TEC-9 and a 3 day growth! (Or..Big Trouble, getting it in from China !)

And you wonder why I stuck with V2. I did not want more than 300fps as if you have been mag dumped in the face it kinda hurts.

Function over performance. For me anyway :+1:

I noticed ihobby is sold out of the standard tec 9

So the tactical tec-9 variant came packaged much more appropriately this time

Bubble wrapped to perfection

The tactical tec-9 in it’s final form

I definitely like this version more than my gold one

So the stock is nice and solid, has a good weight to it and is extendable



The muzzle unfortunately has no inner barrel to assist the gels coming out so there wouldn’t be any gain in fps, but it looks pretty dope with it

Looks very nice, like a slim PDW style 9mm

The stock slots on and is nice and sturd, no slop or wobble.

not sure if it’s possible to use it on anything else.

The sight has a red crosshair, nothing special but a nice touch I guess

Looks pretty good without the stock as well

And I don’t mind the red trimmings

All in all I’m pretty happy with it, low fps sucks but this was merely for nostalgic value.

Hopefully we’ll get gas ones soon :call_me_hand:t2:

“A bit of lob and it’ll make 30 paces”… :rofl:

Not a stellar performer, hey? :laughing:

It was a bit of a shitbox in the real steel arena, why would the blaster be any different? :person_shrugging:

ihobby were selling these for $79, around May this year…still are!!!

$129…. hmmmm…“inflation”…!!!

‘Cost of Lobbing’ crisis…must be linked to insurance premiums…!!

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

On the other hand :raised_hand:t2:

50 bucks is 50 bucks…

Who’s to say they didn’t buy them in bulk from ihobby and have now marked them up over 50%

Can’t blame them too much tho, the overheads to keep their store couldn’t be cheap

Command elite hobbies had them for $75 a short while ago, they’ve sold out since and removed the listing

This is true…

But…

A bit harder to sell, when ihobby have em for 40% cheaper…

But, that assumes a savvy shopper, who shops around…

Doesn’t stop GB you know who :sweat_smile::joy::joy:

Rhymes with “poo”

:joy::joy::joy::joy:

Ah, they all do it… buy cheap and mark up for profit. But they’re not a charity group, I guess. Gotta make money to keep the lights on. :person_shrugging:

Even the better ones mark up the same item that they sold for less six months ago… even the one that ryhmes with “Specs Source Optical”. :rofl:

Yeah true, true…

But some more within reason than others…

But optical doesn’t rhyme with practical :wink::joy:

I’m sure most of them would be more reasonable if bricks and mortar rent was not such a rip off. :unamused:

I just paid my land tax today.

Most landlords get called " greedy" and "ripoff " etc…but…

I can tell you, of the rent you collect, a lot goes in taxes and charges.

Company tax, land tax, rates, landlord insurance, property management, repairs…

If you get half of the rent you recieve, your doing well.
And, thats if you own it outright, and aren’t paying interest to a bank.

The two biggest grabbers are the Govt, and the banks…

But yes, rent is a big cost of running a bricks and mortar buisness…
