It is indeed an Airsoft gun, produced by Elfin Knights (they're the company who recently did the Blade Runner blaster water pistols)

Thanks so much, Buzby!
I’ll put these photos and measurements to good use and PM you with any follow-up questions.

No problem, chaps. As promised, here's some drawings of the profiles used in the wooden sides of the frame. First the LH end rail and the top and bottom rails:
Note that at the RH end of the top and bottom rails a 1i inch wide by 2mm deep section (level with the top of the dark slide slot) is milled off to accommodate the aluminium end plate.
Nest the RH end rail. This has 2 slots milled into it, into which are placed double-sided leaf springs. Wooden battens are then placed on top of the springs and a strip of felt is glued onto the battens and the adjacent bar of the rail. The felt then forms a hinge, and when the dark slide is removed the springs push the battens up into a cavity milled into the back of the end plate. These form the light seals to stop light from the dark slide slot exposing the plate or film once the slide is removed:
The two yellow arrows point towards two thin slots cut into the top and bottom rails. The ends of the plate retaining inner aluminium plate fit into these slots (they are level with he top of the wooden bar the plate screws into). I couldn't get an accurate measurement as it's difficult to get a vernier into them, but I estimate they are 0.035in high by 0.034in deep and extend along the rail 0.595in (they are about 0.1in longer than the plate)
Here's the profile drawing, this time a top and side elevation:
I think I've pretty much measured and photographed everything (like I said, they are pretty complex little items), but if there's anything I've missed or you need clarifying just ask:

Holy crap - you’ve outdone yourself! Above and beyond... I’ll hopefully have time this week to bring my model up to speed!

Damn. Me too. Ugh. I hope he has a change of heart and does more soon.
He's starting on a new film and likely won't have the time for a while.
In that case, anybody have an extra? Haha. This is why you can’t ever take a break from the RPF.

I got an email from Etsy that my order has been canceled. Appears as if he entered in the wrong number of data cards available, so my order was canceled. :cry
Bummed out big time! As Nexus7 said, he's starting a new film. I reached out to him and he said he won't be making any more of these cards for the foreseeable future. Damn!

That's a REAL bummer. Hopefully somebody else will make them. I need some of that really futuristicky looking stuff for my display.

I need to review that scene in the movie. Remind me, is the screen-accurate book paperback or hardcover? I thought hardcover because it had the clear dust jacket.

Thanks! I picked up a hardcopy version for fairly cheap. The screen-accurate, ISDN #9780399504587 books range from $1400 to over $10,000 online!
