daryl
a strange beast it is, many thanks for the pic john ATB
the cocking linkage looks rather crude rather like that of a relum tornado but the stock looks like it's from one of the very early chinky pistols, mebbe it's a frankenpistole
i'll bet it's nice to have though as i don't reckon anyone else will have one
it would probably make a good talking piece whilst having a barbie and a few beers
i reckon it's not the original stock, it looks as though the original would go further forwards to cover the union of the cylinder/barrel.

When I was a lad!! My best friends elder brother had one, we used to shoot nails out of it at his dads apples!! Very popular we were as you can imagine. I think these came in from europe, probably a Slavia looking at the grip
I used to have one that looked like this I thought it was a Relum it had a metal shoulder stock which was standard , the stock is the only part I still have !. The stock fitted into two holes in the rear of the pistol grip.
here's another pic that muzzle sent me (must be going blind as well as senile cos i missed it)
the swing out breech

you can see the two holes for the shoulder stock in the last pic

It's an awful old Relum like Carter and Daryl said. I used to have one like it. Terrible harsh firing action and if you didn't hold tight the recoil would send it flying. The loading gate was a bit leaky too. Fire this and then an FWB 65. Next thing you'll do is put the Relum in the bin and try to forget you ever held it.

In British slang an anorak is a person who has a very strong interest in niche subjects.
Hey Garvin, you don't have old guns to shoot them, you have them 'cos they are rare, unusual, you love them etc etc etc, throw it in the bin! Tut tut, give it to a discerning collector like me!!!
