It would have to be dry cured poly, and would work out roughly £3 in material each one for the poly, so think I'll get a 1000 gramme tub, and experiment, as only £10, but if bought in bulk much cheaper, just shows how much profit is in poly!!
He's just moved units, and was sorting through moulds etc, he has to make the imitation guns in blue now, as only legal colour, but has moulds for claymore mines, hand grenades, rifles, armour, smg, etc etc, fascinating it was.

They take a fair while to wear out though don't they? Or are you thinking of changing your M2C one already?
