Resident Evil: Extinction - Alice props/guns

[pinder91]

I'm putting together an Alice costume with my girlfriend and we are in need of some props/guns for the complete effect.

I've been looking into her watch, and it appears to be some sort of color variant of a Timex Ironman Triathlon:

I know that the guns are some sort of 1911, I just don't know enough about them to tell which.

The shotgun is something I know even less about. I'll let these pics do the talking and hope that someone can make it out. It looks like they used the same shotgun as in the second movie.

I have enough measurements and pictures of the kukhri that I should be able to easily make them. Supposedly 19.5 inches long with 9.5 inch handles.

The watch she uses is: Timex Ironman Triathlon 30-lap (T533319J) with the band switched out.

The shotgun from Apocalypse is a Mossberg 590 "Compact Cruiser"

What about the clothes... have you found them ?? or will you make them ??

Can you share those pics please ??? (I'd love to make it as well for my girlfriend... both versions, 2 and 3...) If you have any info about the clothes please, PM me .

the 1911s are high capacity 1911s with accessory rails.....
Paraordanance makes more of these than any other 1911 maker on the market, so you could check with them........ they also made the 1911s in the Hitman movie, and Alice's look similar to his...

I've started a thread about her outfit from Extinction here: http://therpf.com/showthread.php?t=37372

I'll send you a PM Benkenove.

Thanks for the info on the 1911's, David. I'll look into them.

I've sent an e-mail to Paraordanance concering the guns, so I await a reply. However, just from looking at their site, I'm leaning towards the PXT LDA Hi-Capacity being the correct gun.

There is a good shot in the film that shows the trigger on Alice's guns to be the normal style opposed to what is typically found on 1911's.

Here are some screenshots to help ID the guns:

Looks to me like you might have it ^right there^, with the exception of the accessory rail in front of the trigger guard. But the double-action hammer/trigger, dove-tailed front/rear sights, the beaver-tailed safety, the widened column to support the staggered magazine, etc, all seem to match up. 2 cents

P.S. I love the 1911 design, it's my absolute favorite. :love

thats called a LDA: Light Double Action........ the above screen cap confirms that with the LACK of a hammer, which is a tell tell sign of the LDAs....

but yes, they definantly have accessory rails

...the above screen cap confirms that with the LACK of a hammer...

For the sake of clarity, combined with my tendency to be a stickler for details, the pistols DO have hammers (they are just low-profile):



I'm sure you knew this full well, I just thought there might be some less gun-savvy members who might have misinterpreted your statement above...
