AEP batteries I can source., I had a few once. EBB won't cut it for me, & GBB has its share of upkeep.
Possible to get AEP? Cyma would do, preferably the glock.

Re: AIRSOFT GUNS IMPORT (bb ones)
I’m Yogesh from Chennai. I have ordered an Electric Airsoft toy gun(AGF) made of plastic worth Rs.3000 (Only 1 quantity) from South Korean E-commerce website named GMARKET on 25th of September. When it reached Chennai the product showed ‘Item Held By Customs’. When I contacted the customs officials, they said airsoft is prohibited according to Indian Arms Rule and is treated as Firearms so it will not be returned to me. Further a Show Cause Notice will be issued to you stating to pay penalty. But I don't think the item that I ordered comes under imitation of firearms since it is just a plastic toy gun with orange tip and has less than 0.12 joule(140fps) energy. The customs officials have misunderstood between a firearm & a toy gun and also it doesn't even attract license to have the toy gun. What shall I do when the show cause notice arrives to me and when will they issue the SCN?...It's been more than 10 days since the customs confiscated my airsoft package.

Unlucky dude you'll need to visit the place to retrieve your aep with a lawyer which I would not recommend you as it will cost you around the same price as your gun maybe moreyogarjuna wrote: ↑Tue Oct 25, 2022 12:03 pmI’m Yogesh from Chennai.

Re: AIRSOFT GUNS IMPORT (bb ones)
Hello there... It's yogarjuna here. Sorry for Replying late. The customs officials have cleared my package after giving a long & tired speech thrice by myself to make them understand that it is not a firearm nor an airgun and I have received my Airsoft toy gun parcel through Speed Post exactly after one month of confiscation. But there were two problems while receiving:
1. I had to pay 100% import duty(Rs.3000) plus postal charges of Rs.100 for delivery to my place which really annoyed me.
2. The package came fully torn without proper repacking and with lots of plastic bbs missing(around 150). But the electric M4A1 RIS gun is perfectly working fine...Thank GOD

Re: AIRSOFT GUNS IMPORT (bb ones)
I contacted few lawyers and consulted them but their fees was 25000 which is more than 8 times the price of the gun. That's why I myself took care of it but had to pay 100% customs duty along with delivery charge. But honestly I'm a bit unsatisfied with the muzzle velocity(140-150 fps) of this gun which is very much low when compared to good quality metal ones with 350-400 fps. Is there any way to buy and import a good airsoft electric gun(AEG) without any hassle with indian customs? What kind of(list of) documents will be necessary to import one?Aryan Raj wrote: ↑Mon Oct 31, 2022 12:27 amUnlucky dude you'll need to visit the place to retrieve your aep with a lawyer which I would not recommend you as it will cost you around the same price as your gun maybe moreyogarjuna wrote: ↑Tue Oct 25, 2022 12:03 pmI’m Yogesh from Chennai.
