Airsoft in Hong Kong (56k death)

Ever wonder how those stores you order from Hong Kong look like? Here are a few pics.. Got in trouble for taking the pictures but it was worth it.

This is all the crap I bought so far:

Stuff in HK is slightly cheaper than online prices.. u can bargain like hell as well, which is what I did. I got some parts for slightly cheaper than advertised.. ehobby looks the best, followed by WGC.. ill be there for 2 more weeks..bought a few parts for a few of my ASC buddies as well..i completely upgraded my WE M4 with RA TECH parts since its really cheap here.. my aunt lives very close to airsoft central so i can pretty much walk down there everyday and admire all the parts.. u CANT possibly look at everyrthing because there is WAAY too much..

Haha are you a Canadian born Chinese? Yeah They speak Cantonese more fluently , their english is a bit choppy so better if you could communicate to them in cantonese, make sure you know you all your airsoft terms in Cantonese though or else you wont know wtf they saying lol.

Might i Recommend UNcompany, those guys fluent in English even though they speak with an accent, and they have plenty of experience dealing with native english speakers, since all the international school kids go there.

I know this for a fact, however you might hit a language barrier when you are in Kwong Wa Street, also known as Gun street, most of the store owners are locals and cant speak english that well, however prices are really low, and differ from store to store, so take your time walking around before purchasing, you can find something for 50 Hong Kong dollar whilst another store will be 40 HKD. saving you 10 bucks CHEAPPPPP

Yeah, I was born in Canada XD, I only been to HK once when I was little. I can speak cantonese but it isn't the greatest. Well if anything, I'll bring my cousin along as a translator ahaha. How about WGC or Redwolf? I want to see Arclight from Redwolf ahaha.
