Of course you still have to get it through customs!

Ah, common sense at last!

I'm hoping, as with velocity declarations, that self-declaration will be the accepted way forward....

Has anyone bought a gun from RSOV yet? I'm putting an order in this week for an M14 and an MP40 (unless I get a swap offer for the suits I'm selling).

Anyone got stuff shipped in yet?

when ordering from rsov do 1 gun a month because ur ordering 2 u may get hit by customs a big lot.i was speaking to a guy from hm customs and he said that the way the customs r doing it now is seeing how many packages comes through on the day for that customer. say you have order 2 or more they attend to keep them behind and make the money off the order.

This is great news ;)

Interestingly, Keith doesn't require the UKARA registration. Things could get quite dodgy quite fast if you ordered from him now without a UKARA number.

Im very tempted by that M10 revolver. Even if it is rubbish, the shells are so cool!

Ive got one. Its ... special :)

I especially love the small pot of paint BBs it comes with :roll:

"Hop Up" is just a ring of rubber the BB is inserted into on the shell so bascially it has no hop whatsoever. Wheel action is a little unpredictable but works 90% of the time. Shells fall out easily when the wheel is open so, as Yith pointed out to me, its probably wise to glue them in.

Cheap and cheerful. Works as a backup. Holds enough gas for about 24 shots maybe. but its a wheel gun so... Bonza :)

It sounds almost exactly the same as my Marushin 6mm M10... even looks exactly the same in the pic on RSOV.

Including (unfortunately) the post-war heavyweight barrel.

It should be tapered for wartime... Ideally also an extra inch long if its a look-a-like for the Victory Revolver.

BTW... the rubber ring just holds the bb in place in mine... it is in no way a hop-up and can't really be in the Bell one either!

Ahh well I was assuming thats what Bell called a Hop Up as thats what it proudly claims on the box. Oh yeah comes with a nice case too :D

Mine came in bubble wrap direct from japan... lol

From what I can see of the reviews on RSOV there have been concerns regarding the reliability... I've had no problems with my Marushin... In fact the gas chamber doesn't leak at all. Gas stays in it for weeks at a time... :)

I read that Bell also apparently claim its a Marui on the box cover. Is that right?
