Williams Brothers machine guns ?
Hi all . . .
I don't build WW I stuff, but . . .
I thought I read somewhere that Williams Brothers folded up shop, and that seemed to cause a bit of grief for folks looking for WW I type machine guns, etc.
Maybe someone who is familiar with the WB machine guns could look to see if [link=http://www.hppilots.com/gpage28.html]these[/link] look familiar.
Might be suitable replacements for the Williams Brothers guns, maybe not, I dunno.
EDIT: I sent Roy Seals at HPPilots a query, but haven't received an answer yet.
FWIW.

RE: Williams Brothers machine guns ?
Got a reply from Roy Seals at HP Pilots today.
The machine guns are indeed Williams Brothers units, he has a _few_ left in stock, and did not acquire the molds.
He did opine that he believes WB are trying to sell their business as is.
Sounds like it's time to put Dave Platt's 'Theory of Scarfology' into practice . . .
