HAs anyone bought one of these...i know they are rubber and thats why i wanna get one...keeps the weight down.

But does the handle actually connect to anything in the cover to stop it from falling out?

ok, well the rubber ones were moulded with the ends on, so if it hasnt got one, its broken off, some of my crew here in Marrakesh just did, the Pacific War B.O.B 2 and have moulds for a lot of the weapons, will see if they have any props moulds like the E tools

ahh, if its just the handle then no, its not made to be worn in the pouch, all the rubber ones worn would have had the head attached. this will be a prop made to be strapped to a doughboy pack or a vehicle etc

What else can you get moulds for? Just out of interest...Thompson mags? Mk2 Frags? Fancy making some money haha? :wink:

ooooo...Could be worth making a bit of cash on the side....I've only just looked into this pacific war series...i thought it was just a rumour. Missed out on it again!!

They filmed BOB and SPR like 5 mins from my house and missed the deadline for extra's casting then.

Pacific was film in Australia.

A friend of mine was a Jap extra in it, even though he's Chinese/Malaysian.... :slap:
