Mike, I don't know if you're religious, but if I was you, I'd start burning candles at my local church...and even then it might not work for you to have that kind of blaster ...in the U.K. to boot |

I have to agree with Joberg.
It's struggle enough to get any blaster in the UK.
I don't even want to think how much one in the UK would cost.
Sorry to put a downer on the situation. |

It's not the end of the world if I don't find one just a pipe dream. I'm busy polishing up the metal sidkit ready to blue and have cast the ammo housing etc in black resin ( I have access to an industrial vac chamber so no aero effect resin for me!). Also I'm planning on making various other versions of alternative pattern blasters converted from resin parts. Different snubbys etc... Watch this space... Just need to weather my coyle resin that I just finished making and painting ( made my own weaver knob etc too), but I'm off to burning man in Nevada on Monday so all projects r on hold!
Does anyone know of any good scifi/movie/prop related stores in sanfrancisco? I'll b stopping there for a couple of days. Also and idea where I can get testors metalizer in sf too? Can't get it in uk
cheers

hey, seems like that makes sense enough. the "T" version was a long shot. how about the hartford piece ? i managed to get the snub into the uk so there must be more out there. but none for sale atm as far as i can see. sorry for my obsession but im sure u all get me |

Yep, we get you, lol.
I searched for quite a while to get my Coyle.
Did you import the snub or was it already in the UK?
I'd love to maybe get one in the future and if yours got in it gives me a little hope, lol. |

Just as a curiosity... What are you willing to pay for one? The original price was about $850us but since there are only 250 in existence I would assume they cost more now. _________________ I just do eyes. |

I'd probably not be able to go above $1000 if one was to turn up. And in reponse to did I import the hartford snub, the answer is yes I did. I had no problems with customs who I called in advance. If u r a member of an airsoft site or part of a reenactment group there will def b no problem. I put my postal address as my work one which I think helped |

Ok so the t version seems impossible anyone know of a spare Hartford that I could purchase and mod? The snub version is so nice it needs a partner of the same quality!
cheers
