I'm taking a wild, and I mean wild guess here, but is it a pistol from Firefly?

Nope.  It's from an older SF movie.  Most consider a classic.

My guess is Blade Runner.. but I really don't have a clue.

I think it is Blade Runner as well

Yep - it's from Blade Runner.  Wanted one of these for awhile.  I'll discuss it and review it soon on the podcast.  Maybe this weekend on the LIVE show.

The wife thinks I have too many of those and now my 3yr old daughter is starting to understand daddy is a geek too....

Hey Rico,
     It's a beauty!  Is it a Coyle, if not whose?

Not a Coyle.  But sort of a knock-off.  I'm not a perfectionist for this prop and someone on the Prop Forum got a pretty good deal on some.  I'm planning to make a case for it too.

On first glance, I thought it was the Parks Sabers ".44 Cal" but I don't think so.

I'm looking forward to the full review and pics.

Nope.  It's a mix of metal and plastic parts.  Again, not the top of the line for this piece but it's nice looking I think.

That's the one I meant, they had a group sale a while back on the RPF for like $225?
Title: Re: New collectible just arrived for me
Post by: Rico on August 31, 2007, 05:20:39 AM
Actually $175.  Couldn't pass it up.

I completely missed that buy!  A good Decker pistol is definitely on my want list.
