If you search "American civil war blank firing pistol for sale UK" there are a number of sellers e.g:- https://www.civilwarsutler.co.uk/products/blank-firing/ Your friend may do better asking his fellow civil war re-enactors for advice on the best pistol to buy rather than just buying one online.

  9. From the Telegraph:- The monument will be unveiled on the 75th anniversary in 2019 and is likely to be sited at either of two beaches: Colville Montgomery, code-named Sword Beach, where there is already a statue of Field Marshal Montgomery; or else at Ver-sur-Mer, which was given the code name Gold Beach.

  12. For the members who want PLI I would agree that it seems to be a good scheme but what about those who don't PLI?
  13. I guess, that by now all my fellow MVT members will have read about the proposed public liability insurance (PLI) in the February Windscreen and I would like to know your thoughts on the proposal. I'm only asking about the personal PLI part NOT the PLI for the Committee of Management or cover for the areas as this is obviously necessary. My first thought was it "seems too good to be true". My second thought was the shortage of detail about the insurance e.g. In the event of claim, how much is the excess? How much is the subsidy per member? This cover seems to be "one size fits all", as there doesn't appear to be any attention given to those members who don't need PLI. An example of this is a member who is interested in MVs but doesn't own one and is quite happy to receive Windscreen, go to the local area meetings and travel as a passenger in another member's MV on a road run etc.
  14. If you search "vintage fire extinguisher" on eBay, there are several that look similar to the ones in your photo but they would need spraying as they are red.
  15. If you are still looking for the brushes, have you thought about buying oversize ones and filing them to the correct size?
