I think there is a demand. Some of us just think that "tank are supposed to shoot", and if you're going to have a tank that shoots - it should shoot. Why even bother putting an airsoft in a tank that is going to have a 5 foot effective range. Please don't say, "you'll shoot your eye out" or "these are just toys". It comes down to individual responsibility and accountability, just like owning any other weapon. I don't need Big Brother/Big Govt to place controls on me "for my own good"

It's pretty sad that you can't even get a airsoft VSTank in the US, and some other countries apparently, but you can get a full auto hard hitting airsoft rifle [as well as bb/pellet guns that can kill small animals] just about anywhere here. I'm a cop and we use airsoft rifles/pistols for training and even draft local kids to bring theirs and play bad guys against us in our school buildings, etc and I'll tell you - those full auto MP5s and M14s hurt and have a heck of an accurate range to them. These tanks don't NEED to be so wimpy, but if HL makes them that way to save $$ is another matter.

Anyway, some of us just like driving them around plinking targets, etc. As for damaging your tanks, the biodegradeable BB break apart on impact [watch Shen's YouTube video] and the paintballs are washable... and um, don't shoot your good models!

Mr312... glad to see you on here! Your post sounds promising and I'd love to hear more. What do you mean by "we'll be selling turrets soon"? Do you mean a Creeping Death turret [with recoil/laser/hop up] that you can drop onto an existing HL tank??? [X(] I have two HL Tigers, so when you came out with your versions, as much as I would love to get one, it was hard to justify the expense for a third tank. That would just be incredibly awesome, and probably very profitable for you! There are a ton of HL tanks out there with owners that laugh at the stock airsoft system.
