Mk9 Posted October 16, 2023 Share Posted October 16, 2023 Hi All, So who makes the best quality .50 cal replicas? Had a quick search on line and found the following companies... Crossfire Military Muckabouts Relics Someone from another hmvf thread also mentioned Chris Goldings replica .50's are pretty good?

REME 245 Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 Being a member of the MVT or similar group should be sufficient for most dealers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steviem Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 I am a MVT member? Might be worth a shot being part of the Jeeps furniture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MatchFuzee Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 As the MVT is officially recognised as a re-enactment group, trust members over 18 years of age can legitimately purchase, own and display RIFs. https://www.mvt.org.uk/firearms-and-weapons.html 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steviem Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 Managed to get the 30 cal i must say the service at crossfire was excellent the product is very well made weight is around 6.5kg so manageable i need to age it with a bit of wire wool and old grease and oil, then save for either the tripod or mount. Thanks for the help guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfy Posted September 9 Share Posted September 9 (edited) Agree with you StevieM Crossfire have been very good to deal with. I have asked them to not paint my .50 cal so I can paint it myself as all solid black looks too new IMHO. I also asked them to do some additional moving parts and modifications.

steviem Posted September 13 Share Posted September 13 Didn't know they could do that, trigger and cocking handle would finish it off, going to try age it with wire wool, old engine oil and grease. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
