Was schlepping around the web when I found this site..

www.cushmanpaintball.com/replicaM41A.html

What's the 'original' the guy is making the vacforms from?

He's using a replica to make his master by the look of things

He also sells the MG-42 in a thinner plastic (better detail but weaker walls):

One of our Biker Scouts has one, I'll see if I can find out from him how it holds up in the long run.

If I had to guess, I'd say he vacced that of an RC Roberts casting.

Well that hi res pic sure does make that PR look like utter crap.

I guess if you needed a half a dozen for a film this could be a cheap alternative.

But if this is to be your costuming pride and joy PR, I would save your money for a higher quality version.

Saw those last year. They're designed to encase a paintball gun, and the rest of the empty space is filled with spray foam.

Like was said, if you were making a fanfilm and needed a bunch of stunt rifles, this might be the way to go. At $50 they're cheap enough. Detail sucks though, but at a distance, would anyone really notice?
