Barbossa's flintlock, any one got pics?

[Rhett J Martin]

Started my next POTC build, and need to get a couple of conformation shots of Barbossa's pistols.

Anyone got anything good?

Thanks!

I've been waiting for someone to do this for years... I'll try to see what I can dig up

I don't currently have a scanner, but There is a great side view shot of it in the DK Visual Dictionary, I believe its a total duplicate pattern on the other side with the exception of where the striker is, and there is a good shot of that side also..

Then a good shot of the butt of the gun on pg 73 of "The Making of" book

ok, not scanned pics but my dig cam did a fair job taking pics from my books

Nice shootin' Tex! I've got most of those too, but there's definalty a few in their I don't!!

i do beleive he's got a popper bayonet on the one side too. I'll have to keep looking.

Can anyone grab screencaps? My copies of the films are currently in storage.


*** it's not a popper, just a long, thin belt clip****

i'll grab some for you next available op if you like
I'm currently researching the royal marine as my next project so the dvd isnt too far from the P.C.

Not sure if it'll be much help, but try here:

Look to the pics @ the bottom of the page and scroll to the right....it's there between a Selene pistol and SW blaster....

I love that guy's collection. I was very happy when I found out all those great Trek models were on their way intohis basement.

BTW, the pic was a huge help, I couldn't solve the mystery of the top . .now I can!

I love these POTC builds, they move FAST!!!

I can't for the life of me save this picture, so if you click the link, you can see a good shot of the bottom of the pistol

Thanks Cheech! got it!!

 

[allosaur176]

any updates?

 

[Rhett J Martin]

Yea! I'm working on it right now! I'm holding off on progress pics, cuase I've got the GB costume, and the Fett rifles goin'. But so far, so good on the pistol. I've got the main wooden body going, and I'll add things as the mood strikes me.

This site supplied some of the fire arms for the movies. I would guess there were a few add on pieces for this particular gun, but you may find the base here:

I am in need of more pics so I can finish off this build. Anyone got any?

If it helps any, the same gun was used in Cutthroat Island by Dawg years before. May help you get better photos.
