Found my first GUN!

[treblehunter]

Toy gun that is, ha lol. I spent four hours back there, I must of seen 200 bottles, mostly all are modern with threads.
I found a Pepsi, Clorox, Coke, Bell mason jar complete with porcelain liner and lid, Nehi, Wm. Franz, and a old Bacardi rum bottle that I think is a 1903
The gun is a western that the trigger still works and is almost complete (broken hammer tip, and plastic grip) Oh yeah a EverReady flashlight.
I foresee a lot of digging in my near future, I have to get to the bottom of things

Thanks everyone, guns are very popular on TNet, you would have thought I found the "arc of the covenant" (hope they find that on the oak island curse tonight on TV)
Haaaaaaaaaaaa I'm going back for more today, little slow coming out of the gate. I'm so out of shape, need to get my digging muscles back again.
Thanks for looking and commenting, HH

Item:8623082 1960 Hubley WESTERN Toy Cap Gun For Sale at GunAuction.com
I found it this morning on images search, Pretty amazing that I found the exact gun, there were so many different ones

It says
franchised bottler: Pepsi-cola bottling Co. Wilmington, Delaware

I originally found 4 of these. I sold 2 for $12 dollars each . Collectors like how they're local.

Got your first gun in the states, you must be about 10 then !!. Only joking, honest

I called the Clorox company and they told me that the brown bottles were made from 1945-1960.

You got me thinking. I wonder if the clear ones are older then 45' or after 1960?

There is a website out there for clorox bottles.
