Which Model to get next?

Post by Phil_D

Guys,
I'm running out models to get, so far i have collected since February...

2 x 1911
2 x M92
3 x PPK
2 x XM177E2
2 x UZI
1 x M4a1
1 x Thompson M1921 (open barrel)
1 x M1873 (Custom engraved edition)
1 x M19 Combat Magnum
1 x Colt SAA 45
1 x M76
1 x Vz61
1 x Mp40
1 x Sten

I am waiting on a M3A1 and .50 Desert Eagle and have just asked Francky and Shazhib to look out for a AK47 for me.

What else is there, unfortunately things like the Sterling are too pricey for me.

Open to ideas please only 3 months 'til October !!!

mate, i have the same problem i just dont know what to get as i think have mot thingsYou say no sterling as its to costly so i suppose the mgc mp40 is out as well? do you have a metal mp40 that ccould be a way to go, what about a PPSH. do you want handguns or sub guns, full auto orsingle and what price are not prepared o go over as all these things will narrow you choice.

Same here, i have most things that i originally wanted now.
The PPsH is a good choice, classic WWII Russian weapon, yep i'll add to the list, thanks

Not too bothered what they are but they have to have a bit of history behind them if you know what i mean, rare offerings like the VP70 dont interest me but i would buy it if it was around £100 or so, in fact i would probably buy anything if it was <£100

Upper limit? well generally no more than £300 but thats not to say i wouldnt pay more for an exceptional piece (if i wanted it of course).

Phil_D,

Hi,
I think you may already know, but it may worth checking this site.
The site owner has massive collection, may give you a good idea of what you are missing.

You can contact either Francky or myself what you want, so that we can check whether the model you want is still availble, difficult to get or other advise.

Regards,

S

How about a .44 Automag, you dont have one of those?

the berreta M12s is a great looking model and can fire realy well but it does have its problems. the barrel and breach are one peice and the breach and ramp are very thin and prone to break and spares are impossible to get and rounds are getting very hard to find for it now and as yet i have not found a substitute for it.
The ingram is a must although i have found it fires beter on open style rounds than cp, it fires at a hell of a rate and makes a great sound it is a must have if you dont have one.

Post by Phil_D

Never really been keen on the automag series but if one came along i would probaby take it..

OK - Beretta M12s and Mac 11 added to my list

Hiya Phil,

Blimey mate you have been collecting haven't you?

The Luger P08 is a must for historical interest. I've got one but as it's an absolute swine to clean I don't fire it. Damn shame really as it works really well.

Mauser M712 Broomhandle, again loads of history and 20rds in full auto, lovely!

MAC11 just to see and hear it empty 30rd mag in 1 + 1/2secs

M3A1 Grease Gun

I would also love a good pfc AK47 but can't find a good one and even if I did they're expensive.

Which Sten do you have? If you want a brilliant Sten, get MGCUK's all steel one even if youhave to sell something toget one, IT IS SUPERB.
Hopefully Kevin will start making them again soon nce the MP38 project is sorted.

Walther P38, again a good piece of history

What about an M16A1?

Mauser - yes, good call Cerwyn, forgot about that one !

Yeah i have been spending like crazy since i found out how cheap they are from Japan

Grease Gun on "order" just waiting for a mag problem to be sorted in Japan. (Info from Shazhib)

I have just asked him to look for the Mac 11 kit, luger, M12s and Mauser for me.

I have the Hudson Sten that broke its receiver, Francky has sent the replacement and i also have my finish my own replacement part

P38, again another one i had forgotten, will add that one to next months list

Cheers
