Hey rpf family! I never really joined the rpf for anything but star wars as I am a huge fan! But more and more slowly I am getting sucked in lol, I really just love building stuff! Anyways I really, REALLY LIKE "the good the bad and the ugly" maybe it's because the parts in starwars that where inspired by spaghetti westerns where my favorite, like boba fett with the spurs and his father the gun slinger, and Han solo just shooting up greedo and tossing him a coin "sorry about the mess" I don't know all I know is I really like westerns okay, anyways away with you procrastination and in with the question! I want to build a functional airsoft colt Navy from the dollars trilogy it needs to be under $50 us dollars and be sturdy, my idea was to buy a cheap airsoft revolver like this: http://www.evike.com/products/28227 steal the necessary parts to make an airsoft and transfer it into a cap gun body as they are often die cast metal, spaghetti western style pistols! My thinking is steal the grips and handle portion off the cap gun along with the barrel and attach it to the main airsoft body. And possibly reinforce it with a light coat of glass on the inside. Use some bondo to fill the seams and scratch build some details out of materials like sintra or possibly thin sheet metal. It needs to be fully operational! Other wise I would just buy the cheap engraved one for sale on ebay. I understand this is difficult and if it wasn't I probably wouldn't be interested in doing it, I like solving problems! Here is the link to the cap gun I'm thinking of using: http://m.ebay.com/itm/Cap-Gun-8-sho...volver-Made-in-Spain-/371505592474?nav=SEARCH thanks!
