British Brass

Yep, it's a guys pistol. 8.5" long sans bayonet, w bay 11.5".
The niftiest feature is that when you pull the trigger's casing, the spring-loaded bayonet jumps forward and locks in place. So, besides as a gun, it can be used as a blade, or as a impact weapon.
The only thing that I don't know how to fix: the brass catch below the muzzle is so worn down, that it wont engage firmly the friction clip on the blade, and the bayonet doesn't stay in place for long...
Otherwise its completely functional.

Fer, thanks for the info. I use the large pics on purpose. That way we can see the details better, although I realize it's a lil'bit upsetting.

Atlantia: tomorrow I may publish pics of my H. Nock boxlock. It' missing the upper jaw and screw of the hammer. If anyone knows where I can get a copy of them, I'm all ears. (BTW: Atlanteo used to be my nom-de-guerre at another forum. Good choice for a name! : ) )

Best
