My obsession with cloning firearms that nobody except me noticed continues. Since I now own both regular blued and electroless nickel German-made SIG-Sauer P226s, I decided to clone the P226s from the movies "Bad Boys 2" and "2 Fast 2 Furious" by swapping parts between the two guns:
I'm still pretty sure to this day that Independent Studio Services made both guns for both movies (which were both filmed at the same time in Key Biscayne) by doing the same thing I did with at least four of their guns. Not that anyone cares except me...
Also: I'm not sure what MPM2008 had trouble doing the same thing when he made the pics that we have on the IMFDB pages for those movies. Maybe because his blued P226 has the K-Kote finish which threw off the tolerances on the parts?
