Medieval shop for Denix in UK

[lordjamster]

Medieval shop is the cheapest place I found to be selling the denix c96 Mauser. Just wondering if it was legal to buy from the site considering it hasn't been painted?

What country are you having it shipped to?
The denix I bought (from ebay) had an orange, plastic, plug in the barrel, which is only visible when looking down the end of the barrel.

As above will probably depend on which country you're shipping to. This other site will only sell them to certain people (film industry, museums, historical re-enactment groups etc):

Shame because it looks like a good and pretty cheap base for Han's blaster.

Let us know if you go for it and it clears customs

Sounds to me that it would run afoul of the UK's VCRA law.

I just got my Denix from Relics in the UK. They sell them with a brightly coloured SELF-ADHESIVE (yes, SELF-ADHESIVE) tape applied If you haven't managed to get one yet, I'd recommend them. Fast delivery too.
