Been meaning to post this here for a while and finally got around to it :)
This is a build I started in May of this year for a group project we did for the movie mania event at the NSC which we completed in September. As I was building all the armour too i had to put this on hold till all that was done and do a basic build at the event.
this was a joint project with judge west here who did all the plans for this . These went through many changes as more pics became available as did the build.
Its based around a glock 17 as the actual prop was and I started with a cheap airsoft springer with the intention of adding a gas or electric blowback version later.

Here's an early pic of the first parts . this was mostly scrapped as more pics appeared but some made it through !

I rebuilt the mag housing and added the rear and piece behind the grip
Posted Image
Posted Image
This is the point where it was put aside until the event where I did a basic build and Judge west added all his cool electronics , LCD screen , light up superbright LED barrel and sounds B)
Posted Image
Posted Image
After the event I stripped it down completely and began a more accurate build with the intension of using the master to make molds from. I also wanted the masters to fit snuggly around the airsoft glock so the blowback feature could be achieved as in the movie.
First revisions

Side view progress

I got to a point where I needed the Blowback glock so went for a gas version as they seemed to have a faster and more realistic action . I had to make a few slight changes but it fitted in well and was virtually the same size as the springer.
Posted Image
I then worked on the rear slide and built a basic block to test out the blowback action

heres a vid of it in action

top sights left to do and the section with the lettering on. Will need to look into getting it laser cut I think to get it looking right.

Looks absolutely spot on...I'm hoping to finally get the jacket done for the lid in the next week as I have a dry warm place to work for a while now :-)

Awesome Darren :) we can never have enough judges on the streets :) I'm doing all the armour , masters all made just gotta sort out some new molds and Mav is doing lids and badges.
Need to make a few more parts like the buckles and boot add ons but we should have a pretty accurate version to offer soon :)

Ill do you a swap for a dc15 if your up for it :)
