I was at the range the other day (primarily a "sight in your deer rifle" type), and noticed a guy with one of these (http://www.redwolfairsoft.com/redwolf/airsoft/ProductDetail?prodID=23141) on his rifle, a CMMG with FF railed guards. My first impression is that it's a gigantic piece of crap, but hey what do I know? Could it hold a candle to the SF unit? :confused: The guy was also sporting a CMMG 7.3 AR pistol with a BSA red dot. Oh, and I forgot to mention the Camelbak he was sucking on. :rolleyes: Strange lot down at the range these days....

I have seen 15 units, all with the same serial number (clue) fail miserably, some in less than 3 hours. All have been electrical problems and catstrophic melt downs.

The folks who purchased them, came back and purchased Surefire 910's and are now very happy.

Now if you are into airsoft, still wouldn't waste my money.

Rico = POS Chinese SF knock-off.
Made by douches for douches.

The guy who owns the company is Rico Tam and he is a real POS!

Looks like my first impression was spot-on in this case....

So can anybody tell me what's with the Camelbak thing? Are more people just becoming aware of the dangers of dehydration? :confused:
