Default Mick Reeves Models contact problem

Does anyone know what is up with Mick Reeves Models. I've tried to order from them twice now and get no response. I followed their internet instructions to the letter. This past week I tried again and requested a "read receipt". Best I can tell they haven't even read my email yet.

I'm in need of a 1/3 Vickers gun if anyone has one.

Maybe he's on vacation or something. He runs a very small shop from what I understand. Keep trying. His service is fast to the states too.

mick could be out flying in competitions, hes a great guy to deal with, i have the 1/3 camel kit of his and its top notch.
the 1/3 vickers did leave a bit to be desired but on a camel most of it is hidden anyway. i have also built one from busa and it leaves a bit to be desired also. i sure wish williams bros would come out with one in this scale

I have the ArizonaModels 1/3 Vickers kit coming now; but don't look forward to putting that together - yes, Williams needs a 1/3 vickers and Lewis []

Has anyone had any contact with MRM in the past three or four weeks. I still have not been able to make any contact with them. Do they close for weeks at a time, or the whole summer?

I received the Arizona Models Vickers gun kit and as far as I'm concerned the thing is worthless (incomplete instructions, dozens of small parts, instrutions that refer you to an unreadable print of real gun measurements to determine scale sizing, etc, etc).

"I received the Arizona Models Vickers gun kit and as far as I'm concerned the thing is worthless"

I did that once; found out that I was better off designing myself, and contracting out the laser cutting.

I see MR has responded in kind. Nice folks, nice products and well worth any wait! I have two of their 1/4 Camels and Bleriot plans set.
