    Two prop makers, one back room

    MAG owner Charles Taylor opened a build shop to make rubber guns for MAG’s inventory — one stop to rent firearms, armourers and rubber guns. It started as two prop makers in the back of the old Hand Prop warehouse.

  2. 2020

    Lenworth Drive

    Over the COVID shutdown we moved into our current building on Lenworth Drive, alongside The Prop Studio prop rental service.

  3. Today

    A full build shop

    Five full-time prop builders, 3D modelling and printing, CNC and milling. We’ve made props for Netflix and Amazon productions such as The Umbrella Academy, The Boys and Reacher — and grown from rubber guns into stunt props and custom hero builds.
