Afternoon everyone,
I’ve been looking around the web on gas simulation, trying to find out what the law is on it all? Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

James, are you talking about using gas to simulate firing? There are some with those, including 1st Panzer with an MG 34 - https://wwiireenactmentsouthwest.co.uk/oxwall/user/1stPanzer
Rose might be able to help with that. At WWIIRESW we have an insurance policy that about 70 of us buy in to for Public Liability, personal accident and kit insurance - https://wwiireenactmentsouthwest.co.uk/oxwall/groups/8

Yes, I was looking at making the Bren a simulate fire. Got most of the bits at work. Just wondering what the law was? Ok, I will buy into that public liability.

No law around it as it does not fire projectiles! however you do need to be a reenactor with insurance as it is a replica firearm if you don't want it to have orange painted on it!
We run ours off a large oxygen bottle and a propane bottle - these fit into the sidecar but we also have boxes so it is able to be put in a trench.
It actually sounds ok, I've included a link to our you tube video - and has been really reliable as long as you play with the mixture a little at first which can vary depending on the temperature. There's no limit to how much you can fire it - except for heat build up!
Also - don't stand in front of it haha!
If you are coming to Armed Forces Day at Davidstow you can have a go on it :-)

That’s awesome, I love it.
Thank you very much for that. Chris has sent the link for the insurance side. I’m hopefully get time soon to knock it all up in the workshop at work.

I looked over the insurance, the only problem is a person to verified member.
