Keystone Arsenal Replicas

Q: Are your Guns Plastic?

A: Generally speaking no. KAR does not like Plastic! However, some movie guns that need to be super cheap will be either constructed of plastic or resin. These guns are restricted to our "Resin" page, or notated as "Resin". The material of our guns is never disguised, but 98% of everything we have is all metal.

Q: Are any of your guns PFC (Plug Fire Cap) guns?

A: Right now, no. PFC guns are guns that cycle 1, 2, or 3 piece brass shells that are loaded individually with caps that fire and cycle the action. These "Caps" use a type of powder/propellant that is corrosive to both metal and plastic. They require much cleaning and vigilant maintenance. They are also very "Quiet" compared to a real blank firing only gun. Sometimes these are called "Blank guns" but that is a misnomer. A PFC gun is not a true blank gun, not even close, and does not provide enough satisfaction, if used as intended, to justify the maintenance. They are also in general, "Jam Prone". That's why KAR will always try to avoid these guns.
