That is also my understanding;


Nemrod Holster
US Divers Technisub Speargun

I didn't see were you guys posted what the actual Gun was..??? :facepalm...probably should be posted on this board, no?

Thanks Damax..and Steve.

"Technisub Pulce 40, There is a 60 version as well. Think this relates to barrel length in centimetres."

now someone go find one....I see some of you have already tried.

Do you know where I might find a good starter for a DL-18? (Skiff Guard Blaster)?

The base of the "DL-18" blaster is very similar to the Slavia Tex Air.177 break-barrel air gun.

Whether or not this is the actual model used I don't know, as there are various types of break barrel air pistols. Hope this helps!

Here are two sketches I drew up of the Blaster based on the photo refer

the only reason i say they wouldnt modify, it atleast as much as its going to require, is that its constantly out of veiw. it seams alot of work to put into somthing that you barley see.

While I respect this thinking, who is to say that it was meant to be 'behind the scenes' and more to the point, would the person designing the suit know whether boba would use his pistol for screen time? Or if it was even built specifically for boba?

I guess what im saying, is 'practical use' or 'screen' time, in a movie like this, you never know what its original intended purpose was.

Unbelieveablely cool week for ESB Fett reference!!!! :love

Is it safe to assume that the shroud (for lack of a better word) on the end of the barrel that says "PULCE" was removed exposing more of the metal barrel? It looks to be the case from the amount of the acutal barrel that is sticking out of the holster.

Again thanks to all who make these references possible for all!

While I don't have one of these yet, I would say that is a safe bet.
