Looks good!
Will this be nice and tight, or does it have the potential to become rattle-prone over time?
I’ve owned and built several Sidkits back in the day, and the pewter ended up becoming a bit of a problem when it came to screw threads easily stripping the soft metal.
Can I ask are the kits coming raw or finished ready to assemble?
I'm finally at the stage to start perpetrations on my run for the Metal Blade Runner Blaster based on AndersEFP designs, I have a build log of this project HERE that is now just over a year in the making.
This run will be made in batches of 5 at a time due to the work involved and my own sanity.
The run(s) will be for a DIY Kit made of Pewter and Resin cast of Anders design of Deckard Blade Runner Blaster. I encourage you to have a look at the build log to see how this blaster kit differs from other available kits and the changes Anders has made for this project that differ from his files that are available on Thingiverse
This is an image of the Prototype.

The main parts are cast Pewter, all the Black parts are cast Resin. This includes a resin cast Cylinder, I know a lot of you want a metal Cylinder but its just not possible for me to make one in metal. I hope this decision reflects in the price of the kit. The Barrel will be Aluminium. Also included are the Amber grips and x5 44. Special rounds. The rounds will look real with un-struck primers! they are however 100% inert. As I am in the UK I am forced to follow local law so the rounds will have a hole drilled in the side... once in the Cylinder you wont see them. Electronics for the mag and green side lights are also supplied. All holes will be drilled and tapped and bolts/screws are included.

I will update this post as it nears completion with more detailed info. I'm looking to price the kit at £350 (this could change) shipping will be an additional cost.
