Its a mess ,but I think I can fix all of this ,and make it more than just a resin kit ,but it definitely needs putty and alot of sanding to straighten all of it out ,a friend got it off of Ebay ,pretty cheap ,but I really wasnt too impressed with what all I have to straighten out and add to it !!!!!!!
 
Why are there differences?

Because one is clearly an inaccurate reproduction. Look at the trigger guard, the clip, the grip, the barrel, it just goes on and on...

...Which I guess means I spend too much time here. :lol

Anyway, it will be interesting to see what you do with the poorer one. Sometimes restoration projects can turn out really well!

Good luck! :thumbsup

I agree ,the hand grips are other pieces to be added ,the trigger guard is purely wrong I think...the clip part has to be put on too....I am no expert however ,this is going to be one pain in the neck,I wish I knew the maker on that unfinished one ,it was kind of my friend to get something like that ,know I am starting to wonder with the add-ons,if its even worth trying to take over where someone else left off........I dont know .......I ask him and he said someone on Ebay was selling theres but no box or anything was sent to him on this ,so I just held my head up and said thank you anyway.....the thought counts I guess........
