Is that what they call a powerhead for a speargun ?
Na mate I think they call them pen pistols.
I knew what it was pretty much straight away.
You pull the nut back ....point and let it go.Was surprised to see it still loaded.

Well, thatll have to go down as one of your most unusual finds.

Agree with the - straight to the cop-shop decision, good find to get off the streets ?

If it is a pen pistol and you pull the nut to fire it... didnt they have the bullet loaded in the wrong way?.

Bullet goes in the tip...Screw it back on ...The bolt and nut is the firing pin...it's spring loaded. :Y:

Interesting find - looks newish and you probably walked over that spot a few times . Geez !!!!
Yep definatly a recent drop Dan.

Hand it to the cops it might be a piece to a puzzle at a minimum I'm sure they would like to know how recent.
