There is nothing wrong with Airsoftmegastore, I have purchased many items from them over the years and never had a problem.
I do however question your choice of weapon. I just cannot recommend the Dboys k98. They shell ejection system may be cool for backyard plinking but I can assure in the heat of battle your are going to be kicking yourself in the butt for having acquired this weapon. Firing 5 shots and then scrambling in the dirt to find your shells to reuse them is a nightmare. In addition, for a single shot weapon its range is very limited and further limited under cold weather conditions as gas weapons do not like the cold (unless you get the spring version). Last but not least. The wood looks very cheap and unless you try and weather it the rifle looks like a toy.
You may want to inquire with actual owners of this rifle and get their opinion as mine is based on the ones I have seen in the field and the reviews. That is why I never purchased one.

I'm buying one with a bar10, I'm doing the conversion to use bar mags instead of the shells. I already know it's a piece of applesauce by itself. Lol.

I bought the Dboys full wood Kar98k and JG Bar10 from airsoft megastore in august, and it kind of looked like the box was thrown off their roof. Everything inside seemed fine though. If you are planning on doing the conversion you can ask me if you need any help I finished mine in october and used it at war behind the eastern front and it was awesome
But yeah the dboys by itself sucks

I've ordered from megastore a few times. Each experience was textbook: everything went according to expectations. Their descriptions are a bit...glorified...but aside from that, I can't really fault them.
just my two cents however

Ok forget everything I said the Bar10 is a P.O.S it broke on me today, the same way all of them do. I went target shooting and bolt slammed foreward on me after I cocked it and slit the top of my hand and I almost needed stitches. Now I read some reviews today and they all have a slam firing problem because the sears are so thin. My friends broke the same way and his broke in ~2 days but I figured he was going crazy with it, I guess I was lucky it lasted me through a whole event and all together a month. It pisses me off that I spent $300 and 2 months to build and now it slam fires.
I would save your money and buy a tanaka

I would, but I'd rather have a k98 year round instead of dealing with 89 dollar mags and using gas, I know you can replace the piston and sears to fix the bar10.

Yeah I'm going to replace the sears, but I know after 500 shots they'll probably grind down again.

hmm i just order a dboys kar98k wood version from here this gives me little more hope, and yes i already have a bar10 well no a hfc usr11(same exact thing) for the conversion, my friend is more mechanically inclined than i so he is doing it for close to nothing for me. tips would be great because the conversion of the bolt guide doesnt seam all that sturdy.

I just ordered three guns off of Airsoft megastore. I have ordered many a mag off of them and everything has come in pristine packaging. I made purchase of a (can hardly say the name with out shame) crossman c41 basically a co2 powered Walther p38 replica, HFC ppk GNBB and an HFC colt 25 auto GNBB. Since I just got my tracking I will let you know a few days after Christmas to see if they blundered on my order or not.
