Hey guys :D
I had a strange happening today at our local custom office. It was about Rooks MK. The custom officer pushed for opening the package. While I was sweating whereas I unpacked the Revolver(Germany and wapeons #-o ), the officer made jokes like "and where is the amunation?" I was totally sure that he would´nt hand it out to me, but slowly I noticed, that he was interested in it. I told him, that this revolver is a replica of the one which was used by Indiana Jones in LC and KOTCS.
Two seconds of silence, then he began asking me where to get one and where I´m going to watch the premiere :shock:
He avowed himself as a real Indy fan, collecting stuff for many years...I was flabbergasted :shock: :shock:
Half an hour of Indy conversation followed, before I left the building with Rooks great Webley. Now I´m really really ready for the premiere, thanks Rook, thank you very much :!: :!:

Max,

Dang! That is one sweet piece of heat you are packing! I am so glad I got on Rook's list for the second run. He definitely outdid himself!!

Mind if I ask where you picked up the holster from?

Thank you all for the kind words :wink:
My Webley holster is just three years old, but through the shoting of my film etc. it looks now like hundred years :? I don´t mind :wink:
I just know this replica, sometimes you can find it on ebay, I´m sry, but I don´t know who is the producer #-o

I have to say that looks great and a COA with it as well. Can't wait - great story by the way. Nice to have a friend in customs - you never know!
