If I am not mistaken, Standard is part of Galazan.  They made a 4 barrel pump 12 gauge not long back.

Ah no, My Dear Coffin

it will not pass, I can feed the desire with more images....,

Some of these are actual props
Some are 3-d Printed
some are 3-D digital "renderings" ie  pictures....

somehow, there are insane inspired people out there with more time and money than sense
making shit stuff props out of airsoft toys, denix toys, clay, plastic, metal ... and the interwebs just seem to offer a feeding frenzy!
Most, I think are Fantasy and SF freaks fans and the like. When i was young I had enough denaro to fund the monthly
 "Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction" ( as well as Shooting Times and Guns and Ammor) but that was about it!

No money to waste on trying to build "props" Eating and rent were more important
and there weren't that many  SciFi conventions ....
 
Altho I did  fund a home-sewn kilt and made my own Dagger and Bowie and  Dirk and Sgein Dugbh out of files and bar stock... and a caplock rifle... and a hawk... and ...
went to Feast of The Hunters Moon, and some Rondys , and ... ..
Oh....

Anyway here is some more eye candy.













And Look, here's a Lemat

I am going to preface this post, by saying that I like a challenge. That out of the way, I was asked to make a holster for the doubleshot Thunderstruck. Going to sit down with the man tomorrow, to discuss his wants. I have on numerous occasions, have said that I can make a holster for any gun.

Time to see if that is true.

I just don't see any of these--the monstrosity from Standard or even the fantasy guns--taking the place of Hillberg's COP 357 derringer. 

These things were like a Mossberg Brownie that grew up, or a sawed-off Lancaster.  Striker-fired DA, 4 shots, and at one time custom-made speedloaders were actually available (from a guy in Nevada IIRC).   Weight was around 28-30 ounces, and nicely balanced for use as a skull-cracker.  Carried nicely in a coat pocket too. 

I had one for a while, it was actually much better than the press reports would have you believe.  Infinitely better than the High Standard derringer it replaced. 

Edited to add: I think, since it was used in Blade Runner, it would qualify for the Space Aliens Shooting Society.

Edited again to ask, "Why does everyone want to shoot Aliens?  Are we running out of Cowboys??"

Probably,  Someone somewhere has their panties in a wad over it....

I mean with " Indigenous persons" , all upset there no "Cowboy's VS Indians or redskins any more

Employee's of the Bovine industry & " Indigenous persons" or or First Nations

and now it is no longer illegals'  or  illegal aliens  its  "undocumented" persons

But alas the thread drifts ....
The subject is  hair brain butt ugly designs or those so abstract they come full circle to cool  I:E Steam punks  ;D
