Band of Brothers - Blank firing weapons


Jack

Recommended Posts

Evening all.

 

Does anyone know what the legal in's and out's are of blank firing weapons?

 

Taking Band of Brothers as an example, would it be totally legal for me to own and use every single weapon that was used on that film?

 

Cheers.

 

Jack.

Probably not, as a lot of the weapons hire companies use legally held live firers.

Took part in a battle last year where my mates deact .30 on his jeep was replaced with a converted live firer firing 7.62 rounds & a gunner to man it. Magic... 500 rounds in about 15 mins... :-D I was stood next to the Sherman as the .50 shell came rattling down the side of the tank.

My mate was deaf as a post afterwards but smiling like a cheshire cat

 

You could have as many of the rubber ones as you like though :-D

Well, whilst walking the dogs last night, I can up with a cracking business idea and I finished it off last night whilst I was in the shower.

 

Just need to know the legal stand point or a heads up to some official who would know :-D
