Found this site when looking for cheap deacts then I noticed the amount of parts you can buy for MG's and just general cheap militaria but it is based in Germany and have no clue what this site is like.

Many people have used this site with no problems.

A number of airsoft and gas fire sim MG42's have been made using their steel reps.

People have used them very recently and had problems too.
They sent the wrong size trousers and they sent what was an absolute piece of junk as a customised highest quality steel helmet.
They don't take paypal anymore so you have to pay extra for a money transfer.
They have taken the items back, it cost £20 to post them, waiting to hear what they do next.

Ooooh, dodgy. There's absolutely no buyer protection through money transfer, just ask Lardy!

Not that there's much through Paypal either but at least if you pay by card via Paypal your bank protect you.

You still have to add £7 or 8 to the order to pay for the Iban transfer. Soon starts to look expensive.
It's another con by the British banks to squeeze money out of us. Iban transfers in Germany are free I think.
That of course has nothing to do with Zib. They dont set the fees.
I will say once I let them know there was a problem they were quick to respond. Send it back and we'll swap it out they said. So I sent it. Insured and track-able, I thought. If I enter the tracking number on Parcel Farce web site it says not track-able????????
Why are Parcel Farce so pants? Dont answer that, way off topic.

I have used Zib and had no problems. However there has been changes to German law regarding a lot of the items that they stock. I have a Zib Mg42, I can buy the model gun but can't say buy a good rear sight for it as the new law says it is a part from a gun? Just read the details carefully and you should have no problems.

Lt. Morris Schaffer: "Second rate punk," eh?
Major John Smith: Sorry. All I could think of on the spur of the moment.
Lt. Morris Schaffer: Thanks, that makes it even worse.

strange laws? its a wonder to me though that zib can sell anything at all from germany with the swastika and other nazi stuff being banned here and there.

How long does delivery tend to be?

Just wondering if you are still coming to Anarchy 21st Aug?
