I saw this on FB also. Looks pretty cool for those who might be doing something that used this gun.

Take a look at this, very interesting images of the gun in the lsm - forum.
The pictures have been posted by the "builder" of the 3d printed Becker Gun.

Whilst I'd like to get one or two of these guns, the shipping costs is dulling my interest.

Would anyone living in the NSW (Newcastle/Sydney/Wollongong) area be interested joining in a "group" buy to split the shipping costs?

FYI: No. of ordered items doesn't seem to affect shipping cost.

Thanks Dave & Des - I'll wait until the w/e to put the order thru. If there is anyone else in AU that would like to join in the group buy and doesn't mind paying postage, let me know.

Out of curiosity how much is it to ship a gun to NSW?  To ship to the US it's less than $5.00....$4.99  ;)
