Looks like Mark's original site mp40modelguns.com after laying unused for some years is no more..
If it has gone forever, RIP Sad

Mark did not extend his rights to the domain and it expired this month.
Domain is currently on hold and can be still restored if paid for.
Otherwise domain will become free to purchase by anyone in a few months.

Content is probably still there, we just can't reach it.

It is such a shame that Mark's original site suffered technical hitches back in early 2008. If you recall the site was down for a long time which prompted myself to set our current site up with Mark's permission.
Fortunately, most of the original content was saved and transferred onto here. Mark did, eventually sign up on here as "MP40" but didn't take up the offer of his Administrators' role back.

It is thanks to Mark and his original site that my interest in Modelguns developed into a full blown hobby which I'm still enjoying now some 10 or 11 years after buying my first Modelgun.
I'm sure that many of us did the same.

I hope Mark will return to contribute and be a part of our Forum. His wealth of knowledge was invaluable.

I can remember very well when my interest in modelguns was started back in 2004/2005. Mark and his forum were my first and only link to the world of modelguns back then, and he was extremely helpful. I hope and pray he is all right. I really have missed him over the last years.
