Scarce *Acvoke .177 Air Pistol by Accles & Shelvoke Ltd. AI 756. - AI 756 The Acvoke pistol was developed after the end of WWII . The post war market for air guns proved profitable, and the leading manufacturer in the field was ‘Webley & Scott’. Accles & Shevoke Ltd designed the Acvoke as a rival for the popular ‘Webley Junior’ pistol. The Acvoke was patented in 1946, although it was largely based on the ‘German Tell II’ air pistol. A distinctive feature that it folded when the pistol was broken. When broken, the pellet was lodged in the breech end of the barrel. The Acvoke was rather popular in the late 40’s and early 50’s because of its cheap price and very small, sleek design. This .177 example is in excellent condition for its age, showing some marks to the bluing on the cylinder, trigger/guard and cocking lever and the front sight is off centre. (See 'A Collectors Guide to Air Pistols by Dennis E. Hiller pages 8,9,10) The plastic grips have ‘Acvoke’ imprinted and are undamaged. The rear sight has ‘Accles & Shelvoke Ltd – Patent Applied For- Birmingham 6 ENG’ imprinted on it. Pellet Gauge is imprinted on the lever. The pistol cocks and fires crisply and its smooth bore is clean. A great piece for the collector. The price includes UK delivery.

**SOLD***Excellent/Boxed* Walther Mod.53 .177 Air Pistol ‘Luftpistole’. 21957 - 21957 The LP53 (LP stands for luftpistole – German for air pistol) is Walther’s early (1953-1983) .177 target pistol. It copies the lines of their famous .22 LR model 1936 Olympia II target pistol, and it uses a spring piston to compress the air. he LP53 is all metal with beautifully formed plastic grip panels. The early pistols had a beavertail extension that curved down over the web of the hand; later guns also had an extension, but it was straight. The trigger blade is thin and elegant – looking exactly like a firearm trigger. In fact, there’s nothing about the LP53 that doesn’t look right, which is why the movie posters for early James Bond films show him holding an air pistol instead of his service PPK. The story is that the photographer used the air pistol instead of Bond’s service (at the time) Walther PPK because they were in England where the laws concerning firearms are more restrictive. This example serial number ‘109497’ is in very nice original condition. The grips are undamaged, and the metalwork is near mint with only very minor rubbing to the front and the barrel from the cocking aid use. The pistol comes in its original cardboard box, cocking aid, user manual, Walther cloth badge and barrel tool. The pistol cocks and fires perfectly with a strong spring action. The price for this set includes UK delivery. NB As a post 1939 Air Pistol the restrictions of the Crime Reduction Act apply to the sale & delivery of this item. 21957. £0.00 |
