it will be a 5 shot revolver that uses .223 remington (no more ammo arguments, please)

 

the Steyr receiver on top is really nothing more than Hollywood make believe, (and from what ive heard, because i didnt remember, a laser pointer in the movie)

Here's more or less how it worked in the film: the gun that Deckard uses is a laser pistol (top barrel) and revolver (bottom barrel) combined. That's why it has two triggers. There are defenses the police use which render laser guns completely ineffective, so you can switch instantly to actual cartridges if you need to shoot somebody who's unlaserable. The LEDs on the side do something too, I think, although I can't remember what.

 

The rifle receiver being there is just how they built the prop gun, yeah. The revolver part actually worked, though.

Thank you for the info and links, Wreckless (I was wondering just what the hell the gas piston was till you told me)

 

And to other inquiring minds, I didn't make any mention of changing the .223 ammo capacity, so I'm not sure where that came from (unless you were looking at the comment toward upgrading the capacity for the SU-16. I wasn't meaning to imply changing the .223 pistol's capacity. Sorry if I was unclear). Anyhow, enough hijacking Vash's thread :)
