Blade Runner Concept Blaster

This is a set of STL files for a 3D printed Blade Runner blaster concept design.

Background
Assistant Art Director Stephen Dane produced several preliminary sketches during pre-production of a gun that Deckard (Harrison Ford) was to use throughout the movie. The drawings all appear to depict a COP .357 or a derivation of it. In the end, probably at the direction of Ridley Scott, the COP was dropped as the gun to be used by Rick Deckard. Instead, the COP, in completely unaltered form, was employed as the weapon Leon uses to shoot the Blade Runner Holden in the famous opening scene of the film.

The 3D files for this concept weapon are very difficult to find so Duplex Designs have created their own version of this concept weapon.

We have seen this concept weapon being referred to as a folding design but we believe this is simply a mistake by the author for confusing Stephen Dane's drawing showing a dotted outline of the original COP 357 outline with the grip being shown in the 'deployed' or folded out position. This was never intended as a folding design although the barrel does 'fold' up so this is where the confusion may lie.

Another small detail to note is that most other models of this design show the front clamp part (Over the barrel hinge pin) and having all flat surfaces. We believe the Stephen's drawing shows what could be intentional ribbing on the lower rear surface of this part. As for the intended function of this part is anyone's guess but we have included both smooth and ribbed versions of this part.

The grip end cap has been included as a separate part so the builder can decide whether to create their replica with the grip as one solid piece or can use the end cap to represent a different material.

This model features a sliding barrel release latch so the barrel can be lifted up (As in the real-steel COP 357) to allow rounds to be loaded.
The concept drawings show this as much flatter than the one on the COP 357 so we have included both the original COP release latch and a flatter version closer to the drawings.

One other thing we have noticed is that some people are selling kits or built versions of this blaster but most seem to be very undersized. The concept design is obviously based on the COP 357 so this model is scaled to the full sized COP pistol.

Bonus: Also included is an SVG file for a stand. This design was created for laser cut 6mm black acrylic so you may need to adjust slots to suit your material or particular laser cutter.
