    Steve Harper Micro Pistol

    Does anyone remember these, or better still have one? I have thought about contacting Steve to see if he still has any drawings or castings for them, but don't know how to contact him.

    Before anyone gets their knockers in a twist these didn't use the TAC cartidge, just the air tank part which screwed directly into the barrel. As a result they aren't covered by the Brocock ban.

    That’s an intriguing little pistol! How is it operated - it looks like you screw in the bolt at the rear of the action, which can’t be the most effective means of firing!
    I had a Saxby & Palmer and Brocock revolver on FAC for a number of years, but handed them in as I simply wasn’t using them enough to justify space on my ticket. I ended up replacing them with firearms which were much more “dangerous” than a 6ft/lb air pistol! Are these pistols exempt from the S5 classification on Self Contained Air Cartridges because they can’t use the cartridge with the pellet cap, so are not “self contained”?

    I believe that is indeed the case.
