Honeywell 30mm
Aerojet 30MM
Vulcan 20mm

I will be replicating these realworld peices by CNC Machining and Anodizing. I will have a batch set aside for WT Folks Custom Engraved.

For those Interested let me know.

I will have a Tp slug available too. Im still debating on how i want to do the plastic part of the Bullet. (throat wear protector) I may insert mold those or just do those as a sub assembly that will snap in place of the groove. A more realistic Profile representation, I think is what everyone would liek to have.

I would be interested also. By the way the technical term for the plastic part is "Rotating Band".

I'd be interested in some, give a cost and ordering info and we might be able to set something up with the squadron for plaques and such. I'd like a few myself too.

As soon as my New CNC lathe Hits the floor, I'll be manufacturing them <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

I wont have any pricing until after the first Articles are machined, polished, Anodized/alodine and painting is done.

I have been working on some custom features Specific to Differnt heirarchy recipients. Some of these special features will not be available to Civilians-Non Service Vets.

Those folks will recieve external Profile only, as I dont want the BATF knocking on my door because some redneck cracker decided he wanted a 30mm salute going off in the trailerpark and kills Ma's chicken and yard gnomes.... You get the idea. I am not going to be manufacturing ammunition or something to be used as such.
