Charter Arms AR7 Explorer rifle

[wuher da brewer]

I got the molds started for the three receiver parts today. I'll get the 2nd half of the molds poured tomorrow. I still have to build frames for the grip, barrel, and muzzle.

Just saw a complete AR7 with correct knurling at a gun show for $200. Would've been fun, but I didn't want to upgrade from my resin version THAT bad.

I've got one of the kits produced before. I got it in trade for some work I did. All the parts are there and it looks like a really clean casting. If anyone is interested in it let me know.

I didn't have enough resin on hand to fill the mold, so this was just a test. The receiver was made in three parts.

I'm hoping to be able to offer either grip. I'll be casting them next. I have the molds for the barrel with and without the muzzle setting up now.

I would like to offer the singlepoint. I've been trying to buy one for almost 2 years now but have yet to find what I'm looking for.

Ooooo.... keep us posted Evan. It looks like you've already got quite a few prop geeks salivating (your's truely inlcuded :cheers )

I agree with RedTwoX, Wuher. I may not have the scratch right away, but if I know I can get one from you down the line... What you've got is looking great already. I think we're going to have a lot more Hoth rebel pistols out there soon. Any chance they used them on Endor, too?

The Imperial Officer in the Bunker ("You Rebel Scum") uses a variation of this pistol. The muzzle is different and I believe so is the scope.

None of the Rebels on Endor (Except HJan and Leia) where shown to have a pistol. ?But a little creative license can fix that

I'm glad Evan picked up the ball and is running with it, my mold finally bit the dust.....

I only have two frames left and I'm hangin onto them like a hungry dog holds onto a bone

I'm glad to see my work floating around out there, glad people are getting some enjoyment out of them.
It was the most complex casting(s) I've tackled to date and I learned alot doing it.

can't wait to see some of these new efforts.

casters uber alles. :lol

P.S. it was a group effort over at the BBC to make these guns, there was alot of people working on this.
can't take all of the credit, not by a long shot.
