I just bought one of these on the promise of quality German engineering.
It's made out of cheap plastic that doesn't look like it went through any sort of quality control.
Looks like it was made in an East German sweatshop by North Korean wave slaves.

How are you enjoying the price markup?
>>
>>33968405

I thought this kit looked neat for a SBR build I was considering. Glad I found out it's a giant POS before I bought it.
>>
>>33968514
Same here, I was considering the stock for Featureless Build. Went to local Gun Store to check it out, was very disappointed it felt so cheap.

On the bright side go on Cal Guns, people are selling their's like hot cakes.

It should have been apparent this would be a giant scam to anyone who knew Hera's reputation for making flashy products that were actually cheap shit with a premium price. Those pictures showing the furniture halved and revealing its literal Chinese grade shell construction should have been the glaring red flag for people not aware of Hera's infamy.

And you STILL had retards in the resulting concern threads saying nothing was wrong and that their years of supposedly working with injection molding gave them the expertise to determine whether this stuff would be worth it.

The stock and foregrip will be nice for movie armorers for sci-fi movies.

Ergo, the Hera furniture is the modern day equivalent of the 1980's Muzzelite kit for Mini-14s, a piece of shit that's kind of visually interesting.
>>
>>33968991
Should have bought some quality American made MagPul furniture.

>>33968832
Does anyone else make a thumb-hole foregrip for rails?
>>
They looked kind of cool but, like others said, Hera's quality is dubious. But I also got 10 of their mags for $100 Cdn so that was all right.

tl;dr: There's airsoft shit out there that's better quality.
>>
>>33968405
I figured that out when I looked at a cross section

I cancelled my order for the stock as soon as I got the foregrip. It's shit

I have a quadrail from them that's alright though

I know exactly who you are talking about and I want him to show his fat fucking face again to try and defend this shit now.
>>
>>33972823
It's most certainly NOT skookum. Has AvE taught you nothing? Look at the fine details on the parts, that part wasn't made with glass reinforcement.
>>
>>33972950
Moral of the story: never buy a product made for a restricted state market.

nice.
that shit's straight fuckin ABS. I'd be concerned about the area in the receiver curve (between the buffer tube and grip) breaking.

You people are fucking cancerous. While AvE is amusing, adopting his schtick and retarded words he makes up just marks you out as enormous faggots.

I said absolutely nothing bad about AvE. I watch and enjoy his stuff.

I'm making fun of you goobers because you're using his retarded made up words like it's cool or something.

The fact remains that thing is a piece of shit made out of shitty plastic. You can plainly tell just by looking at it.

>>33974081
Skookum is a real word, it's from the PNW natives. I hear it in Washington state on occasion.

Magpul is faggy, but you have to admit it's not bad quality for the price.

I'm sorry to inform you but he's just playing up his accent. Those are actual words that Canadians (mostly on the prairie) say on a daily basis.
>>
>>33974194
If the PNW natives have it, they got it from fur trade with Alberta. It's most common in the BC interior and on the flat bits in the middle.
>>
>>33968405
What the fuck did you expect from German made AR parts aimed at the civilian market? Nobody there is buying the fucking thing because none of them have ARs, it's made entirely to appeal to American COD kiddies who will buy it up before any reviews are out that warn people it's trash.

It even looks like cheap shit from the outside.

Honestly though, what the fuck is a German company doing making civilian AR parts?
>>
>>33974256
>Honestly though, what the fuck is a German company doing making civilian AR parts?
Here's a better question: Why isn't anybody making this product properly?

It's pretty fucking clear that AR's have reached a technological plateau and future development will be in aesthetics. Why aren't any companies aiming to distinguish themselves in this regard? It's all meme spacegun bullpups and tacticool AR aesthetics. There are massive unfilled niches in the aesthetics market.
>>
>>33974409

No one wants to step up first and admit that their product only exists to look cool.

You've gotta maintain the tactical meme.
>>
>>33974481
that. and every look has been done before.

Full length wood handguards with low-profile gas blocks. I haven't seen that on ARs yet. High quality wood, checkered in the parts that matter. An AR with a "John Browning" aesthetic.

Cut down on the sharp corners and visual clutter. Make a gun that looks sleek without complex spaceage curves. Make an AR that's everything this muzzle brake isn't.
>>
>>33974603
Are those functioning rails?
What would anyone possibly want to put on those?

Bought both the stock and foregrip. Stock is highly disappointing and I'll be replacing it but the foregrip is decent. Solid and no wiggle whatsoever
