Hi sorry for the late reply. I've been away from this site for some time now.. Robert is a great business man. His products are overall very nice. The gun however, I think was a miss this time around. He realized this, and happily refunded me completely. I don't believe the gun was an accurate representation of his work. All the joints were falling apart and I didn't particularly like the size piping he used, I felt they were way too thin in size. Also, his guns have the acrylic tube set way too far out. Other than that his guns are missing details that would make this gun less than movie accurate. On a positive note however, his lighting kit on the gun was fantastic. And the paint was well done. I also did not like where he placed the vibration motor ( in the gun handle making it impossible to run wires to the pack or connect a split less loom to it for that matter. I went with a fun built by mometaths24 which is mostly built of aluminum and obviously the quality in that case is much stronger and much more movie accurate. I still purchase from zombie, but I think his guns just aren't of the quality and accuracy that I'm looking for.

I really feel bad now, I stuck my neck for this guy. Lucky the only things I ever bought were banjo fittings, clippard hose barbs, clippard brass elbows, basiclly all the little stuff, plus like I said his light kits and a ecto google which isn't too bad but I'm ready for the ready thing now. I've never bought any of this resin stuff.

I actually added his page to the favorite bar...but as always...I go "hmm..lets copy paste this name to the search bar at GBFANS" And what do I see? This. Sad. And after things were pointed out, I referred back to the page...and LOL'd at the halfassery that I did notice since it was put into the light. Saved me some money, or at least, aided me in staying with the GB fans site, and trusted crafters.
