Ah, sadly that makes sense. Thanks for clearing that up for me.

Which is why you should get your firearms license and get the real deals!
Yeah I know, but honestly, I don't want a real firearm and I would have no use for it. I'd never 'actually' use it.
Plus they're not cheap so I'm not going to start a real gun collection because it would cost me too much.
No, props and replicas are good enough for me right now.
Fair enough. But I will say that a lot of the repro guns you'd want to get cost more than their real life counterparts.
It's a slippery slope though, that's for sure. I collect old military firearms (such as WW1, WW2, and anything before) and like props there's always "just one more" you want. :lol
Hey I'd love to have a nice collection of real firearms, but right now it's not even practical for me. I wouldn't even have the space for them.
Do you have a Luger P08? I've always loved that gun.

Re: Tool Shops
Hey all,
I don't live near Toronto really (I'm in Ottawa), but am a fellow Canadian prop hobbyist.
Been in the prop hobby for about ten years now, and my collection would be a lot larger than it is if hard times hadn't hit me more than once, forcing me to liquidate part of it to make ends meet.
Luckily for me, most of what I've sold in the past is easily replaceable, so it's all good. I know enough people, and have made enough connections, within the online prop community over the years I have several sources for those items I want to reacquire.
At the moment, my collection mainly consists of Star Trek and HALO props, but am working on expanding into other franchises.
As for what particular items I have in my collection, the majority of them can be seen at the link in my signature.

Yep.
1917 issue.My favourite though is my C96 Broomhandle Mauser. 1916 issue with original stock.
Unfortunately, Batman's not my specialty for props, but which guns did you have in mind?
Re: Tool Shops
Well right now I'm drilling into Smoothcast 325, it's a plastic resin, so it's dulling the **** out of my drill bit.
Normally I use it for drilling wood.
I'll just go buy a new drill bit, I need to figure something out this week.

There's Blank gun available here, looks close enough
Hero Army Surplus Inc. : Zoraki Model R1 - 2.5" - $149.95|CDN
As for the Glock 17, I've seen a few airsoft models that are similar but most are clear or semi-clear plastic, and not with a 'nickel' slide.
I'm totally up for a GTA prop party! I'll even help organize if you like.

Newbie prop maker here from Smiths Falls (between Kingston and Ottawa).
I don't have a huge collection, but I just recently made a TNG Hypospray, a couple of PADD's, Mobile Emitter and I'm about 1/2 done a Type 3 Phaser.
I needed a break from that so I've JUST started an Ironman MKIV suit.
On a side note my wife and I are going to Whedonfest in TO, is anyone else going to check it out.
