I've always liked it. I can't believe with all the gun freaks on here , no one has figured it out or just not shared the info maybe ?
Funny you say that. The last time it came up Rylo contacted me about making them and I started an interest list and i think like 3 people jumped on and that was it. Just not enough interest to make this happen. :cry

That expression on Luke's face looks creepy...
I'd like to get one eventually, but out of all the SW props, that one isn't at the top of my list.

I would like to have a Star Wars blaster prop one day. Hell will have to freeze over first for the replica rifle/pistol laws in Victoria to change first, although I saw a Australian based website selling replica Denix c-96 Mausers last week. They wanted AU$389 (US$349) for it...
So getting back on topic, yes, the Luke rifle is great. I have no idea how I would get it past customs.

They should have had a scene where he shoots it. I bet it would knock him on his ass like J in MIB. :lol

Yes... That's Sideshow's "Sociopathic Tendencies Luke" :lol
I think that stock...Or, um... Whatever you call that big triangular part that's sitting on the ground... Looks quite nice.
I thought it had been identified as an antique Arab musket. Probably a local acquisition in Tunisia (--antique Arabs are readily available there I would imagine).

It doesnt look too far off from a 17thC matchlock musket. Most of the stocks had that triangular shape to the butt and there were many variations.

Sorry to dust off this old thread but I couldn't find more info on Luke's Tatooine rifle. To me it looks a lot like this model rifle. NORTH AFRICAN (MOROCCAN) SNAPHANCE KABYLE "Camel Gun", ca. 1850s. What do you guys think?
