I'll second that.

Any chance of having at least pics posted here to look at? High detail ones w/ close ups would work best.

I sent you an email, but didn't get a response. Not that I expected one right away.... But, just in case my hotmail email address was filtered out as junk mail, I thought I'd post my interest here. So. Yeah. Definitely interested. Don't need all the specifics - I imagine you want to protect your work so others don't replicate your replica - but some of the more "generic" details might come in handy for those wanting to purchase from you. For example: What it's made from, fabrication scale, overall sturdiness, estimated weight, moving action or not, etc. I doubt many folks would want to purchase something completely sight unseen, especially if it has a decent price tag attached.

preacher book why i do declaire.......
ok yes i got several emails and i will reply to them all at presant i have no way to get the pics of the gun of my camera i was waiting for my brother to have a look at the docking port but he was unable to do anything so i have to wait till friday (when i get payed) to go buy a new one.
any way in responce to some of your questions its made out of solid resin as slush casting often sags or blows out it has metal powder in it and waighs just over a kelo there are no moveing parts on it
the unfinished one comes in 4 pieces and is an off white colour i use a very good quality resin not just some crapy stuff from home depot
i also cast everything in a vack machine so you will always get good castings with no bubbles
thats about it till friday when i get my new docking port i will send pics to every one that emailed me and i will put some up here to

Any updates on the pistols SloppyJon? I am eager to see what you have to offer.

Also, something else for your consideration. Relpicas of Mal's or Jayne's (or both) would sell very well at Dragon Con next year. If you can not make it, I would be happy to take samples to show at the Browncoat table & sell for you. Anything to help out a fellow Browncoat.

Anyone received one of these replicas yet?

speaking as an avid weapons collector, the pistol looks pretty cool. i'd be interested in buying one. how much would one cost, including delivery to ireland? also, would you be by any chance making a replica of 'vera', jane cobbs favourite weapon. i'd definitly pay for that weapon.

Thanks to Jon,

I now own a lovely reproduction

It`s just under 13" long & just under 5" tall & 1.5" at the widest point(on the main body)

I don`t know how this compares with the real thing, I have big hands and it`s a comfortable hold, maybe `Mal` has smaller hands which makes the grip look bigger.

They are more than worth it, and if I hadn`t got a personal item already at the Serenity Con, mine would have been signed by the Captain (Now there`s a good reason to get one!)

If you haven`t seen me in my Captain`s get-up checkout the Bluesun item - http://www.fireflyfans.net/sunroomitem.asp?i=3514 & http://www.fireflyfans.net/sunroomitem.asp?i=3513 - the prop gun, really adds to it all. BWAH!

Darin (Zol.)

p.s. Good to finally get to catch up with Sloopy (all but briefly)

p.p.s. Sloopy, Would you like to have a few made & possible sold at the Memorabelia show in August? (Birmingham NEC August 13th-14th) - There will be a fan table there and a Shindig is planned for probably the 13th too. You would be welcome to help out and it would a great chance to show some of your wares - Contact Slayerfest/FadetoBlack for more details or comeback to me)

Twas a fine costume indeed. I saw it many a time in passing at the con ;)

And a fan table and shindig at Memorabilia sounds like a mighty fine reason to go!
