Bailey Morris. They make then for many of the people to sell on. That is where Gwyn Lewis was buying his from and assume still is.

Just go to Gwyn Lewis, the best you’ll find. 99% sure that the Bailey Morris ones are just “copies” of gwyns old ones, hence he now uses alternative suppliers

In short.

BM supplied Gywn.

They had an arguement. BM refused to sell to Gywn

Gywn found an alternate supplier... Instagram @defender_ventures

what was the argument about, BM ones not up to Gwyn's spec? Or they wanted too much ££? Cheers

Arguement about pricing I believe. Considering Gywn was buying BM props painting em blue and tacking on 30% ... Instagram @defender_ventures

Not quite as simple as that, BM made them to gwyns exact spec not just an off the shelf wide angle. Hence why BM ones are now just copies of gwyns old spec props

Think the story varies depending on who you speak to.

But to answer the original question you get good props from Gwyn Lewis or Bailey Morris Thumbs Up Thumbs Up

Thanks

Curious as to what difference the Britpart versions are to these in terms of quality? Prices are not to dissimilar.
