Maybe you can try contacting them..

Well its safe to assume that even though they are out of stock the item is not discontinued due to the fact that you can request a stock refill notification.
If an item was discontinued, stock notification would not be available. That is my first guess at at least. As already recommended the best thing you could do is to contact the company directly.

What does that tell you?

If a company doesn't have time for customer support, I wouldn't trust them to process my order very well.

I could buy from them or I could buy from evike, no one else sells them except for a weird site that doesn't look reliable. I think this is more reliable than evike, with it's 40 dollar shipping.

I believe Capital airsoft had some in stock, however their website is down right now so I cannot confirm that. Capital airsoft is located in Canada as well so you wont have to worry about insane shipping or brokerage fees.

Contact Jeff at Capital airsoft. he's a one man army trying to do the best he can and doesnt always have time to update his website. however his customer service is amazing (as with all independant airsoft company's in canada) and I believe he may have some in stock last time I spoke with him.

Airsoft GI's customer serivce is excellent. They've replied to all emails except one. People have ordered from them and had great success (the people who ordered are in Canada).

Go to Capital Airsoft though.
