Yep Svander, I know who's Adam Savage (ASavage on the RPF, btw)and it seems that Riskbreaker is not him (as Noeland pointed out the diff between the guns)  |

My guess is that this is his. Unless there's another movie propmaker somewhere that decided to scratch-build his own blaster by hand. How likely is that?  |
Much more likely than you can imagine. There are more than a couple on here alone, and many more that are doing it behind the scenes and out of the spotlight. Mainly because of possible legalities with gun ownership and alteration. Than there is the infamous LA display case gun that was once thought to be a back up hero, but turned out to be fan made. I also know of people in other countries that have made them including England and Japan. One of the first, Craig Kovach also made more than one. Adam's is one of many.
Adam does lurk here once in a while though. Wish he would finally join officially and school us all.

| I remember that Riskbraker said that he'd mentioned, to his gunsmith, the thread about the L.A. display case gun...so far, we haven't gotten any info as to who built it in the first place |
