Hi Lehr Chang,

There are a few white metal parts mixed in with resin but basically you are correct, grey is white metal and the off white is resin. What is missing, as I was being a Muppet when I laid all this out, is the photo etched brass tool clamp for the pick axe, the white plastic channel for filling in the Breech handle, if you cut it as I did, and the rear notek light.

This is has now been corrected. We had an issue with one piece that came to light at the weekend and involved a PTFE insert still in the master and not in its mould but the two pieces are being recast and should be with me tomorrow or Wednesday. This meant we had a solid lump of white metal between two arms of a fork. The recasts will have a nice clear gap and no one will be cursing me and trying to figure out how long it will take to file out!

I am working out postage prices to the various destinations and will be notifying everyone who pre-ordered over the next day or so.

Best regards

Hi All,

Thank you to those who have already paid postage, your parcels are going out tomorrow. Still have a couple who have paid but waiting on address details. The rest of the pre orders will ship once postage payments received.

I am going to hold off general release until after War and Peace as I just have too much to do over the next fortnight. PAK 43's sets will be available to general order from 1st August.

Best regards

Dave
