    Skip find, unknown pistol, valuation

    Found the item below (if pics work) in the skip at work today and i must admit it's got me a bit flumoxed, it would appear to be in "used" but original condition although the sights may be an aftermarket add on but they do fit very well and enhance its' looks. The calibre at a guess is 2.2 (sic) and the gun itself is of a variable pump up design.

    Can i retire early on this one?

    Wow! That's an old design. Originally made to shoot skelingtons in "Sinbad, this time it's personal!" the skelington gun is almost unheard of as most were lost in a shipwreck caused by a plasticine monster.

    It's a left hander so probably a bit less "sellable" than the more common right handed version.

    What a shame it's missing it's original sights

    A plus point though is that happily it has the very rare optional 5-stage trigger

    Opportunity is missed by most people, because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.

    Looks to me like a prototype skeleton stocked Dow Corning Paradigm, circa 1983. Got to be worth all of £1.37p

    New Gun

    I have to say I AM SHOCKED, even the mods been on this and have allowed the advertisementof weapons of mass destruction.

    The "SCRE...." compressor mastic in 1.75 inch calibre is well into the Section 5 bracket
    The armourer, with no where near as many guns as I used to have.
