  1. I currently troop with a Sheartech rubber ANH E-11 - It’s durable enough that I don’t feel that I need to be careful with it.

     

    Having said that, i’ve built a few Doopy kits and they’re accurate and cheap as chips in comparison to most ready made blasters. You just need to be a bit more gentle with them, because if you drop them, they will most probably break.

     

    For trooping, though, you can’t beat a rubber or foam blaster IMO

  2. Check “Sheartech” on FB - Excellent solid rubber blasters that you won’t mind the odd knock.

     

    I’ve made a few Doopys kits and you certainly don’t want to give them to randoms to hold.

  3. Neatsfoot oil will soak-in and soften the leather, assuming it is veg tan leather. Once applied, you can bend and work the leather to allow the oil to work its way into the fibres.

     

    If you soak the holster in water, it will inevitably dry-out the leather even more, as some of the natural tanning oils will be washed out, so if you go the moulding route, i’d advise that you also condition the leather after.

    I don’t believe these are approvable in the UKG but I’d need to double check to be sure.

    Nope, they’re smaller than a standard E-11 based on a Sterling. Too many bits and pieces wrong or missing altogether.

    There are much more accurate E-11 kits or even fully assembled for not a huge amount more.
