The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

there is no cheap remington im afraid.
your best bet is to find yourself a Maruzen M870 gas shotgun and use that. Theres a lot of work involved in cutting it up, so you'd need to be fairly competent with dismantaling gas airsoft weapons. You'd also need a real steel Spas12 cage to fit it in, which isnt cheap either.

If you buy the shotty from England, expect to pay £200 - £250. I imported mine from Hong Kong, and paid £150. Either way you need to be UKARA registered/have a defence for the VCRA.

What Rich said!

You could look for a deac shottie, but from experience most deacs will be unable to cycle a round and are bloody expensive. I went with the airsoft route, much cheaper and works perfectly.

I was ultimately quoted £380 for an Airsoft shop to import one from Japan.

You almost certainly come under different regulations being on the Isle of Man than us poor souls here on "the adjacent island" ;)
Real Firearms restrictions are far more sensible over there so I should think that Airsoft rules are too but not sure where you'd find out though?

Where on the island are you? I have a second cousin in St Johns! :)
