Has anyone ever made a completely metal, (as per the canon) 55 lbs proton pack?

I've seen aluminum packs and aluminum parts but I don't know about the 55 pounds thing.

The video game says it's a hundred pounds. But that may be because of the upgrades.

Do we know the pack is actually metal? It's probably safe to assume so but... Eh? I've wondered if there are any high density ceramics or other materials involved. Especially in the bumper.

My fiberglass and aluminum pack is 45 pounds. Or at least it was before I dramatically overhauled the electronics and batteries.

I remember reading in the 90's that the canon pack was 55 lbs.

As for metal. I always thought the pack was the same material as the trap and thrower, which show obvious welding.

And the look kinda says big heavy chunky metal equipment.

I'm thinking of getting a pack made and figured if I spend so much money on it it might aswell be as "authentic" as possible and be made of metal. (99.9% of it's life it will hang on a wall) anyway.

So I wondered if anyone had ever made a full metal one.

Not trying to sound mean, but if you tried going to the proper subforum (Proton Packs) and/or tried using the search function, you would have found these...
