There goes my gun: Aperture Science Handheld Portal Device in real life

Easily the most incredible cosplay accessory ever created, 'emilyskeith's real world Portal gun does everything just about perfect, and is so meticulously constructed I -- no lie -- can't tell how it was made by anyone other than Aperture Science themselves.
Update: You can see many more pictures detailing its creation via the constructor himself, 'Volpin', at his cosplay.com gallery.

That's really awesome. Do the little arms contract when you pull the trigger?
