Father Small and his Emporium

After over a decade worth of learning and gaining airsoft engineering knowledge, repair experience and motivated by my own massive disappointment in larger manufacturers that know better and are capable of producing better examples of Airsoft engineering excellence however by abandoning simplicity, increasing the complexity and increasing uncontrolled variables leading to poor out of the box performance necasating the need for upgrade parts.
So I created the Emporium.
The Emporium has three Key standards:
Airsoft first by design.
My designs will not be replicas of anything where the focus is of Airsoft ballistics and performance as such for the most part the ergonomics will be to maximise airsoft guns as a form and will probably more closely resemble bespoke rifles.
Dont reinvent the wheel.
Where applicable use well established ancillaries or husbandry of well proven airsoft engineering or completely abandoning standards set by other manufacturers. for example Bucking's, Barrels, magazines many other parts that are a well established series of excellent Standardised components.
Learn from others past
To not repeat the mistakes of previous manufactures and not purposefully create a hostile user/owner environment. My designs sadly are unique for the best part, but spares will be kept available or made public in the case of fully retired articles.
The emporium is a place for me to create without restriction to be able to pursue any projects in the skunkworks freely, I have been working on Various ideas with increasing focus over the last two years and am finally beginning to satisfy my own demanding Standards for quality and durability, Sadly for the time Being I will have no choice but to start with 3d printed examples but wish to move on to Injection moulded and machined parts tightening the tolerances, reducing or removing unnecessary parts and increasing the ballistic accuracy and operational lifespan without complex maintenance procedures.

Who is Father Small

Father Small is a mysterious man thought by some to be immortal. Know to some as the Mad Priest tales of this man have proliferated for millenia. Some claim to have seen cave paintings depicting his moustacioed visage deep in the rural caves of Wales tho little evidence is presented to support this. Thoughout history this mysterious man is always found in service of nobles and gentry supplying inventions and creations to the highest bidder- but always mysteriously missing when those particular gentry are found wanting (often for a head). In the modern era Father Small has emerged as an independant purveyour of fine defensive goods available to the every man. His goals, however, are unknown.

Father Smalls Wares

The Cane Gun

a simple but fearsome one shot Hold out weapon disguised as a Walking aid it is capable of engaging opponents at short and medium range without much practice it is also capable of being armed discreetly, loading however is not, using APS shells are the most effective.

Single Barrel Shotgun

A simple shotgun that uses APS shells, Having seen a gap in the market where for a cheap means of using the highly effective aps shells and researching Competing designs and seeing some short comings I designed my own take on it using 3D printed parts for the main construction and Manufactured parts for the ware and power train components. the focus was light ergonomics and Reliability, there is no safety so do be carful once loaded.

Double Barrelled Shotgun

A simple Double shotgun that uses APS shells, Using the ground work from the Single barrel Shotgun also using the highly effective aps shells this is after seeing the sheer expense of comercial examples I designed my own also 3D printed parts for the main construction and Manufactured parts for the ware and power train components some of which it shares with the Single barrel shotgun. the focus of design being a representation of an over under 12g, Reliability and effective use of the available characteristics of the APS shell. There is no safety do be carful once loaded.

And much more besides -Under wraps and carefully guarded-
