He thinks it's cool since he never had a chance to correct the trigger guard. I despise Frankengun pics, but I can do it, probably steal a Beretta 92SB guard and merge it on. What do you guys think? I have permission from the gunowner to alter the pic and it would be correct for the film (well, more correct since it isn't the exact same pistol as in the film so I suspect there are more tiny differences).

The new photojob on the trigger guard is a good edit but the original one looks removable and held in place with pushpins. Asides that, does the armourer do Podbyrin modifications to Desert Eagle pistols on request?. | |||

Revision as of 23:33, 4 June 2009
I'm assuming the Podbyrin 9.2mm you snapped a shot of is from VIP, not Red Heat, since the trigger guard shape is different. None the less, a great job. - Gunmaster45
- Good eye!! (and that is why I did NOT say 'screen used' on the pic for the Red Heat Page ;) ) The original gun is 'who knows where?" This is a copy built by a gunsmith who was a fan of Red Heat from a 357 DE Frame. It's pretty darned close and I had to photograph it when I saw it. There were SOME problems which had to be photoshop fixed, the extended lever for the safety was cracked and a part of it was missing (the gun has a plastic part for this piece), so it was 'restored', the barrel was really scratched, not from firing, but from a mishap where the gun was dropped from a pretty good height (arghhhh), but you know how I don't like photoshop creations from scratch (for the obvious reason that I don't want people thinking that we're just 'drawing' our weapons and not procuring the real guns and actually photographing them). But I usually photoshop out massive scratches or other things or ugly rust marks or thumbprints (when I can't wipe down the gun first), or cracks in old wood, etc. Thanks and when I can get to the original Red Heat gun, I will definitely take a pic of it, but right now I believe that this is the best photo of the Podbyrin anywhere on the net. BTW, it takes a real Hardcore movie FAN to replicate the fake armory markings that the original movie gun had, like this guy did. :) I'm pretty sure the fake S/N is the same as the screen used pistol in the film.

- Wow, that's a nice picture. Trigger guard aside, it's really cool we have a picture like that. Thanks so much. -MT2008 23:18, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
- Man, I knew it wasn't the original. The original has a P38-style rounded trigger guard, right? Man, though, getting this is awesome. Awesome job, man.-protoAuthor
Hmmmmm. I spoke to the original owner and suggested a 'frankengun' fix'
