    Yep, which is still section one isn't it? I know the "Gambler" spud guns dissapeared from sale and they used the same propellant.

    I'll probably buy them next week if they're still there, it's a nice little set.

    Yes at that price you should.
    They are very common, but not boxed and complete.

    As for section one, I doubt it.

    I'm just sooo popular!

    Can anyone tell me anything about the pocket pistol? Is difficult or worthwhile to repair?

    Did it cock and dry fire (carefully)? These pocket pistols have a large spring in the frame at the grip. Quite often they are missing or too weak to function because of their age.

    Could be worth a repair but not at £80. That is about its value working.
