    Ik heb eerst de M1garand,de Mp40 en de M1928Al("Tommiegun) alle drie tegelijk..Ik kom uit Nederland maar moest ze daar ophalen.Geen probleem.
    1 Week later heb ik opgebeld of hun de Ak-47 en de M16A1 kondenbestellen voor mij .
    deze vriendelijke Belg heeft dat via Denix Mennora geregegeld.Helaas was grens Nederland/Belgie dicht door corona..maar na 2 weken toch naar Belgie gereden (vlakbijGent)...2 uur en kwartier....En heb de wapens opgehaald!.Aangezien ik in scheinding lig en mijn spullen bij een vriend in zijn garage mag zetten kwam ik aan met mijn auto bij zijn garage...ik had enkel gezegd dat ik wat inboedel voor nieuwe huisje had gekocht!Hij deed autoklep open en ipv van bijv.magnetron of bestekdoos hield hij met schrik de AK-47 omhoog en stotterde:ga jij een bank ofzoiets overvallen???

    The Denix company produce amongst the finest reproduction weapons in the market at an extremely competitive price. Here in the UK, the options for re-enactors, collectors and enthusiasts is a weapon deactivated to the current EU legal requirement which is very expensive and quite often the weapon will not cock and dry fire, meaning you pay £600 - £700 for what is effectively a display item!

    Denix fills this gap in the market nicely by offering near perfectly matching in every detail replicas at 20% of the cost of a deactivated model!

    I have purchased several Denix models and I am a big fan of the brand - I can safely say that they deliver fast, the weapons are durable, reliable and above all are very aesthetically pleasing whether on display or part of a collection.

    I don’t personally own this replica but it has been in my sights for quite some time now. I’ve always love the M16 variants but the A1 is by far my most favorite. It just looks good and has that nostalgic feeling to it. I’m currently in the NROTC program at a university and we have decommissioned Vietnam era M16A1’s which we use for drill. I’m not allowed to own and use those but if I get picked for this giveaway then I will be able to use it and drill with it.
