Not sure when it was built. I have a drawing also with the pistol like it was being designed on the show maybe. It is base on a housing from a Remington XP100.

Can anyone help me ID this prop. I have the shop construction drawing also when it was built but it does not have a show name on it. Thanks

From that picture the hole in the cover looks larger that the hole in the frame and I can see NO threads cut into it from the bottom.
