Would anyone know if the company that builds WW II replicas, Gate Guards UK, is still in business? I have made several attempts to call, but could not be connected. Thank you.

You might try sending a private message to T6flyer. The last word he posted on Gate Guards was they were in the process of moving about 5 mos ago. He might have a better contact possibility. Good luck!

As of Oct. last year, they appear to have closed the business down, that's not to say that somebody hasn't bought the assets of the company and started trading under a new name.
