Some bad news, a friend and possible supplier of guns has gotten himself in trouble. Jereimah "TommyGunner" has been tagged on the WWIIAA site as not to do business with. He has problems with some orders he has taken and money he has taken. VISA is after him. For right now it is advised not to order or send any monies to him.

Jere lives only a half hour away from me. I have been over to his place several times. He has had games at his house. He was always working on something in the basement. Still having trouble with believing this is all happening.

I know that many of you are currently members of the WW2AA forum which makes this a very appropriate place to post an appology. I have also posted a smilar one on the UK forum to express how sorry I am.
I wish to make an apology to the members of this forum who are part of the WW2AA forum or UK forum and to anyone who is a member here that may have purchased from me as well as everyone else who has had to read the thread in the WW2AA forum.
I also will not make any excuses for not having shipped the rifles sooner. Ultimatly regardless of what happened it is my duty to forill my promise. Unforseen circumstances as well as a lack of self discipline played heavly into the completion time for each gun. As for a lack of communications to my customers I take full responsibility for that as well.
I truely have good intentions, it is just that life became overwhelming after I switched majors, moved out to my college campus full time and my parents filed for divorce. I let the situation spin out of control when it could have been easliy fixed by simple communication with each customer.
Becuase of this situation I have re-designed how I do buissness entirely. All guns are now pre-built and can be shipped the same day and order is placed. If I dont have it in stock then Im not selling it. I also will have a dedicated person to monitor e-mails so responses to them can be sent out very quickly.
Again I am very sorry for all of this.
I wish to make an apology on the WW2AA forum however my account has been dissabled. Im not surprised it has been, I would have done the same thing.
Jeremiah

I too wish you good luck! I hope you find most of us far more understanding than the others. You don't need the WW2AA, I removed myself from that site. Look forward to seeing and hearing more from you.

Make a Gewehr 98 and all is forgiven (On the cheap preferably! )

Well thank you very much everyone. I know I do not deserve forgiveness but thank you for granting me that.
If there is a true interest in WW1 Airsoft rifles most of the rifles I build now are simple WW2 versions of WW1 guns. Backdating them to the correct WW1 version would not be hard at all.
If the demand is there I would be more than happy to build a few custom order rifles. I can make the Lee-Enfield SMLE No.1 MKIII (already have a prototype made) the M1903A1 Springfield (a current running production gun) and a G-98 (providing I can get a stock somewhere) I might even be able to make an M1917 should I again find the correct hardware.

Kar.98az would be nice. Not that far from ww2 kar.98 a VZ24 stock could be modified for this pretty easy (that's my plan). Attachments:

Now I have dropped a BAR-10 into a WW2 K-98 stock before (amazing rifle, used it for parts to finish some guns) I happen to have a few spare sets of K-98 hardware laying around and modifying a Vz-24 stock looks to be very simple. In short the gun would look very much like a G-98 but with a few bits of WW2 K-98 hardware on it (not sure where to find G-98 hardware on the cheap) I might even be able to make it a straight bolt weapon. Would anyone perhaps be interested for one at about the $500 mark? I wont make any unless there is an interest. I have enough parts to make two or three of them. TommyGunner

For a Kar.98az pretty much think Kar.98k and, forget the Gew.98. The only big differance in the WW1 and, WW2 rifles are, the WW1 rifle has stacking hook, full length hand guard on top (like on that Springfield NICE), shorter barrel and, different front sight assemb.
I'm going to make my own but, something to keep in mind for the future. Most of we Huns are doing a late war Stormtroop impression so this would be the rifle of choice for us. Maybe latter if we get to the point where we are doing both late and, early war we might need the Gew.98.

Nice to see you back tommygunner. I think it would be pretty cool if you could make a Finger-grooved Springfield, and maybe even an Enfield (looks like you're already planning that, though.) I think sarco has P17 parts.
