Keystone Arsenal Replicas... anyone know anything?

Hi Cerwyn
You are absolutly correct I must learn to look/read properly
(teachers always said read the question twice )
I was refering to keystons 1928 Thompsons I had a chat with Gary about them some time ago.

Ok To redeem myself:)
The keystone M1A1 situation (the one in the photo)

To quote Gary at Keystone
"Now, the M1A1 Thompson, is a KAR exclusive, and we build them right here. They use a happy amalgamation of some Denix Parts, Custom Parts, and genuine Thompson Parts....These guns are amazing!"

Hope that helps:)

Good find John their M1A1s are a right mixture of parts then. It'd be interesting to see more detailed photos of this one.
The Upper Receiver and Barrel could very well be custom made, iron sights wouldn't take much work to make, woodwork's possibly Denix as could be the lower receiver and trigger. Different switches, Thompson mag ...

All in, a nice looking rep'

That M4 got me hooked. I looked at the pictures for a long time and I too noticed that the bolt looks very similar to current GBB designs. It seems a great, full-metal dummy model for a good price. Anyway it won't cycle carts, and it has no gastube, no rotating/locking bolt and no markings. I am not yet sure what to think about it ...
