NOTICE TO ALL THEATRE AND FILM PRACTICIONERS

If you have any blank firing weapons in your possession, better make sure it is not the Olympic .38 BB.  This prop is to be banned from today.


This blank firer has become the new gun of choice in gang warfare.  Criminals have readily converted a large number of the Olympic .38 BB to fire live ammunition. Thus it is being re-designated as a prohibited weapon and possession of it could result in a five year jail term.

A targeted amnesty ran until June 4, allowing everyone who had bought Olympics legally to hand them in to police stations, thus offering a route to dispose of these firearms without facing prosecution for possession.

Since I don’t really fancy a five year jail sentence, I have organized a huge searching party and managed to find 22 of them in our stock. It was heartbreaking to part with them… but now I’m looking forward to a shopping spree to replace them!
