Pics of my new Indiana Jones Prop Gun!!!

[Dr. J]

Hey all,

I just received this prop replica from Artsee1 and it is AWESOME... It's a perfect replica of the Stembridge version of Indy's .455 used in Raiders of the Lost Ark. Specifically, the scene in which he hands his gun to Belloq outside of the temple (and hands over the golden idol) and the close-up when he throws his gun in his suitcase. It is cast in resin and hand-painted to look like it's seen some action. It weighs approximately one pound and has no moving parts. I've shown it next to my real Smith & Wesson Hand Ejector 2 (Bapty version) for a comparison. Enjoy.

Wow. Looks good. Both of them. I see why the S&W was chosen for the Bapty version. If you could customize the front sight of your S&W, it would be a 98% match for the ROTLA gun.

Which one is which...?

Thats a nice looking replica, the weathering is perfect.

Nice.

Yes, the weathering is fabulous.

Weathering is something I perosnally find difficult to do and make it look realistic.

Which gun needs customizing? Both front sights are accurate for the ROTLA revolver. There were two guns used afterall.
