Bubblearch Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 This has been inspired by the forthcoming Blade Runner sequel. I found the gun itself on eBay and thought it might have alot of potential particularly when you look at the cost of the replicas available online. https://www.flickr.com/gp/147621094@N05/X3yStz the plan is to clean it up and paint it to look like a standard weapon and not the amber handled version Deckard used - more of a standard service pistol used by officers in general I have drilled out all the Allen headed screws and have some stainless replacements to insert. finding the knurled but for the right side might be a bit more challenging. https://www.flickr.com/gp/147621094@N05/i3Sc5X https://www.flickr.com/gp/147621094@N05/69b2QM much filling and sanding required 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neo uk Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Have you got reference for your build ? I've got tons of pictures if you need them ( just got to work out how to send attachments ). The knob you're looking for was originally off a set of gun sights. You never know one might turn up on ebay or car boot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubblearch Posted February 19, 2017 Author Share Posted February 19, 2017 I've just used the web I did find a picture of several on display and one was entirely black including the grip which I think would be much easier to paint. The major difficulty with the movie weapon would be getting a convincing finish on a translucent grip. thanks for the tip I'll see what knobs I can find online Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
