The acrylic stand was a limited release from QMx.
But, if you join the RPF,
someone or someones have made a version of them available now and again.

The Mal resin gun is a fun build. I did mine a few years back, and have one suggestion that worked well for me. I carefully trimmed off the resin "screws" with a razor blade, then found some antique brass screws at a hardware store to use in their place.
There were two small ones on the front sight, four on top of the frame, and one on each side of the grip. For the paint and metal effects I pretty much followed the directions that came with the model. Good luck!
I aim to misbehave.

Thanks Pengy, I saw it. Too late for me; I already have the kits. But for anyone else I heartily recommend it!!! It looks perfect.

If you really want to get serious, I coud make you a metal copy.
Looks like about a 2,000$ job, more if you want moving parts.
You coud order 5 and make money selling the extras!

No problem.
I hav a hankerin to do sum experiments that coud lead to a practical weapon. The main objectiv iz to get rid uv bullets, or at least minimize their space requirements.
Going to need sumthing for the impending zombie apocalypse anyway, so I shoud get to work soon.

Hello,
It would rock to have a working, firing version of this weapon.
Also, a Lemat converted to fire cartridges.
And I think the Lemat would actually be popular with non-fans.
