Thank you dude!!!!
For the record, I have access to tons of LIVE guns, but I don't routinely check out the latest and greatest blank only 'replica' guns. There is been an explosion of them lately (I wonder why). I guess a lot of productions are just buying those and using them (with CGI gun flashes put in later) rather than getting real guns from us armorers.
The real gun armorer industry is dying. We're used very rarely any more
There will come a time when we're completely gone and everything out there is a fake (and thus not subject to any rules or regulations).
