Tiny Metal Gun
« on: July 14, 2013, 01:58:02 pm »
Hi all,

This tiny metal gun has always fascinated me! It has a full functioning trigger and firing pin, and 'breaks' too (as seen in the photo).

As you see from the photos I have scaled it to a Great British One Pound coin: it's tiny!

Any ideas?

Kind regards,

Clint

This is illegal in the UK...unless you hold a valid FAC certificate....if you were caught with this..without a valid certificate..you could be liable to a maximum sentence of up to 5 years imprisonment.....an d as this forum...is open to everyone..then...i,d advise you to think carefully...

Are you selling this item? I collect vintage and antique guns. I don't know about this one but it is eye catching.  Is it real? It looks like a cap gun?

may i suggest you look at the link...posted by ..Rauville...when you open the link..scroll down and click on the English translation...and you will see that it is a real gun, and it can fire a projectile....and because of this, it is classified as a firearm here in the UK...which makes it illegal...as pistols are not allowed in the UK..and owning this tiny example,could still get you a 5 year prison sentence...do you still want to buy it...... ;D

Yes because I live in the USA, San Antonio, Texas to be exact. If that would be legal to date and mail to me I'm all for it as guns of this age over here are 100% legal even without a permit to buy and sale and trade.
