Default Totally unexpected display of Borchardt C93

I don't know if you saw this pic.
I wonder if somebody has any story behind it?

Prototype for the Remington XP-100??? Ive owned several of them and contemplated adding a magazine to one. And a wood stock too.

Looks like a .22 bolt, barrel, & action modified to fit the Borchardt gripframe. Probably not a permanent mod but a simple screw-on adaption. The bolt is similar to my own Sears .22 single-shot bolt action .22 rifle. Pulling back on the rear knob cocks it.

The c93 frame grips look nice. I also hope it is reversible and safe for the Borchardt

Too nice. They (and the magazine base) look new. Like you'd find on a Craft Apple or Hartford C93 modelgun.

It doesn't look like the magazine would feed centerfire cartridges. Maybe .22's, if at all.

I have a CAW C93, haven't disassembled it in years, same for my Sears bolt action single shot .22. If I get some free time I'll look to see if it's a feasible accessory.

Any other pics of it???

No. I only saw this one.

I would like to get the full set of CAW Borchardt. But it seems easier to get the real one.

I have seen a reference that it is 1:1 with real Borchardt. I saw a video, a guy was one by one replacing parts in real Borchardt with shiny aluminum parts from the toy. And it all fit perfectly. I bet it,s mag would fit in the real Borchardt. And perhaps work?

And Hartford is ~10-15% smaller
