A neat little pocket pistol from WW II.

Believe it or not I had one of these as a kid in the '40s. Traded some kid from the projects a working cap gun for it. It was missing most of the internal action parts and the grips and was wrapped in tape. Once it was cleaned up and Dad made a set of walnut grips for it, it shure looked real. It was my "play war" gun during those years. I could get 50-100 loud "Bangs" out of it without reloading just like in the movies. Funny, I never had any trouble carrying it anywhere in those days as a "toy" pistol. (I guess nobody knew it was actually a real gun that this kid had.)
