This is a project that I have wanted to do for ages, and as Teppo kindly gave me his spare parts

it is time to start.

This will be called The Bastard, bringing FE and SD parts together

Looking good, Pete!

danjaq_0ff · January 2012

Cheers Mate, hopefully it will be ready next weekend -{ fingers crossed

nms75 · January 2012

Sir Miles · January 2012

That's shaping up to be something special -{

very cool! -{ :007)

ever since I saw the comparrison pics that were posted
up a while ago, of the SD and FE guns together, I
thought some day, I think theres going to be a hybrid of
the parts

looking forward to seeing the finished prop,

I am wondering how the build to weight ratio might be,
as I remember many saying the FE gun was very light in
weight and the SD gun having handled a few etc is
fairly heavy, just wondering about strain on say for
example, a heavy SD lighter and slide out breech on an FE
Cigarette case handle... I am not saying thats what your
choice of parts are, I am just curious as to how it would
effect the structure and construction?

my guess would be an FE lighter and slide, an SD pen,
an FE handle cigarette case and an SD Cuff Link, maybe?

great work as always! I take it a space will be created in
The Golden Gun Cabinet Display for The Bastard?

You are truly the man with the Golden Gun'S :007)

That being SaiD......Roll on with "The Bastard"

danjaq_0ff · January 2012

I knew who you meant

, though Bastard is rather tame

danjaq_0ff · January 2012

Im afraid if I roll on it, I might flatten it

danjaq_0ff · January 2012

Cheers Mick, very kind of you mate -{ I will let Singe answer your technical questions as I have no brain

all I care about is what it looks like in one piece, Im weird, I only like to look at my stuff, I'm not really in to playing. saying that, it will still strip down as Singe didn't like the idea of using blutac

.

You are correct on the components -{

As far as technicalities go, FE's golden gun's lighter is substantial enough to support the weight of the heavier SD components. I'm guessing FE have cast the light components with threads included in the dies, either that or their tap is a little oversize lol. The threads are a little loose, but still fine to receive the SD pen.

One note is that the threads are not the same (would be nice wouldn't it?) so some modification is needed, not for the faint hearted.

Still, with a steady hand and a true lathe, you can achieve quite a cool effect. With the SD pen being bored right through, you can open the breech of the FE lighter and see straight through to the muzzle (nice to see some light at the end of the tunnel for a change) although I've yet to work out where the firing pin is supposed to be

scaramangasgoldengun · January 2012

) nice one! and thanks for giving me the technical run down Q!

really looking forward to seeing the finished item :007)

As for the firing pin, I wouldn't have a scooby 8-) Give me the old
Firing Range Any day Quartermaster
