Han Solo Force Awakens Blaster is HFC (and now also a Maurshin) m712 airsoft pistol

Re: han solo airsoft

Yeah there was one other thread about this. It's a new WE model M712, looking like it might be a replica of the TFA blaster because of the mystery plug

So, the correct one is the HFC 196 or M712 NON-blowback? And non-blowback means the hammer doesn't retract with the trigger?

Is that right?

HFC only makes a non-blowback M712 - the hammer moves with the trigger (double action) but the bolt cannot move and doesn't cycle after firing. Any seller listing an HFC 196 as being blowback has made an error.

Here's an interesting variant, plus they mirrored the shot.

Anyone know what they did for the grips? Looks as if they just airbrushed the ones on there for the stunt but the hero looks like real wood. Any ideas?

Here's a little something I put together:

Started with one of the cheap 712s off eBay.Some of the proportions are off of course, but it was good practice.

What began as a quick weekend project, ended up taking 3 months of Sundays. :(

I didn't get the pocket above the trigger quite right:

Didn't bother with a working hammer or trigger, but I did manage to keep the mag removable:

Scratch building the grill took a several attempts to get it to look right.

I started by gluing some fender washers, and making a mold and a resin casting of it:

Then cut and shaped the casting to fit the mauser, and made another mold and resin castings:

Stacked/glued 3 castings together:

Then cut it to the final shape:

Re: Han Solo Force Awakens Blaster is HFC (and now also a Maurshin) m712 airsoft pist

I just grinded down part of the left side and added this section of a resin casting

Huh. Never thought of just covering the side with a casting....

Anybody have any high-res screen-grabs from the digital download? I'm holding out for the blu-ray ...

Yeah the lightsaber thread is full of them but nothing here :(
 
Re: Han Solo Force Awakens Blaster is HFC (and now also a Maurshin) m712 airsoft pist

The first one I posted is interesting because it seems to be missing the safety and the small square tabs on the side of the gun. Also, the trigger doesn't look like it's from a HFC, although the mag does.

On the second one. part of me thinks that the hammer doesn't recoil like a functioning gun, but is maybe just stuck into place. The reason I say this is that in a lot of the Starkiller Behind the Scenes shots I saw of Harrison with the gun (where the tip is lighting up red) the hammer is always back as he's firing it. I think they made an electronic version with the hammer always back, and with a light up tip that is activated by pulling the trigger.
