Wow. I am ****ing amazed at this listing. A 1940s Hiller Space Age Water Gun. It's listed on eBay at the moment with a $500 minimum bid. Check out this piece of history. I am saving this image, as I do not believe we'll ever see another again. It's a metal piston pressure gun, and appears to be loaded by a cap like some cheap pistols. It's an amazing find on my part I think.

Here it is

Here is the Antiques Roadshow listing. It's worth $5000!!!!

I've saved the image, too. Looks bizarre. Can't believe that's what squirt guns used to look like.

Wow, nice find! I think Ben was working on some articles on water gun history, but I don't know if he's heard of this one.
