making a 'modelgun collection' forum-section?

Hello Everybody

I'm Benny from Belgium and for the moment I have 14 modelguns, which are:

- KSC beretta M93R
- KSC beretta M93R Auto 9 (Robocop)
- Wa Shan M9 Dolphin (silver version)
- Marushin USN 9mm dolphin (silver version)
- MGC beretta M92FS U.S. military 9mm M9
- MGC Colt Python .357 4" (black version)
- MGC Colt V10 ultra compact
- MGC M32RS2 riot shotgun with folding stock
- MGC Ingram MAC11
- Marushin M635
- Marushin M16
- Marushin UZI all metal
- Hudson Desert Eagle 50AE (black version)
- Hudson Desert Eagle 50AE (silver version)

I also have (I think) 32 different blank firers, but this list would become tooooooo long

Modelguns I would like to add to my collection:
- Tanaka Sig Sauer P226 silver version
- Tanaka Glock 18 railed frame version
So if anyone wants to sell a P226 or a G18, please let me know
Very important: they must be in very good condition!!

I recently had the chance to buy a laser for my beretta M9 and I just needed to show this to you guys

Hi Kickback, just the person I was looking for
Thanks already for the 'welcome', but Cerwyn told me you have a CD with the English instruction manual for my 'new' UZI. Is that right? And could I also get a copy of it??

Hi Benny,

Yes i think i still have that on file,if not i can rescan the original one again and put it onto disc with a few other goodies .
I will send you a PM when its ready ( Don't worry its cheap )
Cheers

Kickback

OK thx man!

Being a member of this forum is no good !
I told my wife I would stop buying modelguns when I had the models mentioned in my first post.
In the meantime I've already bought an UZI, a MGC V10 ultra compact and a Marushin M635 already, and the next one will definately be a M16 as I want to add a M203 on it.
Think my wife doesn't believe me anymore

Welcome to the Club, I keep telling MYSELFI won't buy anymore but something just MAKES me do it....

WOEHOE my M16 is almost on it's way to Belgium

Waiting is the most exciting part.

Of course until you get to the next most exciting part :-D

As you all may know, the M16 has arrived and after some difficulties, I think it's OK now Didn't fire it yet, but it seems to work fine (feeding, extracting, ejecting, ...).

Now I'm still looking for a M203, but it seems very difficult to get one. I already contacted some airsoft shops, but even they can't get me one. Anyone any ideas??

Yesterday I also received my Wa Shan M9, and man this is great :d Just tried 6 carts, but fires like crazy

Also a Desert Eagle is almost on it's way and I edited my first post to make the list a little up to date.

Maybe it would be nice to have a section on this forum 'modelgun collections' where everybody could post some pictures of his own collection. Maybe for some people it's almost impossible to post their complete collections, but maybe they can post the most special items then?

It seems that nobody is really interested in a 'modelgun collection' section on the forum.
[Edit: Category opened in response to this Cerwyn]

Anyway, here is a pic of my Marushin M16 with G&P M203.
Fits VERY good. Just had to put some layers of ducktape on the barrel, and unscrew the barrel almost completely.
It was possible to screw the barrel in the receiver with 3 complete turns. To tighten it some more, I have added some teflon (what you use for sanitary purposes ) and it feels very good now. No extra modifications needed!

The G&P M203 has all the correct markings:

Hi Benny,

I must hold my hand up and apologise for not getting around to setting up a dedicated "My Collection" category on here yet . Time is my biggest problem, just keeping the forum up to date, answering e-mails from new and prospective members and watching out for spammers is a full time job these days
I'm not complaining, quite the opposite in fact, I'm thoroughly enjoying myself doing all this.

I keyed in "My Collection" into the Search facility here and scored a good number of hits. I'll try setting up a category and transfer these over in the next day or two.

I've been lucky enough to gather together a decent collection by now. I've so little time on my hands I don't even get to fire them much these days, let alone write the Reviews, Strip Down and Rebuild Guides, Firing Videos as I'd planned. I will get around to it, sometime, I hope

Your M16 looks really well with your M203 launcher fitted, you've done a nice job fitting that. I've copied and pasted your photos and comments over onto the Marushin M16 and Modifications sections too
How easily can you remove the launcher to gain access to the Det. Pin & Chamber for cleaning
My own version is a bit of a time consuming job which makes the process of cleaning more labourious than usual.
The launcher itself shoots rubber"grenades" a good distance all good fun

Hi Cerwyn

Great! When I have a little more time I will upload some pictures of all my modelguns.
No problem that it took some time to create a 'my collection' category I understand it must be quite a job to control a complete forum!

The M203 is quite easy to remove, but the problem is that the back 'lips' on the launcher have to fit nicely around the barrel, so you have to add a lot of ducktape-layers. Otherwise the M203 keeps moving/turning around the barrel. Problem is that, the more ducktape you add, the quicker the ducktape will deform and fumble up (is this clear? ). I think you would have to redo the ducktape quite often when you remove the M203 a lot.

I really appreciate all your efforts. Must say your M16A1 w/ M203 looks very impressing.I have quite a few AR-15 models, but no M203 yet.

Hi MadMike, thanks!
If you want to, I can give you the contact details of the person where I ordered mine.
Let me know!

I asked for this section, so here we go! Hope you all like my collection!

Marushin M16 with G&P M203

MGC Ingram MAC 11



Wa Shan Beretta M9



Marushin M9 Dolphin



KSC Beretta M93R



MGC Beretta M9



Hudson Desert Eagle 50AE

MGC V10 ultra compact



MGC Colt Python 357



And last but absolutely not least: MGC M31RS2

yellow - what a great pictures of a great collection!
Your modelguns look great in sunlight :-)
I noticed that many cartridges are "real look" type. They certainly add to the impression!

As you have so many Beretta M9 from various manufacturers, could you please write a comparison for "reviews" section?
I am interested what KSC, Marushin, WaShan and MGC did differently, and you can check it easily :-)

Is it convenient to hold two Desert Eagles at the same time? I have an airsoft one from Tokyo Marui, it is a very large pistol. I guess cap-firing version is heavier.

That's a NICE collection you have there Thanks for sharing these photos. If you've no objection I'd like to copy the XM carbine, MGC M9 and UZI photos over to the dedicated categories too please.

How do those Mulberry Field Real Look cartridges perform in your models Did you need to make any modificatons to Det.Pins etc
