Anti Poaching Alarm Gun

Code: 12409

Dimensions:

W: 10cm (3.9")H: 112cm (44.1")D: 10cm (3.9")



Vintage Anti Poachers' Alarm Gun. Pushes into the ground and a cartridge is placed in the barrel. The trap is set such that when an intruder trips a trace line the weight crashes down and activates the cartridge causing a gun shot into the ground. Circa 1900.

All working but would be a bit slow to drop as the rod is no longer smooth. This is quite a tall one of these trip guns so would look quite striking mounted on a wall.
