Quite a unique toy pistol Silver, considering it has the Aussie labelling. I reckon a majority of them would have been either from asia or the US back in the day.

A couple of good hunts
I like the gun too, doesnt matter about the other side you can only look at one side at a time anyway
That button is cool , havent seen that one on here before
And a silver to finish off

That latest gun after a bath with water and a gentle rub with a green brillo pad.
the wash has loosened up the trigger nicely, but I think any spring mechanism has rusted away.
spot the difference lol.
You can see the otherside has that bit missing on the barrel.
heres a closeup of the missing bit space for anyone that just needs to see it up close for life to flow smothly lol :Y:
still has that dirty out of the ground patina going on
I'm quite enjoying finding the odd pistol every now and again as an enjoyment of its own aside from single silvers (mostly lol) :Y:
edit in:- the thing I did notice about the gun is that it has no provision at all for a roll of caps to be inserted at all, so it was either pull the trigger and yell bang (like we all did when there were no caps) or, it had an extra bit maybe to hold just one cap at a time ,... of that I'm not sure.
here's the business end shot.
