WOO! got a "real-ish" webley stock, bracket, and Grip!

It is for ESB...i dunno if i want to do that to it. Assuming its a replica it wouldnt be the end of the world...i didnt do it on my woodman stock, not sure if i wanna do it to this one.

It should have been here Tuesday, but the post office messed up and shipped it to the wrong post office...so know im waiting for it to get back here..ugh.
 
Well,I just tried to order one of these,and they Emailed me back saying they wont ship outside of the States because its over $100|||
I can explain that one, it's due to US State Dept ITAR regulations, which stands for International Traffic Arms Regulations (ITAR), I only know this because I am involved with competitive pistol shooting up here in Canada, and I routinely order gun parts from a US company called Brownells.

All gun parts being EXPORTED out of the US have to be under $100, and come from a list of Registered Factories, I don't know why it's $100, but it is.

I JUST got it yesterday! It was sent back to the seller for no reason...but i have it now. From California to NY, an hour away from me, and back to California...just to be sent back to me in NY. This thing travels more than i do! lol. It is 100%, unfortunately, a replica. the wood looked like it was painted rather than stained so i re-did it. It does make my blaster look nice though, and gives it a more real feel due to the weight. I have it hanging over my desk :)

I done a firearms repair course in the early 80s , import law on replica or antique is not a problem but on de-activated has to go through gun shop for certificates


You'll also need to consider UK Firearms laws and importation laws. As this item would invariably fall under the Firearms act 1968 as a section 1 firearm despite the fact that it is only a stock you might have difficulty here too e.g in the UK being in possession of part of a section 1 firearm (such as the stock) would be an offence.
 
Thats pretty cool man. It is pretty nice, and really makes a difference. Wish it was authentic, but hey, its one step up from resin! I think you'll like it!
 
If it's good enough for you Lou it's good enough for me matey , I think it looks pukka and saves looking for rockinghorse poo . We all would like genuine but hey , close enough is good enough and you can't beat the real feel (ooh err missus) Lol
 
lol. I agree. it does erk me that the cross hatching on the grip goes over the diamond and out of some of the edges, but eh..one day mebbe ill find an authentic grip at least. :)

For those that dont know, this is Stormriders awesome EE-3 kit. the breech discs are from Sidewinder, the molex connectors, AM plugs, Scope rings, and scope are all real deal items. Flash tube is a heiland..hopin to get an MPP one day.

The grip from the Webley Mk VI revolver shares the same dimensions and would make a great substitute. It would be made of dark bakerlite and so would have to ne painted gold and weathered but that wouldn't be too hard to achieve and the cross hatching would be molded lumps and bumps rather than scored. They come up from time to time on the auction site. One on there now but it is the wrong side and broken. Alternatively replica Mk IV. grips are easy to obtain from all sorts of suppliers.
 
Yea some of the revolver ones are the same, but if i have to paint it theres no point ya know? ..i could just keep the painted resin one, or get sidewinders cold cast one(which looks really really nice BTW) I wanted a real one specifically because its actually brass :) I have one from Hand-schaub thats bronze cast, and correct. its really nice, but i like the correct brass better than the bronze.
