Short answer: no.
That's not the base revolver, which is a Charter Arms Bulldog in .44 special.

The bluing job on your Tomen is sooooo good. I can only hope mine gets close to that, when I get around to it.

Thanks 
Looking forward to seeing the result on yours, don't hesitate to write if there's anything about bluing you want to discuss...

Nope. There really isn't any replicas available for the charter arms bulldog. I have seen some older airsoft replicas, but those are extremely rare. You're going to want to buy a kit I think that already has the innards you need.
Thanks for the info, I've been looking just to get an idea of what's available. I've just seen another thread with a complete set of parts for a live fire version. Wow there's a lot of parts to find... ill save for a decent kit for sure. Thanks again
Noeland is absolutely correct the Kanamaru airsoft charter arms bulldog is near impossible to find for being over 30 years old I believe and the only one ever made. However if you do manage to get one and combine it with a Tomen kit the results are pretty special.
I'll add a link to the build thread if anyones interested.

There are several airsoft Charter Arms Bulldogs listed on Rakuten for reasonable prices. I've never ordered from them, so Caveat Emptor, YMMV and all that...

Those are actually craft apple works model guns, which I think is what was used to build the tomensuke blasters.
To my knowledge those are plug fire cap guns, not airsoft, and they are a pretty great price. I've never used rakuten, are sellers there willing to ship out of japan?
Interesting in all my time searching for a bulldog replica I never came across those at all.
Also here is the build thread for my airsoft bulid.

Warning this was my first build thread and as such it isn't very pretty hopefully though it will give some idea and insight into the modifications needed to be done and how to do them if someone should try their own build.

Just for fun...
About 4 years ago a friend of mine gave me this poor example of a recast made of resin. Pretty sure it's the same as what Adam refers to during his BR blaster video. All the details are wrong with weird greeblies in weird places. At the time I was just discovering what BR blasters were and had only acquired an Offworld. So I took to it, loosing the rubbish greeblies and giving it a paint job. You wouldn't believe how many coats of primer I had to use to fill all the air holes! In hind sight I should have kept it in its original state, but too late for that now.
More recently I picked up this retro sight and decided to put it to good use, creating my own BR blaster...
Nothing too clever here. Added the scope, laser, flash hider and torch with some spare model decals for the finishing touches. Turned out pretty cool.
Cheers.
