Definitely not. I do plan to have a single shot blank firer that can be removed when not required, but the only thing coming out of the barrel will be smoke and loud bang :thumbup:

Thanks for nice comments guys. More photo's to come in the next few weeks.

I wondered about that based on the very nice looking breech work you have done...
Sorry, I was hoping you would'nt puposely build a working "gun" , but one never knows..... It's dangerous enough just shooting paintballs....

I am blown away with the great looking workmanship you are exhibiting...

Hi All,

After what seems an age I received a great big box today. To say I'm happy is an understatement. Nils has done a great job on my Marder and I can't wait to start adding stowage and painting the camo. It runs like a dream and has bendinin sound, full gun traverse and elevation, working lights and all the hatches open for full access. Much more to come soon once I've taken it out for a good run:

and a short video taster:

Lots more to come real soon,

Thanks Antony
