I'm guessing that might be one of the Chinese clones, Baz.

Ido have a lp53 pistol and the serial number starts with 007.Alas it dates from 1954 but never the less any one seen a 007 No or owns one on here.

Strained my tongue trying to pronounce it.

The gun in the movie poster (which is a pen and ink drawing, not a photo) just looks to me like a badly-drawn LP53. Or a High Standard .22"LR, or similar.

I thought it might be a P38 or something with an LP53 barrel - maybe a nod to the Connery LP53 poster?

Diana no.5 in goldfinger featurete http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Air_Guns#Diana_5_Air_Pistol they list a crosman 2240 too but I belive it's not a 2240.

With a serial number of 54159 dates the J BOND pistol as being made in 1962 which correctly pre dates the film.

That drawn poster is very abstract and includes many other things such as scenes from the film, and the pistol in that could be anything, BUT, I remember that in the day there was also a photo shoot picture of just Roger Moore in the Connery pose, and it was with a FWB 65, and it was said to be because the photographer had upgraded.

Interesting, Robin.
