Re: The Expanse: Prop Weapons
I have to dig out all the XD Airsoft pistols - but here is a pic of a few. All though BLUE GUNS does not make the exact XD 40 as the WE Airsoft pistols like the Advance Glock 26 - they do make standard versions for those who might want to scratch build the rest of the parts. I will be casting the The Scratch build gun sights and airsoft will be cast separately and could be used to convert a rugged blue gun version - but the BLUE GUNS are made of some type of flexible rubber/resin composite that does not bond well with other resin parts. Painting the blue guns is a problem because paint tends not to bond with the surface. I am casting the whole pistol from the airsoft masters.
Can anyone identify the BLUEUGUNS type resin? It is strong and flexible. It is extremely durable and the resin would be perfect for "Trooping." But i do not know how to bond one piece to another. Epoxy fails after it drys. Superglue fails off after it drys.
Here is a picture of some of the base guns including the Tokyo Marui and the WE Advanced Glock. The Blueguns will hold paint with a primer coat - but will not retain it like the Smooth On Resin. Any ideas?

BLUE GUNS are copyrighted products. Casting the airsoft for a cannon prop replica should be fair game. Adding the cast prop pieces to the airsoft gun is possible - but would be difficult and ruin a $ 150.00 - $ 200.00 Airsoft Pistol. I want the Resin master to paint and apply decals Cannon to the Show as a Replica prop.
