    The air pistol that never was

    About 6 years ago I made 5 prototype pistols based on the gun used by Sir Christopher Lee in The Man With The Golden Gun. These were originally intended to fire Brocock air cartridges but unfortunately they were banned before I could do this.
    I have posted a few pics showing the only one I have left. The others were sold a few years back.
    The gun is assembled from a cufflink a Watermans fountain pen a Colibri lighter and a Colibri cigarette case. All were made from solid brass and then 24 carat gold plated. It can fire plastic caps.Thinking of making a single shot CO2 version but not sure yet.
    Thanks for looking.

    Excellent - looks good. Shame you can't go down the Brocock route anymore. Wonder if there's any really small cylinders out there for you - could be a niche market with your guns.

    Is there any way to use the reservoir in the lighter for gas via the refill valve?

    Superb! If you decide to produce a CO2 model then please keep us posted.
