To all P99 fans in the UK.
Just been talking to Brocock, they are trying to get the Walther Umarex P99 to UK spec. They are having a meeting with Umarex to negotiate a price for a new machine to make UK spec barles which cant be drilled out, which is what the UK Proofing House wants, but this will increase the retail price a bit! these guns will have a blue top slide.

    The butchery that happens when converting the PAK P99 to a vertical port is extensive, with great big cuts made to the slide and barrel. If I were you I'd buy a deactivated one. No ugly slide cuts and port, and no flourescent slide.

    If Brocock manage to find a better way of cutting the slides and barrel for the port, more the better, but the ones I have seen to date... :#

    You can remove the fluorescent paint on replicas with alcohol based medical wipes.

    It takes some time but it comes clean eventually.

    Be careful on some other painted surfaces and on some plastic components. The alcohol could dull the paint or mark the plastic.

    Test a small area first (perhaps on the magazine or hidden up by the trigger guard).

    Of course this may make the replica not strictly legal . . . but you are all grown ups aintcha?
