proceeded to tell you to knock it off, mainly because 50% of your posts are post count raising garbage, and you know it. Heres my Tip. Grow Up. It will help you very much in the long run

Seriously?  Posting on a year old thread then trying to defend it for other than what it is?  If you made a mistake and didn't look at the date, which I doubt is possible, then just admit it and move on.  Listen to Exarach and grow up or move on to a forum that doesn't mind that kind of crap.

Don't try to defend your idiotic actions with an even stupider excuse.
