This topic made me thinking... exactly how many prop replica guns í own. I lost count a couple of years ago. So, today I made a list and some photographs. And some quick repairs while I was at it.
This list is very varied. There's some airsoft replicas in there as well. I only listed the props I could use in an emergency on an event. I have more toys, resin kits and whatbot lying around, that still need to be worked into an actual prop, so those I didn't count.
01: Bryar MkI
First prop I ever made. Based on the Bryar pistol from "Star Wars: Dark Forces." Modified metal toy pistol.
02: DPLX-3 "Lizzie"
Locally world famous super-stove-tube.
Originally, I built it from scratch, to be used in a Star Wars fanfilm we're working on, but it came on screen in an official short film before that: "Reboot 57". Between takes, the bazooka was held for promotional pictures, by an extra named Elisabeth (short "Lizzie"), who was only as tall as the weapon standing on its nose onto the floor. Hence the nickname. During pick-ups, we made a rig on the spot, (in the woods) so the bazooka could fire an explosive charge. 't Was simple but effective.
03: Merr-Sonn CR-27 flame-thrower
Also originally conceived as a heavy weapon for stormtroopers in our fanfilm. Like "Lizzie", it made its first appearnace in "Reboot 57". Built from scratch.
04: KV-99 light gatling blaster
Another prop meant for the fanfilm. Modified toy.
05: M41A pulse rifle
Resin kit from Spat.
06: P90PDW
Correct P90 as used in "Stargate SG1" and "Stargate Atlantis". Tokyo Marui AEG
07: P90TR
Much cheaper P90 version. Well AEG
08: MP5A5
Very close to screen-accurate, as in "Stargate SG1". Classic arms, with both CA and TM accessories. Needs just a little more work.
09-10: MP5K
Specifically bought for Neo, lobby scene, "The matrix". Cheap spring, but all metal.
11-12: Vz61 Skorpion
Neo, "The matrix". Tokyo Marui spring.
13-14: Micro UZI
Neo, "The matrix" Spring. Don't remember the make.
15-16-17-18-19-20-22: Beretta 92FS
6 for Neo in "The matrix" and 1 as spare weapon with the MP5A5, "Stargate SG1". 6x UGC spring and 1x TM spring.
21: Beretta 93MR
Robocop (Auto 9) Extremely cheap knock-off ($5)
23: Packered mortar launcher
"Star Wars: Dark forces", made for the fanfilm.
24: "Stouker" Concussion rifle
"Star Wars: Dark forces". Originally made as a test prototype for the fanfilm, but became so damn popular that I ended up keeping it. Some reinforcements and modifications later, still very popular scratch-built prop.
25: A280
"Star Wars: Return of the Jedi" Resin kit from Richies Armor.
26: G36C
Spring version. Don't remember the make.
27: DDC Defender
Leia Organa's blaster from "Star Wars: Return of the Jedi". Resin kit
28-29: DDC Protector
Based on Leia's blaster, but scratchbuilt for the fanfilm.
30: DL-44
Han Solo's blaster uit "Star Wars: Return of the Jedi". Movie-accurately built on a Denix Mauser.
31: DL-69
"Star Wars: episode I" Modified toy blaster.
32: E-11
Screen-accurate version, built on a real Sterling L2A3. "Star Wars: A new hope".
33: E-11
Heavily modified Star Tours blaster. "Star Wars: A new hope"
34: Double barreled shotgun
35: Ivory
36: Ebony
Dante, "Devil may cry 1, 2, 3 and probably 4 as well". Ebony & Ivory are heavily modified toy guns and the shotgun is a repainted and slightly adapted spring version.
37: Security S-5
Padmé Amidala and the Royal Naboo Palace guards, "Star Wars: The phantom menace". Modified toy blaster.
38: DCK 1X "Thor"
39: LV-004 "Rancor"
40: KA-985
3 own concepts, for the fanfilm.
41-42: Tenloss DXR-10B disruptor rifles
Conversions of laser tag toys, for the fanfilm.
43: Super P8, Modified USP
Lara Croft, in every "Tomb Raider" movie + Selene in every "Underworld" movie. Cyma spring version, but still needs modifications.
44: M56 smartgun
Wooden base gun, which still needs many modifications.
45: MG15 repeating blaster
Sandtroopers, "Star Wars: A new hope". Completely scratchbuilt off of a metal toy pistol.
46: Dragunov SVD
"Stargate SG1", but there it had some kind of American scope. Mine is an AEG, which has a fully authentic Russian PSOP scope (which values more than the actual rifle). Used as pictured in "Reboot 57". I've kept the full costume intact.
