    Ok, so they're cap guns, but they work, have half the original "bullets", and one still has the ram rod. Trouble is, as they use black powder to fire a projectile I think they may technically be section 1!!

    Any thoughts on any of the above?
    If I remember correctly, the pirate guns didn't use black powder at all, the projectile was propelled by the blast from a large round cap going through a slot into the barrel.

    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?
