Thanks for this confirmation of the story 'from the horse's mouth'.
I find it hilarious that we airgunners know the world's most iconic fictional assassin is holding an air pistol that struggles to propel a .177 inch pellet at about 350 fps on a good day.
It would hardly put most Bond villains off their stride, let alone kill them. Unless it fired a dart dipped in curare, I suppose.
The photographer has pulled the ultimate trick on an ignorant public that thinks 'oh my God, it's a gun-shaped object, Run!' And he got clean away with it.
I'm not sure a 'break barrel PPK' would have taken us long to work out either, if they had bothered to shorten the barrel in post-production.
