rdmaul: that is a sic setup.
im in for over 15k. just guns and gear. not counting bbs, trips, gas, and my tool boxes and cabnets for tools and parts.
cant wait till i get to start buying again. its time to get some of my guns back up to their former performance level. and there are some guns out there that i still need to pick up for my collection.
and for sure stuff is a hell of a lot cheeper nowa days. my $1,200 p90 could be done for probly around $5-600 with the clone parts, but when i bought mine there was only 1 company making them. and first factory was the only company with the nitro rail and box mag setup, thoose 2 pieces cost me more then the gun did. if you found a used ca or tm for 200 its was considered a realy good deal.
i only have 1 gun newer than 2007 and its a ca g3sd. i dont have any echo, jg, dboy, or any of the new acm stuff. thats one of the reasons the my cost is so high. when i was buying alot, acm stuff was concidered dirt and not to be touched. some still concider it so, but im gonna see what i can do with it.
