They should have been proofed in Germany .

If it has UK proofs on it ...................... I would ask why .

I believe from a quick search on Facebook this relates to "Oceania Defence"

Nice to see more competition in the LBP market in the UK, however it looks like they literally stuck a tube on the front for the barrel and a coat hanger on the rear.....

and messing around with their shop page, you can add options such as

Machined slide to accept a red dot
Round Faux Suppressor

add those to the basic price and your up to £1041.

personally think it looks better with a faux suppressor rather than the tube for a barrel.

The coathanger was loose when I handled it at the Phoenix .

I was on the verge of ordering one, but, after looking at the reviews of the non-LBP version the sleeved barrel put me off.

Mine is having a ported barrel and faux supressor so will need proofing over here.
