Replica Airguns Store Launches

No Comments

I am happy to announce that Replica Airguns has launched its own Store! For a long time now all I have been able to do was refer other Air Gun and Blank Gun stores for my visitors to purchase products, and to be honest I'm still going to recommend you check out other stores as I can't possibly carry everything and in some cases I may or may not have the best price. I can tell you that I will do my best to supply some very interesting and popular products.

Now our web-store concept is simple, we will have some featured items listed at the top and below that, some of our more popular items we carry broken down into a few categories with links to posts and videos about each product. If you want more information or you want to purchase any item/s simply email us and we will give you a quote on the item/s you are requesting.

Keep in mind we have more products available then we list in our store, so send us an email if you are looking for something specific and we will do our best to accommodate you, or at least refer you to someone who can help you with the product/s you are looking for.

Replica Airguns On the Set of "One Life"

No Comments

Today I had  the opportunity to to work with the production company "Punjabi Sports", they where shooting a full length movie called "One Life" that required some authentic looking prop guns for one of the scenes in the movie. I had a great time and learned a lot about how much is involved in making just a few minutes of final movie footage. I have to say next time I will dress just a bit warmer.

Below are some quick photos I took with my iPhone while on set.

Casio EX FC100 High Speed 1000 Frames Per Second Camera for Christmas

No Comments

All I want for Christmas is a Casio EX FC100 High Speed 1000 Frames Per Second Camera, and I'm getting one!

I know this website is all about Replica Air Guns and Blank Guns but I got to keep up with the Jone's! What I'm trying to say is there are some pretty sweet YouTube videos out there that take advantage of some High-Speed capable cameras that can take video up to as many as 1000 frames-per-second. Even though at that super high frame rate the resolution drops down a lot, you still get to see every single thing that the naked eye can't.

Even with my high end Digital SLR Canon EOS Rebel T2i, that is 60 frames per second capable in High Definition, I'm still not able to really slow the motion down enough to see the real story. That will all soon change...

Thanks to phgHunter, another YouTuber with some air gun interests and a high speed camera of his own, I was introduced to the Casio EX FC100. And if by fate, I received an email today from CanadaComputers.com and just as I was about to throw it in the trash I caught a glimpse of what I though just might be the camera I was looking at. A couple of clicks, wallet openings, credit card security formalities and wham-bam thanks for the camera mam! All for the ridiculously low sale price of only $153.42 shipped and taxed :) Thanks Santa's wallet!

Look forward to my future videos complete with super-slow-mo!

UPDATE: I just got an email from CanadaComputers.com but a week later informing me that I paid $40 too much as it's now on sale for only $89. I sent them an email in hopes that they will reimburse my payment the difference! We'll see what they do...

UPDATE #2: I will not be buying anything else from CanadaComputers.com.

TV, Movie & Film Prop Guns For Hire!

No Comments

I had an idea the other day, Since I have all these Replica Guns and just about any TV show, Movie or even Internet Video that uses guns is going to need guns that look real, why not put my Replica Guns along with myself up for hire!

The first thing one must do with an idea like this is a bit of research to make sure there aren't any major road blocks like the law, and getting thrown in jail, so I called my local RCMP Chief Firearms Officer and we had a talk. Long story short, if I can buy the guns I'm going to be using without a firearms license, then I don't need a Business Firearms License to use my guns on set.

What most large budget TV and Film productions do is a hire a "Gun Wrangler" who is authorized to transport and supervise real steel guns on set - Very Expensive!!!

So with my much lower overhead and next to no red tape I can now offer a large and growing assortment of Replica guns for use on set in TV and Film. Right now I am only offering this in Canada, in the Vancouver and lower mainland areas.

So if you need guns for your TV, Film or Movie - You know who to call - Click on the link for more info on TV, Movie & Film Prop Guns For Hire!
