Just a quick one,
What are a few good sites(better yet, stores in SE mich.) that sell, and can give a bit of advice on different models/comparisons? and I guess it wouldn't hurt if they had good prices too.
I've seen the side list on MiA site... but would like an informed opinion on this. Thanks in advance.
Rendering all day gives me a whole lotta time to blow.

I haven't really found any good retailers in SE michigan, just a couple paintball stores that sell airsoft too. Susan in Gibralter at the Mt. Clemens Gib I believe I heard was good, my friends go there. More are about 3-4 hours drive toward the mid of michigan by kalamazoo, where 21st century airsoft is (http://www.21stcenturyairsoft.com) or in Illinois theres paintball-x (http://www.paintball-x.com).

Im gonna say this before 'stapo has the chance. Consider Black Mesa Airsoft as well www.blackmesaairsoft.comMany people question 21CA's business practices and sales tactics. They are known for saying that Mauri gears are plastic, or made from low grade metals, such as "Pot Metal" I myself have not done business with them, but I have heard enough bad things from people I trust to the point where I will take my business elsewhere |

Poweredge is fast and efficent consistly.
I would recommend them.
As for the michigan area BMA and 21 century airsoft are the only "real" ones located in michigan.

If you want someone outside the U.S. use www.WGCshop.com, Damo and I just put in an order for over 500 dollars, (My third time with WGC) Twice they have shipped it to me in 3 days and I'm hoping on Wednesday I can say they've done that 3 times. They have one of the largest selections I've seen (along with Dentrinity.com and Uncompany.com. I've done over 1,000 dollars in business with them and haven't been disappointed yet. |

www.combatdepot.com has been in the business longer than any of the other retailers listed above (though they were under a different name for a number of years. They changed from airsofttoys because customs was flagging packages headed to them) that are based in the US (WGCshop, Den, and UNCompany have all been around longer, but they're all in Hong Kong). In my experience, they are by far the most reliable retailer in the country. Francois, the owner, isn't just a business man, he's a hobbyist with more years of experience than anybody on this forum or MiA. He knows his stuff. Combat Depot is my first stop for anything that I don't need to get from overseas. Also, read my first post on the fourth page of the "New Here" thread in this section, linked here

www.combatdepot.com www.airsoftarms.com I recommend both, both are owned and operated by players in Ohio. I can't really vouch too much for Franc at Combatdepot, as I'm only really an aquaintance. However, I am an avid buyer of all airsoftarms.com goods, and am friends with several of the employee's, along with the owner. If you have any questions, they're quick to answer, and it's always an email written by a person. Items shipped from AA normally show up next day for michigan, even if you use standard ground. Jack.
