Has anyone purchased a replica gun from The United States Replica Gun Co.in Pennsilvania? Their videos look pretty good.

So who’d you go with?  Steel, resin?  Functionality?

They look great by the way.  ;)

Had a resin 50 but looked fake, went with America Repli Gun co. They look and function like a real one, handles are new old stock wood, all American steel gun and they are heavy.  Check out their web site  Replicaguns.com
Got 2 m1 garands and bayonets they are Denex guns but Replica Gun Co tricks them out to look and function like the real thing

There are two places I know of that reproduce the pulpit armor. One is BAIV in europe and the other I cannot mention on this site.

HT came with with pulpit, ring is original but was told pulpit armor is not. It is older restoration so no idea were he got it.
