ok appart from webby, i dont know anyone else who has owned one of the VFC B.A.R.'s anyone got any info of problems and repairs etc ?
am seroisly thinking of buying one as have decided to sell 2 suits of Film armour. I dont use the CIA forum much these days,so any usefull info would be appreciated (if they are as much trouble as the rumours say ,will just build one i guess)
thanks
Doc Mac
I encountered two problems with the B.A.R. I had feeding problems because the hop up unit was not
screwed in. Apparently quite a few people had this problem but i could be fixed easily on my BAR.
Second problem is the stock wobble, you have to re tighten the two screws holding the stock from time to time.
But to reach them you need a quite long screwdriver.
You should strip down the gun and tighten every screw, there where a few quite loose on mine.
Other then that i think its a really great gun.
I think if you buy it from Fire-support they will stripe it before you take possesion and make sure everything is in order. They will also where possible, upgrade it.
thanks guys
had a good email from webby too, have almost raised the money now so will look in to talking to Fire Support ![]()
Whoop!!! We've got a proper little arsenal in the making
ouch! fire support now ask £1,025!!!!!!! ![]()
no they havent changed thier website and have none in stock either, waiting to hear back from them with a price, Chris did say a lot less than fire support, so will have to wait and see, thanks though
Bear in mind FireSupport by all accounts do a lot of work on their ones to actually make sure they shoot when you take them out of the box....
Pete59 got his from FireSupport and it apparently was working ok until just recently.
thanks for that, yes i know they do a lot , but for the extra £175 ?:wink: am sure i can do all that ok and save money too 
haha, pete's BAR lasted 10 mins at Saint Lo, and that was the first time he'd used it.
I had a new hop rubber and a tightened barrel put in mine.

bloody hell, did he get it from fire support?
, may have found a 2nd hand one that has had some work done already,,,,fingers crossed!
