Bit of a weird journey to get here via whisky, some weird logic and a RAF member name of WildBill, courtesy of another forum. Anyroadup as they say, gots me a couple of replica poppers, 1970's air and spring plus a few newer C02 items like Colt SAA, Milbro 357 revolver and a self-aged MP40 with home-made case. Have had others and moved them on. In this vein, I for my sins, do restoration work on cars which sometimes involves detailed fabrication work in steel sheet of varying thicknesses. Boring, I hear you say but here's the thing. I see magazines and other parts of replica guns that may be unavailable or simply beyond the abilities of some people here. I am happy to attempt replication/fabrication of some pieces that may help with the modification of some replicas that may want more involved changes to improve the authenticity. No promises but I'm happy to try.

PS, the boss man will be around soon enough to free your permissions so that you can see the rest of the forum. (I don't think I have that power yet, do I Shaun?).

That's you all set now martin, you've now got full access to the ' members only' sections (the 'Saloon' and the 'Bargain Basement'), feel free to have a 'mosey' around and post where ever you want. We're a friendly bunch of guys, so feel free to ask any questions you want and we'll do our very best to help you out. If you're wanting to post any photographs to the forum then your best bet is to have a picture hosting account with one of the many FREE websites that are available (Flickr, Postimage, imgbb, etc.), they'll give you a BBCode link to any of your pictures which you simply just 'paste' into your post. If you're needing any more information on posting pictures to the forum then go HEREIt's always handy to know a sheet metal fabricator, very handy indeed, now where did I put that list of things that I need fabricating ? lol All that's left is to officially welcome you to the forum, so...
