I want a side of his blasters as well

Can anyone ID the scope on the blaster?

Can anyone ID the scope on the blaster?

Its loosely based on the Single Point scope but it has a straight front instead of a cone and is about 78% in scale

The blaster as mentioned shares design elements from the 1851 and 1858 revolvers, based on the pistols used in the Good the Bad and the Ugly etc.

I have done extensive photo scaling and found the length of the blaster by matching it to screenshots and photos. The blaster measures about 14 3/8" to 14.5" long. Another member has already modelled a decently accurate version based on the available reference. We don't have super clear shots yet.

I imagine the scope was all fabricated as well

 

[pandatrooper]

Yes, they use reference of vintage weapons but it’s mostly all 3D now

I believe that instead of the Colt Paterson revolver (which has a barrel with 6 flat sides), that this based off of the successor to the Paterson, the Colt Walker (which has a round barrel exactly like Cad's). And since this is actually the pistol used in Good, Bad, and Ugly (as shown above) I think is it.
And as SW has done so many times, they have modified from the original. (It's obvious from the images from the episode, that Cad's pistol is not a cylinder revolver....so if you cut the entire cylinder section off of this gun, move it back, and add a small raised block onto the flat section, and then remove the trigger guard, I believe you would have Cad's gun exactly. I love scratch building, kit bashing, or modifications to get to a new/original piece just like the propmasters at Lucas do. I'm pretty sure this is what they did.

That pic is from The Outlaw Josey Wales. The Colt Walker is way way larger that a Colt Army (I have one) and I think an Army is the more likely to be the inspiration or platform.

What Patreon is doing these blasters?

Mystery Makers, he does really solid work. The Dune sand compactor that Adam S reviewed was his.

Here's the one I made for comparison. My own model....with working trigger. I'm OuterRimWorkshop on ETSY.

 

[Ed Straeker]

I've also came with my version!

 

[Halliwax]

Wow! Wicked nice!

I know it's on the original prop, but man that ram-rod on a blaster just leaps out at me as silly.

But the fact that the original prop includes a design flaw does not make the work folks have done here in recreating that prop any less amazing. Well done!
