Orange tip

[Long_Bong]

Quick one:

When you get a US AEG or GBB from ehobby (I know, not suppose to cross the border), how bad is it to remove the orange painted tip? Are the supplier using easy to remove stuff or do we end up stuck with orange tip?

Thanks,

Bong

removable most of the times, either paint or plastic tip.

For AEG's it's really easy they replace the flash hider with a plastic orange one. I've heard that for pistols' it can be a pain.

Standard procedure from what I've seen in the case of pistols is to have the end of the slider orange, as well as the barrel inside it.

ehobbyasia actually ships from Hong Kong. There aren't any laws/rules regarding orange tips in Canada, that's a USA thing.

Or if you meant, "How hard is it to remove the orange..." it shouldn't be that hard but some brands actually go so far as to spraypaint the end and the only way to remove that crap is to strip it to the metal then repaint with whatever colour you want.

For most the guns I have bought, there is a little screw on the flash hider that you take off with an allenKey
