I have a lay out for the guys that what to make their own 1:1 rifle. This is the barrel tip. I'll post more things to come in the future, but lets start with this for now.

Someone needs to replicate the whole thing 1 for 1. Hope this becomes avail for us CYLON perfectionists.

What about the bayonet under the barrel?

It is in the photo gallery already, but I guess I should put a ruler next to it to make sure a print out of it is the right scale.

I guess I need to get the ruler out. I did make an outline I posted of the bayonet a while back. Here is a close up photo of the barrel tip, and the bayonet section.

Would love to see some photos of the work as you build up the rifle. It would be cool to post a little build up story of the project. Kind of a step by step story of wood and plastic classic Cylon rifle.

I don't have a rifle on my suit either. That diagram of the barrel tip helps. I personally know more than one person that are full time costume / prop makers as their full time job, so I'll probably have one of them sculpt up a rifle for me, then be able to either make resin copies, or vacuumformed halves like you guys said the originals were. I already checked with C.O.R.A. about Dale's side details molds he had and he said he can't find them at the moment, so not sure what we'll do about that part. Heck, if we had access to an original rifle, we could cast that one up and then all of us Cylon costumers would have the most accurate guns to use with our costumes.

A rifle would be a great item to enhance the costume! Idle Cylon hands you know, could spell doom for the Colonies :twisted:

I wonder if the original Cylon rifle stocks were made of wood or plastic?
