Mandalorian Build, Anyone?

Posted on by Leave a comment

Studio Auctions got their hands on the screen-used blaster carried by Pedro Pascal in Season 1 of The Mandalorian that is set to have the gavel drop on it on April 5. Based on 1894 Bergman, unlike the guns used in the original Star Wars, it is fully cast resin rather than being a conversion of real steel.

I’m not a modern (Disney era) Star Wars fan, but in case anyone out there is and also happens to have a junk-grade Bergmann on hand or are good at 3D printing, there are some great detail images:

The listing, for posterity:

The Mandalorian, 2019-Present, Lucasfilm. The main sidearm of “The Mandalorian” (Pascal), this static blaster pistol was based on the rare Bergmann 1894, hence its name “1B-94″. Constructed of cast resin and expertly studio painted to resemble the Bergmann, this piece is highly visible throughout Season 1, always the Mandalorian’s weapon of choice. Highly visible on publicity material as well. Measuring approximately 14 x 7.25 x 1 in. Exhibiting production wear and handling. In very good condition.

The Many Different Faces of the Type 14

While bee-bopping around the Guns.com Vault I came across several different Nambu Type 14s and thought the variety was cool.

I say different because, when compared to the over a million P38s made in Germany during WWII by three firms, the Japanese produced less than 400,000 T14s over nearly three times as long in several types by Chigusa, Tokyo Arsenal, Nagoya Arsenal, Kokura Arsenal, Nagoya-Toriimatsu and Kokubunji.

That’s a lot of variation.
