I have been working on the gun elevator and made a press tool to form the barrel protectors as they are quite thick.

I found an old 3"dia shaft to make the Besa barrel end and have almost finished one complete unit.

I just noticed the other photos are up side down and I have no idea why and don't know how to change them.

If you're interested colin, i know some folk (as does Jack neville) who are very experienced in making gas fire simulators, who i'm sure would be able to make your machine guns sound and look very convincing, if you're interested that is...
cheers Chris

Hi Chris, already in the pipeline. I will make the replica guns and one of the RSA club members that comes out here will do the gas part. I'm sure you guys would know Brendon. Thanks for the offer.
Colin.

Yes, I've even been to a Mt Crawford a few years back, a great group of people. Pleased you have it well in hand, would seem a shame not to be able to make appropriate noises!

Thank you Tim.
Chris, you are right, after this much work it just has to have some bangs as well   I have been quite busy making the smoke launcher brackets and I need some details of the launcher itself if anyone has one.

I had to visit the Tank Museum this week and spotting the Vickers MkVIB I took the attached photo which may help you a little way, when making the smoke launchers. regards, Richard
