Would the water gun (middle pic) fit in a Raiders or LC holster?

The top pic: which holster would that fit into.

I'm liking the idea of a water gun!

Perhaps. The holsters I have are exact fits for the real things leaving very little wiggle room. If these toys are about the same size their real-life counterparts, maybe not. If they have been scaled down, however, there is a possibility.

Just my thoughts,
Pyro.

I think the first two are the "dollar store" guns. I own one of the type that I converted as I know others did too. To me they seem actual size and the post where someone converted it and compared it to a real S&W tells me it would fit great if you make it a 4' barrel

That pair on top is the dollar store revolver. I purchased 3 or 4 of these a while back. pretty clole, but a longer barrel (I had to modify mine), bigger grips, and it had a rear site, but hey, at less than one buck a pistol (i got mine when they had a closing sale), how can you beat that?

how difficult is it to convert that gun? I dont understand how
you changed the handles like that....did you take them off and then
cut them to size? then screw them back on? I would love to know
the process.

It is not all that difficult. Remove the handles, shape them with a small saw (the plastic is a bit brittle so be careful), attach them again and then let them be for a short while under hot running water until you can shape them. That way you can wrap them back around so that they will cover the frame again since there will be a hole/gap near the trigger.

This gun isn't accurate, but it screamed Indy :wink: when I saw it. $1.99 at a party supply store. It fires ring caps on a revolving small cylinder within the cylinder. Toy guns are neat. You can leave 'em out. Image

Call me crazy.
I think the guy may have just been saying he's interested in Star Wars stuff, so he's like a Star Wars geek. I don't think he wants to be addressed as "geek" though. :wink:
This is where Ren's next post wiill address me as "crazy"...three...two...one...
