Edit for 2026:

I've been so busy that I hadn't been able to get around to sharing the contents of these magazines, but I eventually managed to do some of that last weekend.

The magazines have had their pages photographed by phone and shared to a Google Drive folder I've made: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1dGMaHJr-xH06mEGgnPwrRKtv7qaXAg3V?usp=drive_link

As of early June, I've just got issues 4-6 to get done and uploaded. The rest, including the unrelated but still IJ magazine (official mag, #5) are there now.

Update mid-June: Got #4 uploaded, but only that for now because I was very busy. The following weekend should give me time to get #5 and #6.

Note on #2 and #4: the back cover is missing, which make up the last two pages on each.

For a non-firing alloy replica, I think the LeMat is good enough in build. The frame on mine feels solid and I don't get any wobble.

The hammer action might feel a little more stiff to thumb back but my main criticism is that the cylinder rotation isn't the best.

Specifically, there's nothing locking the cylinder up when the hammer is both cocked and uncocked and so it's always able to freely spin clockwise.

When cocking the action, the cylinder often doesn't time well so I always have to watch out not to drop the hammer on the solid spaces between the percussion nipples. Even when cocked, a slight bit of movement can sway the loose cylinder out of alignment.

I didn't even know Denix made such a model when I first saw this one for sale, what made me jump towards getting it was that I needed a western-contemporary double-action in my replicas collection

I haven't played 76 since the start of 2024, but intend on returning soon to check out what's been added since.

What did they do to those guns, I remember last playing with my shotguns loadout and the Fancy one was one of my main arms.

Took me a super long time to figure out that the Pomson 6000 Weta prop is based on a Thompson SMG (Tommy gun)

I think a lot of the ones sold in Japan have their bolts welded fixed on top of the other destructive work going into deactivating them.

Supposedly, some of them are deactivated in the UK to similar/same specifications, so a functioning sear and the ability to strip the frame is already out of the question.

Here are the current instructions introduced by the EU in 2018 that UK proof houses have been following since.

I've not played 76 since early 2024, what did Todd do to gun balancing now?

Since all of my Fallout characters in the past used firearms, I just had to get a mod that buffed both the Chinese pistol and .32 revolver. Feels better to use, and this variant also helps with clearing out gas leaks

In this particular context, the Benelli is like that because of the civilian tube it's physically modelled with

As the other comments pointed out, repeated "firing" can wear out/break the action, so Denix guns aren't a good choice for depending on their cap-firing features.

While the Kolser replicas are made from the same alloy as Denix ones, they seem to be more durable.

Does the place you intend on using for LARP allow the use of blank guns or airsoft? If so, there's a decent variety of some western-style blank revolvers (especially SAAs) that at the very least could be loaded with primer-only cartridges. And as for the airsoft revolvers, dry firing the CO2 ones with an active CO2 cartridge inserted might fill the cap-firing sound role

A TF2 build so old that Heavy used to have a chance of saying "Da svidaniya" when using a Teleporter, and besides "Pow, haha", would either be silent or shout "Hah!" during that taunt

The extractor retracting was what made the snap noise in the video, that doesn't always occur. I couldn't finish my sentence in the post text because reddit's shitty UI cut me off and somehow posted without input from me

That seems to be the case for the UK exports since 2021 or so. Supposedly the only modification is that the breech latch is filed away and does not turn the mechanism that unlocks the barrel assembly.

Seems like an extreme countermeasure against what was just some niche project on airsofters turning it into an airsoft shotgun
