In the movie Nora gives Nick a spring pistol for Christmas he's on the couch shooting balloons off the Christmas tree with it. What I'd like to know is if anyone can figure out the make or model it could be. It looks to be a chromed frame blued barrel and wood grips. I did some frame caps

Hello, I haven't a clue what it is, I just know I would like to have one.
Looks kind of like it started it's life as a small rifle. (
Hmm, now that is an idea
!)
Interesting find.

Apparently you are not the only one to ask this question.

It may be a custom job also. I watched a program awhile back where some of the prop's, gun's pellet pistols etc. are custom made for the movie. They take stock a unit and mod it up for the movie. I could be wrong about this one here but that's what I've seen and heard. Ed

Are there any books out covering these older air pistols?
