    Well the photo looks like a castle nut and tab washer/split pin holding a breech bolt through the forged breech end of an all in one barrel and breech unit and so it may be an old break-down from the middle of the last Century ? But as for the manufacturer I haven't got a clue . Where are Super Lakey and the $6,000,000 I.J. when you need them . Ha ha. Love threads like these . Atb: G.

    Hmm, I think it might be a pistol of some sorts.

    Exclamation What is it?

    Looks to me like a home made conversion to an old airsporter tap loader
    The armourer, with no where near as many guns as I used to have.

    I'm off to bed mate,but you seem to have drawn a blank from the esteemed collective knowledge viewing tonight...maybe the "experts" are down the pub....give us another clue tomorrow!

    If I didn't know any better....i'd guess at German manufacture?
