nomi Report post Posted May 17, 2007 Someone posted this on a mail list, a guy on ebay is selling gun molds for making holsters. Has quite a few up for bid at the moment. http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQfrppZ50QQfsooZ...0QQsassZkzturbo - Noel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AKRob Report post Posted June 14, 2007 Thanks for the source. LEt's see if he produces anything but G-17/22s In the mean time the only other source that I am aware of is Duncan's Outdoors shop http://www.duncansoutdoor.com/about.htm I have also used Red Guns for molds with good results.

K-Man Report post Posted June 15, 2007 All of those dummy guns that he has/had came from Duncan's. They're from the early days when Duncan's used to provide an excellent replica. I stopped buying from Duncan's over a year ago because of the poor quality that they now provide. I bought five of the aluminum guns from the guy mentioned above on eBay. It was a positive transaction. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AKRob Report post Posted June 15, 2007 I just picked up three more in April, they were fine. I have 20 of there aluminum guns one was delivered with a broken hammer, but otherwise OK. They do seem disorganized and the very nice gal on the phone new very little about guns and barrle lengths. They sure beat buying the real thing for every new model. Still, I am looking for an alternative. Ireally like to be able to cast my own from plastic and end up with a solid chunk of plastic like a Red Gun to build around.

nomi Report post Posted June 15, 2007 I wonder if movie props of guns would work. I know they're fairly close to the right size and such. - Noel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AKRob Report post Posted June 15, 2007 http://www.reddiamondonline.com/SearchResu...20guns&All=True these are the same thing as the prop guns made for police traing they work fine. Rob Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
K-Man Report post Posted June 15, 2007 AKRob: You're correct - the price for the dummy gun is far better than what you would pay for a genuine version (~$45 vs ~$450). The quality of the detail on the Duncan aluminum guns has declined dramatically. If you're not molding holsters with a great amount of detail, then it's not as much of an issue. We mold ours with a fair amount of detail, so the Duncan guns (newer versions) do not work for us. A word of caution on the Red guns - they've got a history of being "out of spec." I've only got one of the red guns, and it's worked fine for me. nomi: The movie prop guns are certainly a possibility. I've used a couple of them myself. They average about $100 in cost, and are usually set up to fire blanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
