That's a beauty! What about a commemorative medallion in the grip? I have a real one that I built close to 30 years ago. Shoots like crazy!

How about a nice pic of that grip?

I am not sure exactly what he has planned

i actually havnt sat down to decide my textures yet. a pic would be nice.
i went ahead and built the presentation case, with caps tin, powder flask, and 2 types of bullits and powder charge that can be loaded. i have the bullit mold tool left to do.

Very nice, Nothing. The realism is uncanny!

Stev0 · 09-25-2008, 08:24 AM

Working hinges too?

Nothing · 09-25-2008, 09:04 AM

yes the hinges will work, although they wont look like the real hinges.

Nothing you work is beautiful!

I have a friend who used to have a "51". He let me fire it a couple of times, very cool! Please tell me you will at least release the pistol here on the forum.

I would absolutely love to build your model! Keep up the astounding work. You have inspired me to at least learn Meta so I can design and contribute here.

Thank You,

Todd
